Who The Son Sets Free Is Free Indeed!

Bring your shackles. Bring your stresses of life. Bring your troubles for the world. Bring your sadness. Bring your passion. Bring your treasures. Bring it all to him. Yes, take it to him. He (Jesus) cares for you. Even if you have just a mustard seed of faith. I can tell you that you need to bring it all to Jesus and trust he will move mountains for you and me. He can take it all. He has already taken up the cross for you and me. Give it all up to him. It is time to get ready for the revival. Jesus Christ the king of kings is, coming soon. Just know Jesus is for you and not against you. Give him the Glory no matter what you are facing. Bring it to his feet. God has given his son for you and me. Do it today please do not wait to come to him. Believe God loves you no matter what your physical challenges are. I can only share what I know from the Bible God’s word. He can not lie. His word is alive and active more today then ever. As this world is in a crisis. It is a world Crisis. Just know God is controlling it all. The Government is a part of this world. However, if you are a believer you know that we are in this world but, we are not of this world. We know that God has it all. Yes, because we are a part of the world, we need to follow rules and the law. God wants us to not turn on each other. He just wants us to seek, him out. Today more them ever. Look for his everlasting love. Bring your burdens to the throne. Trust what you cannot see. Faith is walking without sight. Jesus will not stop the troubles of this world. They must happen for his Glory to come. However, if you and everyone around us. Would just look up to him. His mercy will be new. God wants the best for all. That is why he put his own son on the cross. When in the Old Testament we could not follow the law that he gave. He loved and still loves us so much that he Put his son on the cross. God made his perfect son. Suffer for our sins. He knew no one else could take the burdens (sins) of the world. Sit with God today! I know I have troubles of my own today. However, I want to let you know that I do believe God is working. No matter what.  Believe me today my heart is breaking. My dad is not perfect at all. I have my troubles in my family. As we all do. I at this time I cannot go home. I do not drive. Believe me if I did, I would be on the road on the way home to my family. For my dad is extremely sick. He is dying. Yes, he is dying. Thank God no matter how much he is in pain and suffering. No matter how there is no cure for his cancer. No matter how he is crying out for help.  I want you to know HE is giving God and Jesus his son The Glory for it all. The devil I believe is trying to work in his head currently. With all of his pain

I say this because I am not sure what he is hearing in his head. But I am told he is speaking out to God. I am told by my sisters and brother. He just wants prayer as we are in the room with him. As they pray with and over him. There is a peace that over comes him.

Now there may be one of you reading this saying if it is that bad. Then where is your God Now! Believe me he (GOD) is alive and well in that room. We just need to praise God. For I am believing that Jesus loves us so much even in our pain. Currently, the devil is just trying to play with my dad. He is thinking just like you. However, to me and my family this is more of a testimony about how one knows Gods Word and knows to stand on it even more. He my dad is again not perfect. But he is saved and a child of God. No matter what. He has always stood on God’s word. I know this is not fair to see someone you love to be in this much pain. I do not like it at all. Not one bit. However, God is a good God. I have seen God work in so many ways. For he is a way maker. I do believe his will is being done with my dad. I say this because it is amazing to watch someone be in so much pain. And still give love, honor, and Glory to his maker. I have been on the phone with him days and weeks before this. I have had bible talks with him. It is amazing to here him. Keep on sharing the word with me. He does know he has made a lot of sins in this world. For that is not for you and me to judge. For we all have sins. He knows Jesus died for him. I just love how we just talk about the goodness of the Lord.  I do believe even through this time of hard ship. I will turn this time of sadness into a God (Glory story). I see it in a man that is not perfect at all. I watched this man (my dad) love the lord all of his life. I cannot remember a time that he was not sharing the word with someone. So even through this time of hard ship. It shows the power of having faith in The Lord. I do think this is also a lesson for all. What I mean by this is while he is in pain. He also is praising the Lord with his words back to him. So, as I hear and know this what it teaches me is GO SEAK JESUS OUT! GO READ HIS WORD! For when the times get hard. For you do not know how you will leave this earth. IF it will be a painful one like my dad’s. What I can tell you is if you know his word. Then you can put on the armer of God. It is the hardest thing to watch. Watching someone you love to suffer and know there is not one thing you can do. However, my family is doing something. Giving a Hallelujah to The King of Kings! The lord of Lords! The Alpha and the Omega! To Jehovah Gyri! The Messiah! Jesus Christ our Lord and savior! that through it all we will always serve the Lord! Yes! It is hard but it is the truth. God has my dad and all of my family in the palm of his hands. The devil has no place in That home in that family. My brothers and sisters and I are awfully close however, this struggle is allowing us to get even closer. Not only with each other but with Jesus Christ our Lord.

As I write this story today about my dad and my family and the love we have for the Lord. I pray you see it is a story for you to go seek the Lord out. Do not go one more day without giving him Jesus Christ! The Glory for all things. I pray that for you today.

Dear heavenly Father,

I com boldly to your throne. Currently, the Guffanti Family is struggling watching their Father suffer however, I pray that my story that I blog today shows my readers. That no family is perfect. No one will escape the troubles of life. Even during death. But the love you have for your children is endless. Especially, when no matter what is going on, we seek you out. That we first get saved by knowing that your son did die for our sins. Then starting and having a personal relationship with you and your son. Again, we do not become perfect after that but, we try to be more like your son Jesus Christ.  I do know as this is a hard time, I will always Glorify you in the mists of it all. I will see my dad again. Where there is no pain and suffering. There is peace soon for all your children. I just hope this message of hardship if it hits one person. To seek you out then I feel it was just what needed to happen. to bring that person to you. For them to be in your kingdom for the rest of their life.

Please let your will be done with my dad. For I do know you are working better then we could ever do. Even in his suffering.  I do know He loves you (my dad). We thank you for your mercy, and that it is new every day. That also know that you gave us the gift of grace. That we have your word during the good and bad times to stand on.  I do love you. Please Father when you are ready take him home Lord. I will miss him, but I am honored to know I will be there soon. Please stop his suffering for he loves you! We give you the Glory for all that we are going through. Please give my mother the strength to be ok after his passing. For we are not a perfect family however, we will serve you all of the days of our lives. I love you Lord! Thank you for your son. Yes! Who the Son Sets Free Is Free Indeed! Thank you 😊

 

In your son’s name Jesus Christ, we pray Amen!

I leave you today with this bible verse from Jeremiah 29:11-14

¹¹ For I know the plans I have for you”—this is the Lord’s declaration— “plans for your well-being, not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. ¹² You will call to me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. ¹³ You will seek me and find me when you search for me with all your heart. ¹⁴ I will be found by you”—this is the Lord’s declaration—“and I will restore your fortunes^[a] and gather you from all the nations and places where I banished you”—this is the Lord’s declaration. “I will restore you to the place from which I deported you.”

Today’s Ramble However, A Blessed One!

Today, is just a Ramble on blog. I am sure I will have you thinking at the end of today’s post.  Did you ever think what if this or that? Well, I do not do much of the what if game. For me it makes no sense to play that game.  I know that there are cards that I have been dealt. I am always thinking how do I move forward. With the cards I have been given, for my life.

I as a believer in Jesus Christ. I know it says in the Bible I was never promised an easy life.  That every day I must die to self. That I need to be more like Gods son Jesus Christ. I need to decrease so Jesus can increase in my life. John (3:30), Now, because we are here on earth we are faced with a sinful world. I try not to be like the world is. Because, I am taught by Gods word. That I am in the world but not of this world, Romans (12:12). This may all be a cliche to a non-believer however, as you have read: I am a believer in Jesus Christ.

I do believe he came to save you and me from the sins of the world. I pray as you do read my blogs. If you do not have belief in him you, do seek him out. For I really cannot do anything with out him by my side. As you all have read in the past. I do have a big struggle in my life and life is hard for everyone. nevertheless, I know there is a purpose for it all. I may not see why this or that is happening. I do know it will all workout in Gods timing for his glory for those who are called for him and love him. Romans (8:28), tells me this and I do stand on this truth. Now you may be saying “Okay that is good but where is she going with all of this.”

Remember, at the beginning of this blog. I said, “this is a ramble blog.”  Even though I said that I know that I am writing today for my life has meaning and purpose.  And, you may be asking yourself the same, “where did I go wrong and do, I have a purpose for my life.”  You may not see it with all of what the world is going through.  However, I am not sure which way it is going.

Do I think doors are opening? Yes! So here is what I say to myself and God each day. Okay, I start out with. 1. I woke up today so, God has a plan for me. So, let’s go God. 😉 2. Did I sleep in a clean bed and have a roof over my head. Yes! So, lets go God. 😊 3. can I take a shower and do I have clean clothes to wear? Yes! So, let’s go God. 😊 5. Do I have food to eat. Yes! So again, let’s go God. 😊 4. Are all my bills paid for today. Yes! So, let’s go God. 😊 6. Is anyone after me for anything today? Thank God NO! so again, let’s go God. Now, with all, I must be thankful to God. Know that my struggles are still hard and real.  However, God has all my needs taken care of for today, and he tells us in his word we are not promised tomorrow. This is in Mathew (6:34). You may even want this or that as I do too. But he does not promise all your wants will be given to you. Hence, he said he will meet all your needs. He is a loving God. He wants the best for you and me. So, after I have in the morning gone through my list. I give him praises for all. That he has done for me. Also, that he blesses me. He is not only my heavenly Father, that he even through my faults. Loves me unconditionally. That he is the best resource and my source for everything.

That he gives me grace. That is a gift that we cannot earn. Grace is a gift you receive. When and only when you trust in his son. That you believe that God gave his only son for the sins of the world (our sins). Grace is not and never will be something you can buy or work for. It is again, a gift from God. John (3:16). Once you take that gift and know, no matter what life brings your way. You are his child and all the promises of the bible are yours for the taken. However, one must start to learn to change their heart to be more like his (God’s) son (Jesus Christ). All it takes at first is a mustard seed of faith. Just a little prayer to him. Even asking him to help you be able to read his word each day for because, the only way to get to know him, God, and his son Jesus Christ. Is to read his word seeking him out. Just like you have a good friend that you may get coffee with. Start talking to him and reading his word. Like you get coffee with a good friend. You can even go get your coffee by yourself. However, not really being alone take your bible with your morning coffee. Sit with him and talk to him. Let him be your best friend. He will talk to you. The only way he talks to you and me is by reading his word. You must seek him out. He will be your best friend even better than your so-called best friend now. Remember, life will not automatically change where you have a so-called better life. Nevertheless, God and his son will make sure he is with you all the rest of your days. Again, your needs will always be met. Even if you let him go for a while. Just know he does not leave us or for sake us. Then watch. Your life will change for the better. Will you still have troubles, struggles, life issues, will or could you get sick and need care for your sickness. Yes, and this is because we live in a fallen world. However, he will make sure he helps you through it. Know also do not ask for your will to be done. This may puzzle you right now. But let me break this down for you as well. I have learned in time while walking with God and Jesus Christ.  He tells us that his ways are not our ways. His thoughts are not our thoughts. Isaiah, (5:8-9) If you just trust in his word. He promises that he will make a better life for you and me. then we could ever imagine. Yes! The struggles will be hard. As you read his word. Look at all the people that believed in him. They did not have it easy either. He shows you how he worked/blessed for them. So, we are blessed to have a Bible to go to. To see all that he did before us, Hey, did you also know he cannot lie. Numbers (23:19) If he did it for Noah, Jobe, Joseph, Moses, Rahab, Ruth, Ester, Peter, Paul, The Blind Man, the man at the pool of Bethesda, and so many others. Did you even know Jesus had no sins and he was perfect? He had struggles for sure. He is the one that came to save the world. That even blows my mind. I say that because, would you give your child to save the world. I am sure Not! So, if got did it for them and gave his son for all that we did wrong. Why or how could you not think (trust, believe, have faith) he will do for us.

Why would God not do it for us. Moreover, just think about this. This is even better news. We even have a play book (The Bible) to see what he did for them. They did not have that knowledge. Yes! God did speak to some of them during that time. Still we, I feel we have the best play book.

So, at this time, I will stop my ramble. To give you this. Just know as I tell you this, I need these words as well. I will be reading my own words back to me. He is real,true,  and in control of everything. Just give him a try. I can only promise you this because, I do have faith and trust in him. He will take you places you could never imagine. I hope my words give you a little faith to go seek him out. I can only share my struggles with you so, you can see his Glory.  I really have to say I do not like my struggles nevertheless, I would not have it any other way. For I do believe I am being used by him to tell you all. No matter the issues. I see the glory in my life. I am proud to let the world know I Live for his Glory. I pray my testimony shows the work that he has done in for to help others believe in his son (Jesus Christ). Please, take that leap of faith. What do you have to lose by doing so? He will show up not a day late or a dollar shy. Know again it is in his timing.  Which I do know it is the best timing I hope this gave you something to think about today. Moreover, you love to come to love him like I do. 😊 my God be the Glory!

 

Dear heavenly Father,

I come boldly to you today. Asking that as my readers read my rambled-on blog. They see you more then they see me. that your words are real and true. That as this world is falling even more. I pray even before it is too late for them to seek you out. My readers find you. That they come to read your word. And fall in love with Jesus just like I have. That no matter their trials. You as I know you do. You will show up for them. They will read John (3:16) and pray it into their life. I pray they really get it down in their soul. Thank you for all that you are doing in my life. Even when it is hard to see what you are doing. I know you are working behind the scenes. To show your glory in my life. As well, as the readers that do believe in your son Jesus Christ.

I pray all of this in your son’s name.

In Jesus Christ Amen!

Do You Have Joy In Your Trial?

In this week’s blog. I want to focus on Jesus being ABLE To do ALL Things. This week I have to say I have been challenged even more in my faith.  My trials on earth are getting harder. I do know why this is happening. YES! I do know WHY! I may not like these trials but, it WILL not take all of my JOY from me. I have always been ABLE to praise God giving him the Glory in ALL that is going on. I am not a shy person at all.  When it comes to letting People (no matter where I am) know about my God (Jesus). I am a walking testimony. I will stop somewhere and will share about some life journey that I have faced never being alone. How Jesus has worked it out for his Glory.

Now, as you all may know. If you are or have been following my blog. You may know a part or some of my story-trials. I am losing my sight (Going blind), I have a $73,000.00 debt from my lovely job. I cannot seem to get any answers on how they will clear it up. (For it being there error). I have also quit my job because I could not take the abuse and bullying that my boss was giving me for the last 5 years. I am now getting ready to have my EEOC claim go to the next step. I am trying to be compliant to all of what they need from me. However, at every step of this process there is someone in these offices just wanting to give me there opinion. I am not asking for anyone to share in what they see. I just want to be compliant with what I need to do.  This is not as easy as one may think for, everyone seems to have some type of answer for WHAT I DID WRONG.  When all they need to do is there job. Letting the process and the correct protocol be done. As if that is not enough for one person to handle. I just got in a car accident just this week. Having to go to the hospital. This resulting in a miner concussion. You would think ok someone’s insurance will handle it. No, it has to be a bigger deal, than just someone telling their insurance company that I was in there car. Of course, that did not happen so now I need someone to help me with this battle. Well, the Devil may think he is going to keep me down. He may think I will not glorify my God in ALL of this. But I have to let you know I am on my knees more letting God know I know He is ABLE to work this out.  I will GLORIFY MY LORD ALL DAY LONG!!!

I do believe that the Lord lets the devil in to test you. However, it is so that Jesus can see how your faith is growing to bring you closer to him (Jesus). It is stated in the bible that the devil cannot do anything without the lord’s permission. So, devil lets go. My trial may be hard but, my lord and faith in him is greater. I am glad to be tested. TO show my lord I will follow him all of my days. I am glad that I am getting tested to know that I am getting closer to him. I will come out of this better off then I started with God getting the GLORY and MY TESTIMONY being larger for him.

Now with my story of how the Devil is trying to get a foot holed on my life.

Here is what I say to him.

DEVIL you will not win in this battle. I will rejoice in the lord like Habakkuk, God can test my faith like in James, and I will lean on john because Jesus took on the world. So Devil step back my trials are won by my lord and savior.  if you are in a trial I ask you to hold on to what my words are about the Lord working  it out. He is ABLE to do it for you too. Have joy while you wait on the trial to end. You will see the  other side of this and it will be better then it is. Jesus promises this. As I each week tell you my little story-blog. Please read and believe in him.  Romans 8:28 tells you that all things work out for them whom love the lord and are called according to his  plan. so , as I tell myself I will keep on this journey knowing my LORD IS BIGGER then my trial.  please do the same but , not for me but for your  faith in Jesus.  if he will do it for me. then I know he will do it for you. His words  are for you too I am no better then you.  We are all his children and he wants to be there for all of us.

 

Dear Heavenly Father,

I come to you in faith as small as a mustard seed knowing that you have ALL of my trials. I pray that my readers, if they are going through some thing as well they take on this prayer. To know that you have died on the cross for our sins and with that because we believe in you we are saved by your Grace and having eternal life with you in heaven. I give you back your words in Habakkuk, James, and john. Knowing these truths set me free from the Devils lies of the world.

Habakkuk 3 17:19Though the fig tree should not blossom, nor fruit be on the vines, the produce of the olive fail     and the fields yield no food, the flock be cut off from the fold and there be no herd in the stalls,¹⁸yet I will rejoice in the Lord; I will take joy in the God of my salvation. ¹⁹God, the Lord, is my strength; he makes my feet like the deer’s; he makes me tread on my high places. To the choirmaster: with stringed instruments. James 1:2-5 ² Count it all joy, my brothers,^[a] when you meet trials of various kinds,³for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.⁴And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.⁵If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given to him John 16:33“I have told you these things so that you can have peace in me. In this world you will have troubles. But be brave! I have defeated the world!” Thank you for all of your words that we can lean on to see that you will work it out for your glory.

In Jesus name I pray AMEN!

Did You Really Stop To Think About This Verse And Your life?

Mathew 6; 25-26 says “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes?  Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?

 Today let’s really think about this verse. First of all, we take for granted alot. Some may even count out the words in the bible but I want you to have some food for thought. I will do so in just this bible verse.

Let’s say for a minute that the bible is only a book that was written thousands of years ago and it is just words on a page.  Now I will only think or let you have a minute of your time on that false statement. One minute because I do know that the promises of the bible are true. I will not let the devil in and so, let’s go on my thoughts on why you need to believe in the bible and Jesus being your lord and savior. Imagine this. This will not be to complex so, do not worry.

Imagine a tree outside maybe a giant oak tree in full fall bloom.  The wind is blowing so ever lightly. Now up in that tree you find a nest with say maybe 2 birds. A mother bird and a baby bird.  The mother bird is just going about her business gathering up stuff for her baby bird.  She does not tell her baby bird ok now I am going to go to the store and find food for us. She does not say how I need to find a job to take care of all of our needs.  The mother bird is not telling her baby bird well this world is filled with good and evil.  They are just a part of nature. Do not think of this image as a cartoon that Disney made. Just look outside and see what nature is bringing to the forefront.   they have no bird cell phone to gossip on, no credit cards or liquid cash, grocery stores, no bird corporate jobs to go to. They cannot even speak to a human to say hey I am homeless me and my baby bird are going to go hungry can you give us a job, money, shelter   food, or can I use your phone to call a friend so we do not die or lose everything we have.  Now let say it even gets worse for the 2 birds that are in the tree that we have imagined. The wind kicks up and the clouds in the sky have gotten dark. Let’s even throw in some great thunder and lightning.  Ok we get to go inside our homes or maybe in this image we knew the weather was going to get bad so we had an umbrella. We even saw the morning news that told us there was a 65% of really bad thunder storms. Birds do not get the local TV. Wait they can’t even go to there local store and buy a 60 inch TV.  Maybe, you are getting my point. But let’s keep on this track.  Now, the birds feel the weather change and the mother bird does not say ok baby bird now start packing all of our stuff.  Need to worry they just fly off in to another location.  In this storm in that tree their home is destroyed and all of the matter that was collected is rained on, there is No bird cell phones to call daddy bird at work. They just keep on moving and GOD our heavenly father that created all (even the birds in the air) just keeps them moving with nature. WOW!  Now they did not skip a beat the birds just moved on and all was, and is still right in their world.

 Here is another kicker about these birds. NO one shares how good the Lord is to them. That Jesus is even there for them. However, He says in this verse He takes care of them. Therefore, again I say

WOW!!  Trust in his word.

So, why can we not learn from them and trust the word of God? It is funny all we have to do is look outside and see that the word of God. Is true and faithful but, for some reason we want to make it more complexed.

So again look at that bible verse. With a different set of eyes.

Mathew 6; 25-26, look at the top of this page to see it again.

He has you . No worries. Trust in his words. That old book written thousands of years ago still stands TODAY.

 

So, all I ask of you is today.  Just find the bible in your home. I am sure you may have one. Maybe it is on that nice book shelf that you bought years ago. To put all of your books, collectables on, or now just a place where all of your unused items go. So, I ask you to find it dust it off and crack it open.  Start reading it.  Or if you do not have a bible. You can even take your fancy overpriced cell phone and find a great Bible app. Pick a time each day. Spend time in the Word of god.  I promise you whatever you are going through there is a story for you to fall on. If you have never even opened this book. Do not know where to go to. I will pray with you at that minute to ask god to help you find the right promises and words to read. To watch you grow in your faith. Do not question just read and keep on reading. Yes, this book will fully fill your life. I also promise, no one can ever do this like the word of god. I can promise you that. It is the only promise that I can make to you. GOD IS REAL AND TRUE. He promises that to you.  That will start a great journey for a better life an eternal one with the lord. You cannot get one better than that. I also ask you if you do not have a good bible based church that you find one to help you spiritually grow in the lord.  Now, I also have to let you know the promises of god are all yours but, there is only one condition. This condition is not one that is hard or that I have made up. It is in the bible as well. If you are not a believer of Jesus Christ.   The promises are there for you but, you will not be able to reach them

PLEASE!!!! Do not let that stop you from reading his word for I tell you the truth. As you diligently read a little each day and ask God to help you know him. All types of doors will fly open for you. He will help you get to know his  word and his Son.   I am sure buy the time you have spent some time with him. You will want to be a believer in Jesus Christ. If you are not sure how to do this. I will help you in doing so as well. 

Ok here is how to become a follower of Jesus Christ. Let’s pray.

Read this aloud.

Dear heavenly father,

I do believe that your son Jesus Christ has died on the cross for me. He did so to take away my sins. I ask you today to bring him in to my heart and make him my lord and savior.  Thank you for putting him on the cross to take away my sins and give me grace each day through him.

In Jesus Name I pray Amen!

WELCOME!!!!! To the Family, You are now a new person in Christ.

You may ask again, what do I now do. Well, find a good local church, a bible based one. Take a few mins each day and grow with Jesus by praying to him and asking him to help you grow in him with in his word. This is one thing you will never regret doing.  You can start with in your bible reading chapters 1 and 2 of Ephesians. Read this book in the New Testament. Look as you read who you are in him, as a child of god.   As a new creation in Christ. Now, that yu are saved. The only other thing that I can share with you to do is get the book by Dr. Tony Evans. It is called Life Essentials. This book is a good one it will help you grow in your walk with the lord.  He shows you, Dr. Evans the truths of being a child of god.  He shows you how spiritual growth works. I can promise reading, studying the bible, praying to him each day, and finding a local church will help you in your walk with Jesus Christ.

Dear heavenly Father,

Thank you! For your words to us via the bible. Giving us, easy inside to how you care for us. Showing us how we can trust you and not worry about what is going on with us. By seeking you in your words. I thank you also for anyone that just prayed the prayer to believe in you. I know you will show them the way.  Thank you, for letting us have grace by your son.  Today, I pray that all that have read this blog. Your words not mine show them the way to you and the truth you have for them. How just Mathew 6:25-26 shows how simple your words are about what you will do for us. Thank you for that. Also thank you for John3:16 that tells us what salvation is. That we will have everlasting life with believing in your son.

Are You In A Storm?

Did you know as a believer you are either going in to a storm, going through a storm, or coming out of one? At this time and for a while now I have been in a big storm. I can only tell you as I go through this storm my faith is growing bigger and bigger. I am not enjoying the storm that I am going through however, I do know I cannot wait to see how the lord will bring me out of it. Also, I cannot wait to tell my testimony   on how MY GOD worked IT OUT FOR HIS GLORIY.

Believe me he is in control of it all. he will open and close the doors when he is ready.  No man can open a door that he closed or close a door he opened. Just know when you are in a storm. You need to bring all of it to him. In prayer. He knows what is really going on behind the scenes.  Just know he will not fail you. He wil not leave or for sake you. He will bring you through it better off then you were before. All you need is faith as small as a mustard seed. He will move mountains for his children. Just hold on to his word, for his words do not lie. It does not matter what the world says believe me he has you.  my storm is big but, are god is bigger. Carry your cross and be proud for he is there to fight for you. let him be the glory  in good times and in a storm.

Here is where it is in his word.

Romans 8:28, 1 Peter 5:7, Philippians 4:6-7, Matthew 17:20, Nahum 1: 7, Isaiah 25:4-5, Exodus 15:2

Now, let me tell you a little about my storm.

I moved to Texas 7 years ago.  I have a disability that is getting worse over time. Honestly if I would have known it was going to get worse I would not have come to Texas.  But, God knew. Currently in the last 4 years my vision has turned from low vision to almost totally blind.  I now can not see even 2 feet in front of me.  This has caused me to not be able to go outside as much an go for a walk, run, or even go to the gym. Light hurts my eyes. The brighter it is the harder it is to see. My sight is always changing with the weather. My sight is never the same at any point in time.   I have trouble going to the store and getting the items I need. Always needing help. My work life was getting harder to do because of my sight. It was also a toxic and abusive work place.   I could not take that type of work place anymore so, I did pray for months for god to change it for me. As that did not happen. One morning I prayed OK God, it is getting harder for me. Show me what you want me to do. Knowing I may have to quit. Low and behold, I did that day. He shut the door for that job. My doctors are even questioning because my job gave me such stress. That just maybe my sight loss could have been triggered to go faster. I now may be in a $73,000.00 debt.  I am sure that I may be even suffering with some type of depression.  I tried to get another job so, I would not have been without one. No luck there. Finding work while going blind is a challenge as well. Friends are hard to come by as well. When you cannot see people just do not want to be bothered with you. Because, I do not get out much anymore. I am gaining weight. It is hard to be going through this storm. However, god has a plan for why and he will make it right.

Now, as the last 2 weeks blog showed. We are a child of the most high god and standing in the palm of his hand.

Yes!  And because of those two truths. My GOD HAS THIS STORM!!!!

So, let’s take this to the lord and watch him work!

DEAR HEAVENLY FATHER,

Thank you for letting me neil down by your feet.  With my readers I come boldly to you knowing. This storm is a big one but you are BIGGER then all.  Please help all of us that are going through a storm. We know we are your children and are standing in your palm. Therefore protect us while you work it out for your glory to show in us.  As you know your word has power and is what is truthful so as a result of the power in your words. I say back to you Romans 8:28, and we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.1 Peter 5:7, Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you. Philippians 4:6-7, do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. Matthew 17:20, He said to them, “Because of your little faith. For truly, I say to you, if you have faith like a grain of mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move, and nothing will be impossible for you. Nahum 1:7, The Lord is good, a stronghold in the day of trouble; he knows those who take refuge in him Exodus 15:2, “The LORD is my strength and my defense; he has become my salvation. He is my God, and I will praise him, my father’s God, and I will exalt him. Isaiah 25:4-5, For You have been a strong-place for those who could not help themselves and for those in need because of much trouble. You have been a safe place from the storm and a shadow from the heat. For the breath of the one who shows no pity is like a storm against a wall. Like heat in a dry place, you quiet the noise of the strangers. Like heat by the shadow of a cloud, the song of the one who shows no pity is made quiet. YES father with all of that Please let the Heavens rain down your words in my storm of life.  Let me be alight for you to shine in no matter what the world may bring our way. YOU GOT THIS!

I love you and        thank you!

Now, in Jesus name we pray AMEN!

Feel free to comment and if you want me to pray for something you are going through. Please, let me know and I will bring it to him.

Have a blessed week! Until my next blog. Stay strong in the lord. HE HAS IT!

Love  Teresa

 

 

 

 

Do You Need Prayer?

Today, as I start my Blog. The first thing that I would like to do for all of my readers is pray over all of you. I stumbled over a great prayer that Paul prayed over the Ephesians. I found it to be very fulfilling it is one of the most beautiful descriptions of the fullness of God.

So, here is my prayer for all of you and of course myself with this journey that we will go on together

Dear heavenly Father,

Today, I come boldly to the throne. To pray Ephesians3:14-21 over all that is reading this. As paul did for the Ephesians. I pray that my words back to you, are used to show how much YOU Not me, are real and true I pray as we go on this journey together you use me as a vessel to show them how a mustard seed of faith goes along way. That all things will workout together  for your Glory and that you are really in control of it all.

SO here it is:

¹⁴ For this reason I kneel before the Father, ¹⁵ from whom every family^[a] in heaven and on earth derives its name. ¹⁶ I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, ¹⁷ so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, ¹⁸ may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, ¹⁹ and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.²⁰ Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, ²¹ to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen

Now and forever in Jesus name AMEN
