Playing Catch Up...

My LORD,

#Sunday - GOD YOU REIGN! YOU DIED and YOU ROSE Again! YOU Are The Lord of Lords and the King of Kings!  I LOVE YOU and I THANK YOU for YOUR Sacrifice!  FOR taking on the sins of the world and for loving us first.  YOU took that lonely walk and that horrific abuse and you were forsaken by Your Father all because you loved us first.  People think that nails held you up on that cross but it was all for love!  We cannot fathom that and we still walk in this flesh refusing to believe it most times, but My Lord, I am a BELIEVER!  Pastor Wagner said it so perfectly, "YOU TRANSFORMED the lives of the Disciples and YOU have surely #transformed mine!" That is how I know that my Redeemer Lives!  My life is not my own.  I made a complete mess of it for 40+ years and then on that quiet sunny day, May 4th 2008, you came into my heart and changed me.  Not MAN and certainly nothing I did on my own.  It was ALL YOU!  And again, I say, "Thank You!"

Church was #awesome!  The Choir *ROCKED* the house!  I was so filled with your Spirit; crying and praising your name!  I wanted to shout and move about so badly but I was trying to be #polite to the members behind me and around me.  Father, something comes over me when I'm in worship.  I can't keep still and my heart always gets so stirred up!  I know that I am SAVED, I can feel it deep down in my soul.  It is not me who behaves in this way when I'm in Your Sanctuary!  It is this Spirit that you've given me!!!!

#Saturday - Awesome morning with my #juice buddy, Missy!  We started at 0630.  We headed to the 5K and got our free T-shirts!  Yay! They were in my favorite color!  We had so much fun.  Yes we walked most of it, but the fellowship and the meaning behind it all was truly #priceless!


WE LOVE YOU and we give you ALL the PRAISE!!!!! I have lost a total of 26 lbs and after 50 days of juicing, we went back to her house to have our #celebration meal!  Yummy and oh so delightful!  Fresh fruit and more fresh fruit!

Thank you My Lord for providing for us for 50 days.  It was costly, but the lesson was priceless!  You have shown me that I can be disciplined and I am forever grateful for that truth!  It's in your word and it's now embedded in my heart!

#Friday - Errands, packing, chores, excitement:  Yes...I'm moving soon, and I'm close to finishing the juice fast!  You are a ROCK Star in my book Jesus!  ;-)

#Thursday - I had a wonderful dinner with Linda Rae.  It was so very delightful.  We had an awesome time in fellowship and we have so very much in common.  I was so grateful to her for making us dinner.  We had a juice dessert and we drank a healthy green glass of veggies for dinner!  And as amazing as that was to sit there and have that kind of meal with her, the place were we sat topped it all.  My Lord, YOU REIGN!  Not only did you bless her in a ginormous way, you gave her her heart's desire!  She is a #beach lover too, and you gifted her with such a beautiful *tiny jewel* which reaffirms to me how you so long to bless us when we honor and submit to you!  I could not stop smiling, rejoicing and praising you with each and every square foot that you gave her.  It was so breathtaking and so freaking gorgeous! 

And yes, My Lord, I am asking you for something similar.  Yes, I am renting a condo and the beach and yes, I'm soon moving to a little beach cottage.


And Father, yes; I'm praying for a gift like hers.  Not exactly-but my heart's desire is to stay on the water or near it until you call me home. #Please, please, please!  I know how much you love me and I know how much it pleases you to see me smile!  Father, you know that I have many prayer request for my family and my friendships, but My Lord, aside from my #desire to serve you and your grace in sustaining my health, this is my most heartfelt prayer.  In Jesus' precious and perfect name. Amen!

Prayer request:  Kiyah, Shawn, Pochie, Thea, Robin, Melanie and Mark, Ruth, Jackie #2, Jazmine & Tyonna, T., JT., Sean, Angie, Peachie, Donnell, Kara, Cindy, Mr. McDowell, Julie, Nancy, and many, many others.  Father, please hear my prayers and answer them according to your will and your timing!

Eternally yours
