I never get tired of people hearing God and telling me what He has to say for me. Last week was Isaiah 54, which really spoke to my heart... this week God sent a wonderful woman of Him to tell me that He WILL give me the desires of my heart, it WILL be done, and not to worry about it.
My God is MIGHTY, POWERFUL, LOVING, AMAZING, EXTRAORDINARY!!!

Promises and Blessings
Today we had an amazing service at church. Ken came down to the alter so I could pray healing over him. Before hand I was praying (and crying) and asking God, "whatever I need to do for his (ken) healing, I will, I feel like I'm begging, the same words over and over, and quite frankly, I'm tired of begging."
A good friend/woman of God came to me and said that God laid Isaiah 54 on her heart and that it was for us (Ken and I).
The part of Isaiah 54 that REALLY touched me reads:
Sing, O childless woman, you who have never given birth!
Break into loud and joyful song, O Jerusalem, you who have never been in labor.
For the desolate woman now has more children than the woman who lives with her husband, says the Lord.
Enlarge your house; build an addition.
Spread out your home, and spare no expense!
For you will soon be bursting at the seams
Your descendants will occupy other nations and resettle the ruined cities.
... For a brief moment I abandoned you, but with great compassion, I will take you back.
In a burst of anger I turned my face away for a little while.
But with everlasting love I will have compassion on you," says the Lord, your Redeemer.
"Just as I swore in the time of Noah that I would never again let a flood cover the earth,
So now I swear that I will never again be angry and punish you.
For the mountains may move and the hills disappear,
but even then my faithful love for you will remain.
My covenant of blessing will never be broken," says the Lord, who has mercy on you.
YES GOD!!!!!

simple ponderings
Sometimes I wonder... "how did God decide who I was going to be?"
Couldn't I have just as simply been a fish to be caught on a hook, or a dog to be loved (or not) by an owner?
Today we went to the creek, and Ken went fishing. As he is catching some brim, he would bring them to me and I would put them on a stringer. I was laying out in the sun relaxing and just thinking, couldn't I have just as easily been a fish? I guess the the great scheme of things the answer is simple, no I couldn't have "been a fish".
Even though I can't see it, God has a set plan for my life. Sometimes it aggravates the MESS out of me that I don't know what it is, or that it is not going along as I planned. But He is slowly unveiling His plan for me, even though I cannot always see it.
