Friday Focus.....

.......on a few things in our yard!!!

Matthew 6:28-29
And why worry about your clothing? 
Look at the lilies of the field and how they grow. 
They don’t work or make their clothing,  
yet Solomon in all his glory was not dressed as beautifully as they are.

I'm lovin' this weather and just plain lovin' my life!

God is so good!

Hope y'all have a great weekend!!!

Wait.....

The boys ran on ahead, disappearing around the corner of the house out of sight.  

Ruby Kate was trying her best to catch up with them,

running as fast as her little brown legs would carry her!

Nannie, of course was bringing up the rear....

her legs wouldn't go nearly as fast, 

considering their age and her bum knee.

I hollered at RK to wait on Nannie.

She stopped dead in her tracks.....

turned around and smiled at me.....

and didn't take another step until I caught up with her.

She reached up and took my hand in hers and we walked that way until we caught up with the boys.

What a sweet example of our precious Jesus!!!

Often the worries and cares and troubles of this life cause me to lag behind.

I loose my focus and take my eyes off of HIM.

But.....He's always right there waiting on me....

with His outstretched hand....

and a smile on His face.

Isaiah 30:18
So the Lord must wait for you to come to him

    so he can show you his love and compassion.
For the Lord is a faithful God.
    Blessed are those who wait for his help.

Wednesday's Word - Enough

Matthew 6:34

 So don’t worry about tomorrow, 

for tomorrow will bring its own worries. 

Today’s trouble is enough for today.

Proverbs 30:7-8
O God, I beg two favors from you;
    let me have them before I die.
  First, help me never to tell a lie.
    Second, give me neither poverty nor riches!
    Give me just enough to satisfy my needs.

Have a terrific Tuesday

Lamentations 3:22-24

The faithful love of the Lord never ends! 
    His mercies never cease.
 Great is His faithfulness;
    His mercies begin afresh each morning.
  I say to myself, 

“The Lord is my inheritance;
    therefore, I will hope in Him!”

Happy Mother's Day!

I Corinthians 13:4-7

Love is patient and kind. 

Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. 

It does not demand its own way. 

It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. 

 It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out.

 Love never gives up,

 never loses faith, 

is always hopeful, 

and endures through every circumstance.

Ain't God good?

Oh, yes HE is!!!

If you read my post yesterday, "Thankful Thursday", 

I told y'all about leaving a stressful situation and getting in the car and laughing and singing....

okay, my version of singing!!! 

Anyway, I didn't read my God Calling (written long before Jesus Calling) for yesterday until just a bit ago.

Here are some excerpts from the devotional for May 9.....

"You must not expect to live where others are in unbroken accord with you.  

It is your task to maintain your own heart peace in adverse circumstances.

 Harmony is always yours when you strain your ear to catch Heaven's music.

 Doubt always your power or wisdom to put things right, 

ask Me to right all as you leave it to Me and go on your way loving and LAUGHING.  

I am wisdom. 

Only My wisdom can rightly decide anything - settle any problem.  

So rely on Me.  

All is well".

HE NEVER ceases to amaze me.

Our God is AWESOME!!!

Job 8:21

He will once again fill your mouth with laughter
    and your lips with shouts of joy.

Thankful Thursday!!!

This is one of those posts that I'm writing for future reference.

This past Monday (5-6-13) I had just been in a situation that in the past would have stressed me out to the max.  
When I got in the car to drive home, 
I just started laughing out loud and I know that was the Holy Spirit 
'cause it sure wasn't a normal reaction for Deb!!!  

But, then I started singing.....this song....

(don't forget to turn my PlayList off above before listening/viewing)

Tuesday morning (5-7-13) I tried to call my bestie, Ms. Dawn, 
but couldn't get her on her cell phone.  
So....I did something that I normally don't do.
I called her at work.

She had something she wanted to share with me, 
but had been uncertain as to whether she should tell me, or not.
She felt that since I called her out of the blue, 
that was God's prompting her to tell me.

I shared my story with her about singing the song,
and even sang a bit to her at the risk of hurting her ears!!!
She told me that the day before....
Monday....
she had gotten a song on her mind that she didn't want to sing 
and had asked God to give her a different song.

Guess what song He gave her to sing!!!

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus

There’s just something about that Name.

Master, Savior, Jesus

Like the fragrance after the rain.

Jesus, Jesus, Jesus

Let all heaven and earth proclaim.

Kings and kingdoms will all pass away.

But, there’s something about that Name!

Ain't God good?

Oh, yes He is!!!

Psalm 40:3

He has given me a new song to sing,
    a hymn of praise to our God.
Many will see what he has done and be amazed.
    They will put their trust in the Lord!
