psalm 73.26c

Here’s My Heart Lord

written by: Sandy Blaser, Healing Rain to the Nations

My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. (Psalm 73:26)

O Lord, prompt me to open my Bible, to read and meditate upon Your Word. Remind me of the power of Prayer and teach me to linger at your feet, listening for your still small voice. Remind me of the importance of keeping Your Word deep inside my heart. Oh God I desire to know your very heartbeat! Set my heart ablaze O Lord. Let the beauty of Your goodness and love shine brightly to others, through Your light burning inside me! My heart’s desire is to radiate your love that other’s may be drawn to the light of Jesus Christ! Here’s my heart Lord.

dont give up2

Don’t give up!!

written by: Sandy Blaser, Healing Rain to the Nations

God knows your name, your nature, and your need today! But, the Father is searching the earth for hearts that are hungry, thirsty, and desperate for Him, seeking for a place where His glory may reside. Therefore, I encourage you; let the first steps of your day lead you into your “Sanctuary”. Enter in with a heart of worship and tarry there. Take the time to listen, to ask, to seek, to knock and to know, the heart of our Lord.

So no matter how discouraged you may get…Never give up!! Remember, just one word from God, one touch from our Savior, can transform a life forever!

Being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. (Philippians 1:6)

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them. (Ephesians 2:10)

Listen to this beautiful song of surrender…..

Come As You Are

To all who are broken hearted and hurting, lift up your face towards Heaven!! I challenge you to listen to this beautiful, powerful song. As you sit quietly, listen to the words, allowing them to penetrate deep into your heart…..

Absolutely nothing is hidden from Christ. You see, God knows if you are ripped and ragged, lonely or shamed, yet HE loves you with an everlasting love and desires His best for you!! So stop running away from Him! Stop trying to figure things out on your own…Look Up my Friend!! No matter how dark your world may seem or what circumstances you may be facing, no matter how shattered and broken you may be – HOPE can be found in Christ alone!

Be still and listen…Hear the Spirit of the Lord beckoning you…”Lay down your burdens, lay down your shame…All who are broken…Lay down your hurt, lay down your heart, and COME as you are!”

You will find Christ Jesus is quick to forgive and restore, His Grace is so sufficient! You see, He knows all about you and yet you are chosen. He has a most perfect divine plan for your life! So lift up your face …Oh weary wanderer COME HOME!! Jesus is knocking at your hearts door, so come… surrender your life…FALL into His open arms! “Lay down your burden, lay down your hurt, lay down your heart….Come As You Are! Earth has no sorrow that Heaven can’t heal.”

Psalm 55.22c

Surrender it all

Did you know You were never meant to carry a heavy load! 

The Lord promises to carry all your heartaches and burdens, if only you will trust Him and allow Him to work in your circumstances. He promises He will not permit the godly to slip or fall. He will give clear divine direction …if only you listen. “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.” (Matt 11:28) ”Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.” (Proverbs 3:5-6)

So be quick to give your problems, your concerns and cares to the Lord, releasing the weight of it upon His shoulders. As you stand in total submission, the Lord will uphold you and pour over you His amazing love, blessing you with His jOy and sweet peace, even in the midst of it all.

So if you are tired and weary from carrying a heavy load…give it all to Jesus..Surrender it all!!  Look to the Lord, confirm your love and trust in Him, you will be amazed at how your faith will arise to new heights and your steps will be made steadfast and sure!  Release that heavy load, casting it all upon Jesus. Afterall He has given you His Word….”Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken.” (Psalm 55:22) and He will never forsake those who seek Him with all their heart….(Psalm 9:10)

Lord have your way in me…I surrender!!

tutu

  “Fluff  Your Tu-Tu”

Ever been around a person with an abrasive personality?

Did you know…people can’t get under your skin unless you allow them to!  Recognize that some people are just plain ole self-centered energy  drainer’s!  Don’t allow yourself to be hooked into their situation’s.  Now you can’t control what others say and do, but you can control how you respond or react to certain situation’s.

So….Have a canned   response ready “Thank you for your input” and walk away or sometimes it’s best to say nothing and walk away! Realize that most often it isn’t about you but about them. But   once you react to others craziness, it then becomes about you too.

So, learn to laugh and see the humor of the situation. Next time just fluff your Tu-Tu and dance away!!

“The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery;  idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.” (Galatians 5:19-22)

Therefore, As God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.” (Colossians 3:12)  Be blessed by this beautiful song below…~ Healing Rain to the Nations

 

 ”Lord I Need You” – Chris Tomlin

 

Lady The Wife of

Noble  Character

This scripture speaks of how to be an excellent Wife and Mother, but the first step is to spend time with the Lord, preparing your heart and drawing closer to the heart of the Father. No matter what stage you are in life, or in your walk with the Lord, striving to become a Proverbs 31 Woman should be put into practice daily.So I encourage you to keep the scriptures posted before you. The ‘Proverbs 31’ Wife is a good provider and protector for all those she loves and cares about. She may be wise to the ways of the world, but her life is guided by the wisdom of God. The key to being a Wife of noble character is found in verse 30, …”But a woman who fears the LORD, she shall be praised”.

My prayer is that you will become a dynamic reflection of God’s amazing love!

Proverbs 31 Woman

A wife of noble character who can find?

She is worth far more than rubies.

Her husband has full confidence in her and lacks nothing of value.

She brings him good, not harm, all the days of her life. She selects wool and flax and works with eager hands.

She is like the merchant ships, bringing her food from afar.

She gets up while it is still night; she provides food for her family and portions for her female servants.

She considers a field and buys it; out of her earnings she plants a vineyard.

She sets about her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks.

She sees that her trading is profitable, and her lamp does not go out at night. In her hand she holds the distaff and grasps the spindle with her fingers.

She opens her arms to the poor and extends her hands to the needy. When it snows, she has no fear for her household; for all of them are clothed in scarlet.

She makes coverings for her bed; she is clothed in fine linen and purple. Her husband is respected at the city gate, where he takes his seat among the elders of the land.

She makes linen garments and sells them, and supplies the merchants with sashes.

She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come.

She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue.

She watches over the affairs of her household and does not eat the bread of idleness. Her children arise and call her blessed; her husband also, and he praises her: “Many women do noble things, but you surpass them all.”

Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. Honor her for all that her hands have done, and let her works bring her praise at the city gate.
