Exodus 33:18,19
“Then Moses said, “Now show me your glory.” And the Lord said, “I will cause all my goodness to pass in front of you, and I will proclaim my name, the Lord, in your presence. I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.’ “
My Father, thank-you for your mercy and compassion. I love you so much. I kind of feel like a broken record when I constantly tell you that I love you and when you constantly tell me you love me. But I also feel like this broken record isn’t broken anymore because along the way you’ve been putting all the pieces of my heart and life back together again.
I love you Carolyn. Come closer, I have more in store for you.
Okay Father, I’m resting in my heart and pushing everything else aside; please tell me. There’s nothing better than you. I worship you Father with my whole heart and I’m committed to serving you and following you my whole life. You are so great; there’s truly nothing that’s better than you.
My dear one, you are Mine and I value you. I will give you the desires of your heart because you’ve shown me an undivided heart. This trial is over and you’ve won; you’ve passed the test. Come my daughter, follow me.
Okay Dad, I can’t imagine not following you -I surely would be lost. I will always follow you and walk with you..
Reflection:
This is my 400th post!! Yay!!! A few days ago Lucas finished reading the book, The End Games, and wanted to watch the movie. I had seen it many years ago and honestly I don’t enjoy watching it because it involves innocent older kids. But I allowed it and also watched as I was doing things around the house. The ending is really great because both of the main characters won as a team. Last night we watched Captain America -the Winter Soldier, and there was a something I saw that completely amazed me. Yesterday right after I had written in my post that I had woken up and had seen that it was 3:09, I saw that the total words or characters that I had written so far was 539. I originally had put it in my post but deleted it, thinking it was too wordy. But I think it’s important because in the movie when Captain America and Black Widow were going down in an old elevator where he had been trained many years ago, the number 539 on the elevator flashed so quickly that I almost missed it. I think I need to go back and watch that part again to make sure but I think that was the number.
Changing the subject but thinking of my dream two nights ago, I think building a strong foundation (with God in the center, who is real love) before wanting to build a tall building always comes first. Its like the words I heard in my heart one morning right before I woke up, “Deep roots that are being grown is a deep friendship being built.” I had a conversation yesterday morning with someone who was given this opportunity of starting completely fresh, but wouldn’t take it because they weren’t willing to make the effort, so in this relationship, in their heart this person has walked away. But this is like building a house on the sand; when the storms of life come, a person like this will fall. Anyway, I’m going to wait until after the service tonight to bake. It won’t take that long but I’d be too rushed if I baked before heading to the city. Many blessings…. ☕️
