Dealing with Us
Bible Reading Today: Ezekiel 22-23
Ezekiel 22:14 Can thine heart endure, or can thine hands be strong, in the days that I shall deal with thee? I the LORD have spoken it, and will do it.
One of the hardest things to do is self-reflection. We are quick to point us what's in front of us, who's in front of us, but what about...US? Are our hearts listening, ready to endure what God wants to say to us? Are our hands strong enough to make the necessary changes we need to make? We have to be open to God dealing with us, but we have to deal with the "us" factor first! We can't be distracted by "them;" we need to focus on us! As the Scripture states, The Lord spoke it, and He's going to do it! We all need to come vulnerable before God, ready for Him to deal with us, so we can be better for them!

A Moment of Silence.

But a Spiritual one. Knowing that creation Would mean redemption. It would mean... Heaven needs to touch earth... Light would need to pierce the veil of darkness... The process of creating was ongoing... All the way to the point of creating in us clean hearts (Psalm 51:10) by being born again of water &...
The Heart of the Struggle
Focus Scripture: But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart. Luke 2:19 Hello again! It's been about 4 months since I've stepped back into this space, and I have to say, I am taking very gentle steps. It's been on my heart so much to write again, but I am treading lightly. I may not post every day, unless God leads me there again...but for now, I am just moving forward in God's grace. I have some blog ideas stored up that I've been saving over time as I reflect upon His...
