Isaiah 45:21
“Declare what is to be, present it – let them take council together. Who foretold this long ago, who declared it from the distant past? Was it not I, the Lord? And there is no God apart from me, a righteous God and a Saviour; there is none but me.”
My daughter come, you are Mine -I love you.
Thank-you Lord. I’m so glad to know that my love for you has grown, and it’s grown because of this long journey we’ve been on. I’m so thankful for every step we’ve taken together..
Me too. My daughter, all is well with you (I’m in right standing with him.). Caroline, I have a word for you today.
Father, I really would love to know!
Come, you are mine. Courage my daughter, courage. Take heart, I have overcome the world.
Thank-you Dad. I can feel your presence in my heart.
Reflection:
Good morning! Last night I woke up after 2:00 and I couldn’t fall back asleep for the rest of the night (I took an hour nap this afternoon). Then I got up just after 4:00 to get ready to go to the gym and did an awesome workout! This is the third week of the Crossfit Open, so every Friday we’ve done the workout they did, but most of us do an easier version of it. So this morning we did 5 “wall walks,” (just went up a little -I used to be able to do them better), then 50 single unders, then 12 power snatches (45lbs); then 20 push-ups, 50 single unders, 9 power snatches (65 lbs) then 20 push-ups, 50 single unders, 6 power snatches (65lbs). I don’t know how I could have stopped doing crossfit; I enjoy it so much! But whenever I do a really hard workout, about 20 min afterward I always see prisms, different colors that form a C in my eyes that get bigger so that it comes right in front of my vision. But when this happens I’m actually not worried because then I just lay down and rest and then it goes away, so this morning I slept for about twenty min before helping my kids get their lunches ready and the prisms were gone when I woke up. This morning I made a same-day appointment; I’ve had a sore in my nose that I’ve had for a few years that’s healed for the most part but then it becomes sore again. A few weeks ago it began to bleed but then it healed, so I was hoping it would be okay. Then in the last few days I’ve noticed an odor coming from the sore, and I’m worried about it. I can’t smell it right now; it’s not a constant smell, and I have a cream that’s a bit stronger than polysporin that I use. The doctor looked at it and told me it looked like a small white pimple, so today she put me on a 3-6 month waiting list to see a specialist. And I’m so happy to say that my ears are back to normal! Sharp sounds don’t bother me and I’m not hearing an echo in large rooms like I used to, so I’m so thankful to God for my healing! The doctor looked at them too and she didn’t see anything out of the norm. If you would remember to pray for my nose, I’d be so grateful.. I feel so silly talking about my nose.. I told the doctor that I was sorry that she had to look inside my nose -things like this are so humbling, but it’s the best thing when we’re humble. Tomorrow I’ll be baking a Cinnamon Apple Pecan pie for our church auction. I’ve never made this pie before but I know it’ll turn out great!! Many blessings to you!!
