After another restless night, I woke up this morning and prayed that God would birth in me an expectancy, a sense of anticipation for this day...and excitement at what He will do in my life today, either to me or through me...His will, not mine!
I went for my walk and noticed how beautiful the sky looked this morning. There was a pink glow over the eastern sky...it was so pretty! Suddenly the words, "His mercies are new every morning" came to mind...
I realised that each new day that we are given is one where we can sit bemoaning our losses, or count our blessings. Obviously there are days when we struggle, but even within the struggle we can seek out blessings....coz they are there!
I prayed for God's will in my life today...that I can use this day to bring glory to Him. This is my challenge today...to look outside of my circumstances and see the beauty of this perfect day...and to see it from His perspective, rather than mine.
I prayed for each of you as well. So many of you are hurting, carrying burdens that you are desperate to unload. Some are weary, needing God's strength to make it through another day. Some are grieving things lost, some dealing with turmoil or sickness. Some of you are just plain lonely, aching for a human touch.......I pray for you all, that today God will bring something special into your life, a blessing from heaven to you.
Father, I lift these precious children of Yours, up to You. I pray a blessing on their lives. I pray You bring strength to the weary, peace to the troubled hearts, healing to those who are sick and comfort to those grieving and lonely. I pray a little touch of heaven in their lives. Amen

. Saying I am sorry is WORTHLESS without real repentance.
True or FALSE ?
Without a personal and intimate relationship with God, how can you ever realize the true identity and person of God?
Continue to be faithful, deliverance is near, obedience must be seen, be an unconditional blessing as He continues to bless you.
This time is short, serve Him well, serving all.
Without exception.
