The Joy of the Lord is my strength.

Rejoicing

Can the joy of the Lord really be my strength? When I am overwhelmed by this world? When nothing seems to go my way? When life itself is tired with me?


"The Joy of the Lord is My Strength " Nehemiah 8:10

How can those words by true?

I keep believing the bible is true. If the hole word is true then Nehemiah is also?!
There is no lies or portion that's false. All are true.

So...If my GOD says his joy is to be my strength. His joy is my strength. I take his word! I do not need to feel it for it to be true. His joy can really strengthen me when I take my eyes out of me and look to him.

Robin Dance says that " Life is not about my circumstances."

What ever happens in this world or in my life can't take my joy away or deprive me from my strength! I can live joyful because I live for a higher purpose! I keep my eyes on the price. I remind myself that I am just passing on this earth. Here and now is not my destination. It's not my city, I am not home yet, but I can have a joyful journey , no matter what come my way! I can be strong and rejoice!

Keep on rejoicing in the Lord at all times. I will say it again: Keep on rejoicing! Philippians 4:4

Taking things into my hands

" Compromise is the pen that writes the story of your future regrets" Robb Thompson




Random thinking


Why gorgeous and beautiful princesses of the Lord are still single?

I can picture the dream life , a gorgeous husband, beautiful children, me doing the washing  up, him doing the laundry ( yes I want an 21st century guy,no macho!) toddlers and ...I do not really like animals but  a dog in the back yard look great in the picture!...

Humm...

I have see people take things into their hands....

Only to finish by breaking  the Lord principles, with one or two babes but no guy. Did I mention the broken heart  and the  pain that separate them even more from God and others..
Bitter and disappointed...

But I have also see people who let's it into the Lord hands...

They trust HIM and enjoy this wonderful life that he promises.

Is not the GOD who said " For I know the plans I have for you,declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.  "(ref Jeremiah 29:11),great enough to provides in any matter? Even heart one's?

The lord is more then enough! He has to.

I prefer a single and childless life, with the joy of my Lord then the broken heart and separation from him!

He his really more then enough!!!!

I must stay focus on my main propose on this earth : Bring a smile on my father face!

Yes I am not like all my friends,yes life is not perfect, BUT yes the Lord is faithful in all his ways and in every things and every time!

He has always been more then enough . He IS more then enough. He will be more then enough!
What can the world give to someone who has every thing already?

" She laugh at the time to come...and because she feared the Lord she shall be praise." Proverb 31: 25-30

Wait upon the Lord

Wait upon the Lord,

God is the Lord of great blessings. He really answers when we ask him. But we wait for great blessings to come easily. YES we are made for marvelous and miraculous life! But the other one do not want us to enjoy it.
So...
So when great difficulties come ,just wait. Wait upon the Lord. Surely our deliverance is near and great blessings to come. We are being enlarged to go forward. Our difficulties builds our  character and are for his glory.

" Be glad for all God is planning for you."

Living on miracles

Maybe by next year or next month I will need a second job. Only God knows.

But for now even after I'm living on miracles! I am marveled at the grace of God in my life. How he cares,provides and blesses not only by his presence but also by physical acts of love. Every day sometimes hour by hour I can see his hands ,his provisions  in my daily situations. And I wonder how can non believers do life without him? I cannot go through a day without him.Sometimes I need him second to hours, so how do they do it ? A hole life? On their own? 
I just wonder because I know for sure I cannot do life alone. I need Him. I need his help,grace, love, provision,wisdom, patience, cares...

Thanks you Jesus for the little miracles as for the bigs ones. Thanks you for the ones I can testify about, and the ones I can only praise you in the secret place, Thank you for the ones I sometimes don't even see. God is good. Always.And for ever.

I DON'T LIKE PINK

Someone told me : People don't live in your sweet pink world!

I couldn't say any think,but I think about it an realise that :

N° 1 : I don't like pink!

N° 2 : I am not leading my life why worry when I know that HIS love never fails?!

N° 3 : My joy is not base on my circumstances!!!

N° 4 : I have my battles! Like every body,but my lost dreams brings me closer to his heart,through my failures I'v learned I can't do it on my own and I know that's it OK not to be ok!

N° 5 He gives me a notice for this life! My BIBLE has all the answers! I mean it! ALL!

I am not living in a pink world!!!! But definitely in his GRACE!

Thank you Jesus for loving so much!

" The Lord thinks of me"!

" I am poor and needy but the Lord thinks of me!" Psalms 40:17


I just find that's exactly what I need to hear!!! But no only hear it, but ponder about it ,make it mine! The Lord of the universe,the maker of heavens and earth is thinking about me! I am poor and needy but the Lord loves me. He cares about me.


Do I realise how great is th God I serve? Do I realise how important I am to him?
He is never too bussy,or running out of time,He is here always willing, wanting thinking about me.

I may think I am poor and needy,but with God I am rich . I am rich of his love,his grace,his understanding, his caring, desire for my well being.

The Lord think of me,he cares about me and that' enought to live throught the day!!!
