Hello Hello:
I know the thoughts and the plans the Lord has towards me; they are thoughts of good and not of evil - to give me a hope, a future, an expected end. The Living Water a few days ago talked about our faith being tested. It listed the scripture James 1:3 which states 'When your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. It also listed Romans 5:3 states 'We know that the {trials} are good for us, they help us learn to endure. Our faith is tested on a daily basis. It's tested on our jobs, in our marriages/relationships, in our relationships with our children, in what we believe who we are, what we can do, and what we can have in Christ Jesus on this earth.
James talks about trials being good for us, and they are. I can say that without a funny look on my face. Trials help us to grow; and anything and everything that we go through, we should learn something - of ourselves and of what we can do. James 1:2 says that we should count it all joy when we fall into various trials. And you know what, I have learn to turn to God fo my strength when I see trouble on the horizon. I now look for what the Lord is trying to show me. I've learned to praise God even in the mist of my storm(s), and I praise Him often. When we go through trials, we should approach it with the right attitude and ask God for wisdom. If you lack wisdom, you should ask of God who gives to all men liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. When you are in your trial, whether someone has said something to you or has done something to you or if a bad situtation arises, turn to God. He will help you endure; He will help you to approach the situation with the right attitude. he will help you to be able to count it all joy when he trial comes. God's thoughts towards you are good - no matter what others think. God wants you to succeed. Turn to God, and He will help you run the race that is before. Every service we sing a song that says 'We on this crazy road called life......We are running the ultimate race right now. No turning back, we're gonna live it loud - gonna live out our destiny and Jesus, I look to you and run our ultimate race.' Look to Him; In Him lies your victory!

A Little Word Everyday!
Hello Again!
I just want to encourage you to read the Word of God everyday. Even if it's just a little bit. I know that we all are very busy with work, spouse, children, and different activities, but it is very important for us all to read the Word of God everyday. Even if you have those inspirational calendars with a scripture on it or maybe you receive inspirational email with a scripture. It is important. The Word of God is where we draw our strength from. It is what gives us hope. It like spinach to Popeye. It gives us strength to fight against the enemy. The devil wants you to fail; he wants you to bound down with the cares of this world. God has given us everything we will need in His Word to live a healthy, prosperous and happy life here on this earth.
I receive the Living Water everyday. It's gives you scripture(s), and inspiration to uplift you and build you up in your most holy faith in God. It only takes a few minute to read, and I can read it when ever I want to or have the opportunity. The Word of God protects you in all your ways. There is a hedge of protection about you. Sometimes I open up the Living Water email, and it is exactly what I need to remind me of what my God can do. There is so much going on in our lives and all around us. It is easy to get your mind off the things of God. When you haven't had your daily dose of God, you become weak and an easy target for the enemy. Just think if you went on for days, months (God forbid years) without reading His Word. Do you know how vunerable that makes you? You would be easy pickings for the enemy; it would be easy to fall into temptations. It would be hard for you to resist the devil and have him flee from you. It would be hard for you to hear the voice of the Father when He says "Don't do that!" or "Don't go there!". The Word of God gives us wisdom in our everyday lives. So it is important to read the Word of God everyday, even if it's just a little bit.
There's still time for you to put your armor on today!

I love you and so does God!

God is Good All the Time
Hello:
Jesus is still on the throne, and is seated at the right hand of the Father ever making intercession for you and for me. Not only is He seated at the right hand of the Father, but we are seated in Him far above the forces of the enemy. We WIN! We are VICTORIOUS in every area of our lives. I truly believe that! I am more than a conqueror in HIM through Christ Jesus.
I just want to update all of you about the situation concerning my car. Well as I've told you before - the Word of God will work for you if you work the Word. We have got to speak the Word of God concerning our situations. There is something in the Word of God concerning every situation we could ever face. AnyWho, God showed up and He showed out on my behalf. Now, some might say 'Oh, that was just luck' or 'That could have happend for anybody'. What that person doesn't know is that I specifically asked God to do what He did. I prayed first for a peaceful process and that He would turn this, which the enemy tried to use for harm, to turn it around for my good. See, the enemy thought that he had me; he thought he finally found something that would make that "old girl" come out again. But I am a new creation in Christ Jesus. I have been transformed by the the renewing of mind with God's Word. Old things have past away behold ALL things are new with me. That girl that I use to be no longer resides here. I knew it would depend upon my attitude during this process that would determine my success or failure; my defeat or my victory. Since I am the righteousness in God through Christ Jesus, there is no way possible that I could lose. My God that I serve is always for me; therefore, no one and nothing can successfully be against me. Not only did I get a bigger, newer vehicle, but it also had lower mileage than the G6. It's also easier to get Angelina in and out of. I had a 2006 Pontiac G6 GT, and now I have a 2007 Chevy Trailblazer. Not only that, but the interest rate was way better than I expected. Never in a million years would I have thought that I would qualify for this good of a rate. But you know what, no I couldn't get that kind of a rate, but God can. I give Him all of the honor and all of the glory. He alone is worthy of my praise, and I will praise Him until there is no breath left in this body - even when that happens - I will continuously praising Him in heaven.
Remember, God is for you. If you are a child of the Most High God, then He is for you, and when He's for you no one and nothing can successfully be against you. It's all in what you say concerning your situation and what you believe God can do for you. He is still in the business of doing miracles. Only He can do the IMPOSSIBLE.
