Ain't God good? Oh, yes HE is!!!
Yeah....me, too!
Remember I told y'all that last Saturday was my birthday?!?!
Well....did I tell you how we celebrated?!?!?!
Pappy and I participated with our SONday school class in a day of prayer....
....and fasting!!!
....and fasting!!!
It was the most AWESOME day I think I've ever spent.
At four in the afternoon, we met at the home of our teacher and had another two hours of praying and sharing and singing and just plain ole' worshiping HIM!!! During our prayer time and reading the Bible, I knew in my heart that God was speaking to me about a certain situation. I had felt that little "tug" earlier in the week and shared with a couple of people....who disagreed with a decision I was about to make. On Saturday morning, I sent a text message to my best friend and told her I needed prayer....explaining what I felt the Holy Spirit prompting me to do. She didn't try to "talk me out of it"....
....she was very supportive....
....told me she would pray for me....
....she was very supportive....
....told me she would pray for me....
....and her advice was.....
..... "follow your heart which is the Holy Spirit speaking".
Lesson learned....
....trust HIM and don't go seeking advise from others about "what would you do"....or "what do you think". There's nothing wrong with that....but realize that HE does give me discernment and wisdom....'cause, after all....I prayed for those things!!!
;-)
Thanks be to our precious Lord and Savior for that "still small voice"....
....and for confirmations from best friends!!!
And....for the prayers of fellow believers to help us face challenges!!!
I ♥ this verse of scripture....
Joshua 1:9
This is my command—be strong and courageous!
Do not be afraid or discouraged.
For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.
Hope your Thursday is full of sweet blessings!!!

Special Prayer Request!
I'm calling on all my precious Prayer Warriors to offer up prayer
for our nephew, Rob. He has heart problems and I just learned that he is in the hospital.
I don't have any other details.

Take a deep breath!!!
I have a new little thing I do whenever I'm feeling stressed, or a bit panicky....
....or, just when I want to feel a bit closer to our Lord!!!
Take a deep breath....and as you breathe in....think to yourself,
"Breathe in Jesus"....
....and as you exhale....
...."breathe out Deb"!!
Okay, you need to insert your own name here, instead of Deb....
....unless we share the same name!!!
;-)
As I woke up one morning, I took a deep breath and couldn't help but smile, as I pictured Jesus filling up every fiber of my being....
....from the top of my head down to my toes....out to my fingertips!!!
If HE is in me....then, He's gonna direct my thoughts (mind)...what I look at (eyes)....what I listen to (ears)....and, what I say (mouth). He will be there to help my hands to help others....to direct my steps!!!
I shared this with our daughter who used it on SONday morning before she and our son-in-law spoke to their church....a congregation of close to 500 people!!! Then, on SONday night, a friend of hers used it again as she stood before a group of people to speak.
So....see....it works!!!
Try it yourself....see if you can't tell a difference!!!
And....let me know!!!

"Truth"ful Tuesday!!!
I am loving coming across things with my word "truth"....
....or, discovering a nugget of "truth"!!!
Here are a few I came across this past week....
Ask God for His transforming renewal.
It may not be without some upheaval in your life, but the renewal that comes from the Lord is truly life changing. Being transformed is a process, but with God's help, we can become more like Jesus.
Jeremiah 18:6
Just like clay in the potter's hands,
so are you in My hand!!!
God sees the future with the same fixed certainty that we see the past.
Every evil you experience is achieving an eternal glory for you that will be more valuable than the pain you're experiencing. Whatever pain you had to walk thru on this side of heaven will be worth it. Even though you can't see that....trust His heart!!!
There's advantage in our weakness.
There is blessing in our pain;
It is when we're feeling helpless
That God's grace and strength sustain.
~~~Fitzhugh~~~
I love this about learning to trust my instincts....
....listening to that "still small voice".....
By spending time with the Lord on a daily basis, you will begin to think like Him,
behave like Him, and react like Him!!!
We have in our generation people who question if the Bible is the word of God.
From beginning to end, the Bible is God's word, inspired by the Holy Spirit.
When I turn to the Bible, I know that I am reading TRUTH....
....and I turn to it every day!!!
~~~Billy Graham~~~
We read the Bible to know the TRUTH.
We want to think clearly about what God says is TRUE and valuable.
I'm so glad that I started taking notes about "truth".
I can't help but wonder....what word will God lead me to in 2013?!?!?
Hope each of you are keeping your word in mind
as you go thru your day!!!

With flying colors!!!
I recently came across this little "sign".....
You know how I love "acrostics"....well, I've decided that I like anything that has to do with words....especially words of "TRUTH"!!! I have a board on 
that is simply titled "Words". It's a group of little quotes....signs....that speak to my heart!!!
that is simply titled "Words". It's a group of little quotes....signs....that speak to my heart!!!
I recently did a post over at A Year in Pictures of signs at Hobby Lobby!!!
Anyway....back to the little sign above!!!
I commented to a lady that the last year has been one big test....
....and I HOPEd I had passed....but I knew I didn't "pass with flying colors"!!!
But, then that got me to thinking (uh-oh...this could be dangerous!!! ;-)
Isn't our entire life one big test?
Don't you agree that all the things we go thru serve to build our faith and make us stronger? Often things that have happened to me....even years ago....even as a teenager....come into play when I'm trying to help somebody else with a situation they are in!!! Those things do help make us stronger....but not in our own abilities....not at all....but making us realize that we are absolutely NOTHING....without HIM!!!
He is AWESOME....even when I'm going thru the tests and trials....my HOPE is still in HIM.
He knows best....and He is allowing whatever is happening to me....for my benefit....
but ultimately....to bring HIM the glory!!!
but ultimately....to bring HIM the glory!!!
If you get a chance....read the entire chapter of James 1.
James 1:2 and 12
Dear brothers and sisters, when troubles come your way, consider it an opportunity for great joy. God blesses those who patiently endure testing and temptation. Afterward they will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.
Happy Monday, Sweet Reader
In HIS Most Precious Love....and with mine!!!
