TIME TO REST

Besides coming up with all kinds of recipes, doing some light housekeeping, unpacking my backpacks to repack them, writing a letter every now and then, trying to help my mom find a place closer to Pensacola, I have been resting. I have met up with a friend or two every now and then, and spoken with one or two over the phone. Committing everything to prayer and beginning to see The Body function as it should.

My truck is being worked on some more in hopes of possibly heading north and west for a few days. Today was my nephew's bday ELIJAH DAVID. Two year old treasure of love. Thank you God for allowing me to be a part of their little lives.

The other night I sang with my friend Andrea at the Back Door (Beacon of Life Ministry) in Foley... I really really like those people. Andrea has been my friend for many years. I think we both started writing songs and poetry right around the same time many years ago. We both long for the Lord to do all that He wants to do in us and through us. It is a lot of fun to watch what happens when two or more of us show up in one place (agreeing) He is in our midst. Healing comes. His Word accomplishes all that it was sent forth to do.

I am excited for the days to come, and I am full of tears at the same time. Overwhelmed by the Lord's perfect love to come in and save the day EVERYDAY. Earnestly desiring to see others turn their eyes to Jesus so that everything else will grow strangely dim in the light of His glory and grace. How I long for the righteous to realize that HE HEARS THEIR CRIES and WILL DELIVER THEM OUT OF ALL THEIR TROUBLES. If they will only look to HIM their faces will be radiant and nevered covered with shame.

PRINCESS PARTY











Tuesday returned from PRINCESS PARTY celebrating my nieces birthday. All my nephews and nieces were there, my mom, and four out of five of my siblings. The lastest of what's been on my mind (besides Georgia) is FEAR NO EVIL (Psalm 23:4).

KEEP WATCHING KEEP PRAYING





Just today had a friend call me with some big "NEWS" that was absolutely a direct answer to prayer. Thank You Lord...thank you so much. Also, it started snowing tonight here in Savannah, Georgia. My little niece who is about to celebrate her 4th birthday, she asked and received. She said outloud, "THANK YOU GOD!! Thank you for the snow! I'm really excited about it!" (With huge smiles on her precious face)

TAKING TIME AWAY

Awfully nice to have these pages to write what's going on in my life and inform those who care to know what is on my mind. So it's about that time. Time to take some time away and re-evaluate what's going on inside. It's time to listen carefully and make some more decisions.

For a time (not certain exactly how long yet) I will be taking a break from technology. I will be receiving mail via P.O. Box 16644 Pensacola, FL 32507. I cannot promise an immediate response, but I do promise to pray for you, and to write back when I can.

Meanwhile, pray for me. Pray for me to have a greater understanding of the knowledge of God. I pray for all of us that we will not allow ourselves to remain distracted, but that we will seek first His Kingdom and righteousness.

Find someone today and be their friend. Listen and love them. Befriend those people you claim to be friends with. A true friend is a gift from God. So be one.

INVISIONING

Children of God crying out to a city, praying, singing, searching for the lost. While in conversations, listening to their story, painting a picture on a piece of wood, with a verse they can take with them, reminding them never to forget what is temporary and what is eternal.

What if we lived to relieve peoples burdens along the way, searching for ways to lighten their load, and hopefully they will be so encouraged by the love that so deeply impacts them...they could not help but do the same for others.

As long as I have breath in me - I will be telling anyone I can of my Father's faithfulness to answer prayer, and lift up the broken hearted. He frequently displays His love and power in ways that heals the hurting, and defies the impossible with the simplest of understanding. Keep boggling our minds Lord. Your love is nothing we can explain, even though we keep trying to...

THE REFUGE






Spent a few days in Indiana. Met up with some precious friends I had not seen in quite a while. Threw some snowballs at a few people. Painted some walls and a window on the corner of second and main street (downtown evansville). Saw immediate answers to my prayers. Met a new friend in Memphis. Continually rejoicing in the Lord for THE REFUGE He is to me and all those who call on Him in truth.
