INTO THE PATIENT WAITING...

This poem (at the end of the post) was given to me by Melissa C. last summer at THRBC - it pointed me to my LORD and reminded me of the Scripture that clearly states:      "For My thoughts are not your thoughts,  nor are your ways My ways," says the LORD.   "For as the heavens are higher than the earth,  so are My ways higher than your ways,  and My thoughts than your thoughts."  Isaiah 55:7-8 "...for as the heavens are higher than the earth..." Child of My love, fear not the unknown morrow. Dread not the new demand life makes of Thee, Thine ignorance doth hold no cause for sorrow, For what thou knowest not is known to Me. Thou canst not see today the hidden meaning of My command, but Thou the light shall gain. Walk on in faith, upon My promise leaning, And as thou goest, all shall be made plain.

Cuppies and Jo with one of my best friends - thanks for coming to OKC :-) "conversation...friendship...Jesus Christ" My friend came to visit. And the Lord blessed our conversation with many laughs, encouragement, joy, and a reality of peace that we (as the Bride of Christ) move forward with Him and follow Him. The following thoughts are in regards to a few things we chatted about and of a conviction in my heart to change my perspective in areas of my life.  - - -  Do you ever wonder why God places certain "things" in our lives - and why certain "things" seem to take weeks/months/years to ever be answered? And as one waits for answers, you find yourself contemplating every scenario (past/present/future), every question, every motive...literally dissecting the "thing" until it's no longer what it was originally? The last question gives me this image of a hamster continually running on that little wheel that continually goes...but never r

My friend Liz inspired me to write - she'll be blogging while she's serving the LORD in Colombia...so I need to keep her up-to-date about my life :-)  1st - Quote of the Day "Students will explore the mysterious world of antonyms." OK - this made me laugh SO SO hard!!! It might not make you laugh - but if anyone likes English...you have to understand that antonyms are not mysterious. They are either black or white, positive or  negative, agreeable or disagreeable. That's all. 2nd - my studies in Hebrews have ended...though I've come to see it as one of the richest books in the Word of God. The Lord taught me so much about Jesus being the revealer of God and the representative of   man. 3rd - Going through the NT is my next personal goal. The book of Matthew has been read...it was finished yesterday, but I am still stuck on the ending of the book. The Great Commission. We always hear such emotional charges from preachers to be zealous about these verses - an
