Alive!!

1 Corinthians 13:7

“It (love) always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.” 

My Dad, I’m pressing into you. What is on your heart today?

That I love you Caroline. Come my daughter and rest, all is well with you. You’ve shown yourself to be faithful, and I will show my faithfulness to you. 

Father, I’m overwhelmed by your Goodness in my life, and I can never thank you enough..

Caroline my daughter, you are Mine and I delight in you.

Thank-you Father. Thank-you for leading me to do my recordings and for helping me do each one. I learned that I couldn’t do any of them without your help. Thank-you for everything you’ve taught me in this journey, and thank-you for being my Dad in every hardship. Thank-you for leading me closer to you.

I love you my daughter; I am near to you. My daughter, there’s more. There’s more I want you to write. What’s on your heart my daughter in the days to come? Write about that.

Father, you want me to keep on writing, even when difficulties come?

Yes my daughter -reflect.

Okay Dad, I will. Thank-you – I love you…

Reflection:

Yay I got to play some arcade games yesterday -fun! I baked banana muffins with a bit of coconut flour yesterday:) Today I opened my bible to 1 Corinthians 13, and as I read verse 7 the thing that stood out to me the most was that love always perseveres. I think it’s really interesting that we always want growth in our lives and know that it’s good, but most of us do the exact opposite where we always want to stay where it’s comfortable, and this is me! I’ve realized that staying where it’s the most comfortable doesn’t produce passion! When I think about the things I’m passionate about, I didn’t know that I’d be passionate about them when I first began doing them, and the only reason I continued doing these things is because God wanted me to. God knows us so much better than we do! Some of the things I’m passionate about like writing and spending time with God have become a passion for me because I’ve persevered in doing them every day. Deepening my relationship with Jesus my husband has been so life-giving.. Some other areas of passion in my life that I’ve put down are voice lessons and cross-training. I’m starting cross-training again this week! And when I’m alone at home I get out my voice lessons binder and practice the songs that I had been working on in the past, and I love it! Something that I know is a passion of mine, not because I’ve been doing it for a long time but because I know where the Lord is leading me, and that is speaking. I’ve gotten my feet wet a bit and so far it’s still awkward for me, but deep down I know that I absolutely love being on stage -the only reason for me to be on stage is because God is so great and he’s done so much in my life that I need to share what he’s done. His love for me has woken me up!!

I had a quick dream last night; I was running free between two rows of white living-room curtains. The curtains went all the way up; I didn’t see a ceiling or the top of the curtains but it seemed to be many stories high, and the length of the curtains/room was really long. The material was a white, semi-transparent fabric we’d see at weddings. It was really bright between the curtains, like daylight, and the curtains flowed a bit. I ran with so much joy in my heart!!! Then I had a quick sense of my curtains at home and knew that there was such a big difference. I really felt alive as I ran between the white curtains. I believe it represents freedom and life because the air movement in the white curtains I believe represent the Holy Spirit. I hope you’ll have a good week -blessings! 👍🏻
