Grateful!

 I am so grateful.  I could complain in the small things but overall, when I think about how God sent a Messenger, a Comforter, a Way Maker all I can say is Hallelujah!!!  This weekend I learned, and it confirmed things about my family and myself.  How many know you can't poke at your family until you fully poke at yourself? (Know yourself- Be honest with yourself).  It led me to one conclusion.  I love Jesus.  I will not be silent in my prayer, in my singing, in my praise, in my declaration of passing His Word:  Why?  It is in my name!  I am the daughter of the Most High!

Romans 6:22

Come on, sometimes you have to encourage yourself when you can't reach your Bible, when your friend in Christ does not pick up, and/or motivation sermon/apps/channels are temporary unavailable or out of your reach.  You have to have the ability to speak life over your situation.  

Thank you Jesus!  This is a GRATEFUL praise!

Leviticus 19:2

The messenger on December 5, 2002 spoke on "The Call of Holy Living".  Believers, we have to act on our belief.  I know God has done something for you and you said, "Thank you Jesus".  So, why are we still not grateful?  Why do we grumble? My thought is because we have one foot in the world and we have not set apart to walk in purpose as a priority.  Every time a trail comes up we just don't complain but we allow it to change our mood which changes our behavior.  We treat the trial like death is at the door and there is no anecdote for the situation.  BUT.... if you tried Jesus and establish a intimate relationship you would be Grateful!

I was on a plane earlier this morning and for 30 minutes the plan kept going up and down.  I just kept saying JESUS (something in His Name).  Then on my way back home from the airport I got a flat tire.  Praise God my tire was low and started making that wobbly sound when I reached the city I live in (the airport is an hour away with toll).  I made it home.  I made it back to my family.  Yes, I have to take care of the misfortunate situation, but I am grateful because God is shifting where when I take care of my flat tire tomorrow bounty of Blessings will fall.  I will speak life over my situation!  I will not complain! My God is Awesome!  He covers us in our trials and our uncomfortable situations.  I am GRATEFUL!

Always with Love,
