Vessels.

I love it when your praying for peace, and the Lord uses those we love to lift up, and encourage. I got a series of text messages from my dear friend Alicia Dishno this morning, and they were completely needed. I'm so grateful!!

"Exodus 40:36-38 Whenever the cloud was taken up from above the tabernacle, the children of Israel would go onward in all their journey's, but if the cloud was not taken up, they did not journey till the day that it was taken up. For the cloud of the Lord was above the tabernacle, by day and fire was over it at night, in the sight of all the house of Israel throughout all their journeys. Everything is in the Lord's timing! When He wants us to move, He tells us. Otherwise we know He just wants us to rest in Him! But we know that night or day, whether we're moving or standing still, He is with us in all our journeys!"

Such a blessing to wake up to! The reminder that He holds us in His hands, and we aren't able to escape that-even when our flesh doesn't understand, and we try to handle things on our own....He cares,loves,and patiently waits for us. That's HUGE

The heart of a girl by Peter Bradley Adams


(He's my new Favorite....)


The waiting is over

There's a break in the weather
And I will build my house again

My faith was broken

But it wasn't for nothing
And I will learn to walk again
Time won't wait
Plans they come
Scattered by the wind
Here I am
And the day will come when I find my rest again
You showed me the heart of a girl
And I wrapped you in ribbons and curls
We lived in a handsome world
We had it all
Don't ask where I'm going
There's no way of knowing
Anyway there's more to see
You made me a promise
And you've known me the longest
And I'll finally get some sleep
Time won't wait
Plans they go
Scattered by the wind
Here I am
Day will come
And I find my breath again
You showed me the heart of a girl
And I wrapped you in ribbons in curls
We lived in a handsome world
We had it all...
We had it all
You showed me the heart of a girl
And I wrapped you in ribbons and curls
We lived in a handsome world
We had it all...

Feb 19th-Blessings through prayer
'Once again I will yield to the plea of the house of Israel and do this for them.'-Ezekiel 36:37

"Prayer is the forerunner of mercy. Search through sacred history, and you will find that hardly ever did a great mercy come to this world, without prayer paving it's way. God has given many blessings without being asked, but still, great prayer has always preceded great mercy. As you think about the great joys of your life, you have seen them as answers to prayer. Prayer is always the preface to blessing. So we see the value of prayer. If we had the blessings without asking for them, we would take them for granted. But prayer makes our mercies more precious than diamonds. The things we ask for are precious, but we do not realize how precious until we have earnestly asked God for them."

Feb 20th-Comfort from God
'God,who comforts the downcast.'-2 Corinthians 7:6

"Who can comfort us like God? One word from God is like a piece of gold, and the Christian is like the goldsmith, who hammers out the promise for weeks on end. So then, Christian, you don't need to sit down in despair. Go to the Comforter. Ask Him to give you consolation. You are a poot, dry well. So Christian, when you are dry, go to God. Ask Him to dowse your soul with joy. Then your joy will be full. Don't go eartly friends. But go first and foremost to the God who comforts the downcast, and you will soon find yourself saying, "When anxiety was great within me, Your consolation brought joy to my soul."(Ps. 94:19)

Feb 21st-God's Promises
'God has said.'-Hebrews 13:5

"When we hide ourselves within the fortress of this statement, all the distresses of life, all it's traps and trials seem light and easy to bear. This simple truth gives us delight in times of quiet meditation, and it gives us strength for our daily battles. There may be a promise in God's Word that would fit your situation exactly, but you may not know it, so you miss out on it's comfort. You are like a prisoner in a dungeon, with a ring of keys. One of the keys would unlock the dorr and free you. But if you don't look for it, you will remain a prisoner, though your liberty is so close at hand. "He has said" is the source of all wisdo. Let it dwell in you richly.

From Jesus

When the rain comes, it seems that everyone has gone away. When the night falls you wonder if you shouldn't find someplace, to run and hide, escape the pain, but hiding's such a lonely thing to do. I can't stop the rain, from falling down on you again, I can't stop the rain, but I will hold you 'til it goes away. When the rain comes, you blame it on the things that you have done. When the storm fades, you know that rain must fall on everyone, So rest awhile, it'll be alright, cause no one loves you like I do. When the rain comes, I will hold you.


-Third Day
