“The Lord is my Shepherd, I will not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for His name’s sake.” Psalm 23:1-3
Conversation
I love You Papa. I praise and worship You. Draw me closer to You.
Come My darling, you are Mine.
Papa, my heart is in agreement with You and with Your purpose for my life. I don’t know exactly what that will be, but I believe that my heart is in alignment with Yours because I’m willing to follow You wherever You lead.
You are Mine declares the Lord.
Reflection
Hello and welcome to my journal. Life in the valley can be very difficult, but we need to remember that God is always faithful. Right now I’m in a valley, being tested and pruned so that in God’s time I’ll be ready to walk out of this valley, Victorious! What I’ve been doing as I’m waiting is spending time with God and keeping on doing what He’s already asked me to do. I’m clinging onto hope because God is my firm foundation. God is faithful and I know that He will never let me down, and I’m going to stay faithful to Him. He has shown me His faithfulness all the time and I know His love through that. God gives me dreams and wakes me up at certain times. As you read my journal my hope is that even though I’m in a valley in my life, I hope you will be inspired to always keep your heart open to God no matter what’s going on in your life, because God is a God of Love and He always has a Good plan for our life. He knows how to lead us; we just need to trust Him and follow Him! Very often God draws my heart to Him through love songs and intimacy with Him in dreams, because as part of the bride of Christ, Jesus is my husband. My love for God/Jesus keeps on growing as I continue to pursue Him. During the night God wakes me up at certain times with either a word from Him and/or a dream. So here’s my journal entry for today..
4:05 The truth is I am my Fathers child. I make Him proud and I make Him smile. I was made in the image of a perfect King. He looks at me and wouldn’t change a thing.”
This afternoon I went to my moms place and went grocery shopping for her; her knee is bothering her. I cleaned up my bookshelf this morning, did laundry and a few other things. I had such a good time last night at the Fasting and Prayer event. Today I was thinking about the message and I believe the Holy Spirit has done something in my heart. I’m more settled about following Jesus and His purpose for my life, having more peace about it. I warmed up soup and made garlic bread for supper. Soup on a winter day is always welcoming!!! Blessings…
