Hi y'all,
I just wanted to stop in and touch base a little since I haven't blogged in the last couple of weeks. School is a priority right now and there's little time for thinking outside of the box.
On a happy note, I'm healthy and happy and the Lord continues to reveal His grace and mercies in a myriad of ways daily. The fact that my old car starts and has gotten me to every class and every important appointment is a miracle of His hand. The fact that I am still mobile after such a harsh physical punishment to my body over the years is a miracle. The fact that the friends I have are so awesome (in real life and the blogosphere) is a miracle.
My children are healthy and happy. My grandson is healthy and already walking before his first birthday. Those little cautious steps where he just stands there and balances while carefully weighing his options before deciding to take the step is one of the most beautiful and adorable things I've ever seen. He's the light of my life these days.
One of the most wonderful experiences I've had in the last few weeks is the revelation that God loves me for being true to myself and genuine before His beloved face. He has no doubt that I am as transparent as can be. How do I know I am? Because the things I tell Him, no man would except me for. I can tell Him the things that shame me the most. The things I wish I could hide from even myself. He loves that about me and I can sense His good pleasure in me because instead of feeling lowly and ashamed for my confessions, I feel free and elated. It's as if He just pats me on the back and says, "there there daughter, I love you anyway...I understand and we'll sort this out together." You know the thing I'm talking about, right?...that agape love that leaves you knowing you're loved unconditionally, as well as being loved in a way that no human being can ever love you.
Hence, and heretofore, I declare peace and joy is here with me in the form of the Lord in Spirit and He sends great love to you all! See you soon!

That's right Kelline,
ReplyDeleteHe is a beautiful God who loves all the world and wants us all to become like Him through being born again of His Holy Spirit and having our minds renewed in Jesus. He is so longsuffering and patient with us and there is not a person on earth that can love and forgive in the way He does with a carnal mind, we have to have the mind of Christ to be able to do that. Thank God He understands we are flesh and forgives us when we make mistakes.
I realize people live their entire lives without Him and manage, but I guarantee they'd manage better and in a more complete way with Him and His love.
DeleteOh Kelline good to hear from ya on the blogosphere, :) this post is very uplifting. God loves us even with our ugly sides, ugly parts that no one else could accept of us. This post reminds me of something I saw on facebook, "I may not be perfect, but Jesus thought I was to die for." We are so loved! So very blessed and lucky.
ReplyDeleteAMEN!!! Blessed and lucky sum it up nicely. I stole away from studies to post this. I find myself glazing over after so many hours of looking at quadratic equations, radical expressions, and root terms. Ugh. Thank God though that I have that capacity to learn. Hugs sis!
DeleteKelline I know that agape love your talking about. It's so great that we have a friend in God, that He loves and cares for us, that we can bare our souls before Him and He welcomes us with open arms. He doesn't make us feel bad or uncomfortable and we know He's listening, we can tell Him ANYTHING and He is there. I am so glad He gave us a way to get to know all of the wonderful things about Him, makes us love Him more and more. He is perfect and just awesome!! It's great when we can share how we feel about God with one another. I just love it! Makes me smile writing about Him.
ReplyDeleteI know...I smile when I write about Him too and I am completely persuaded that He has put us all together, us Christian sisters, for a reason. There have been times I felt comforted just knowing that I have sisters around the world in Christ.
