Excerpt from His Princess, Love Letters from Your King by Sheri Rose Shepherd... My Princess, its ok to cry...I see how hard you try to handle your heart and I know you want to live a life without heartaches or pain. I'm asking you to take a step closer to your Father in heaven crying out to Me when you hurt. Let Me heal you. Remember My chosen, King David? He cried out to Me in his fears, disappointments, and sin-and I answered. You are My chosen one and you are My daughter... so its ok to cry. I dont expect you to pretend that pain is not real. It is truth and tears that will give you the freedom that I want you to know. Now let go of that part of your heart that only I can heal. Let your heavenly Daddy hold you while you cry. Love-your King who wipes away your tears Psalm 126:5 Do you find truth in this letter? Can you relate? I can... Life is full of heartache some caused by
others some sadly self inflicted... Where do you turn when hurt-to The King or to other things?

Hurts n Healing

Why does it seem so easy to hurt people-people we care about, people we say we love n treasure, people we promise to always be there for? Have you ever done that to someone or had it happen to you? What have you done to move past it or bring reconcilliation to the friendship? As always your thoughts are welcome-afterall, if we are gonna sit a spell and share a cuppa then we must chat! This blog is not just about what i think-i want to hear from you too :)

Revealing those hidden blooms

In Eph. 5:18, Paul tells us to 'Be filled with the spirit.' Just because we are a Christian-a 'new' creation-does NOT automatically eliminate our old sinful nature-darn it! We need to stay filled with the spirit! Is this how we reveal our hidden blooms too? Just like a car cannot run forever on that 1st tank of gas we put in it when its new, neither can we! We need to 'pull up to the pump' regularly! Does that compare to pulling the weeds outta my garden to reveal my hidden blooms? Is it time for me to 'pull up to the pump again?' Hmmm... Why is it this way-we have to be consistently 'pulling weeds' or 'pulling up to the pump'... Perhaps afrad we live in a world that depletes us spirisally and we contend with a 'core of carnality' that seeks to defeat us. thoughts?

Hidden Blooms?

This is one of my favorite flowers in my beds! RECENTLY AS I THOUGHT about my knock-out rose, I contemplateD all the work that goes into it. None of the work is difficult. In fact most of the work needed for this rose is quite simple! It just takes consistency...One thing I noticed this year was that even when the weeds were HUGE around it-it still bloomed amazingly. The only problem was seeing those blooms cuz the weeds blocked the blooms from view. Is this how my spiritual 'blooms' work at times? the work isn't hard-just takes consistency! Can I be in 'bloom' and noone see it cuz the 'weeds' have just gotten too big that they block my 'blooms'? your thoughts? Please share :) P.S. sorry for the all caps in the one sentence-I could NOT get it to go back to lowercase there!

for you

God determines who walks into your life....it's up to you to decide
who you let walk away, who you let stay, and who you refuse to let go.

When there is nothing left but God, that is when you find out that God is
all you need.

Father, God bless my friend in whatever it is that You know they may
need this day! And may their life be full of your peace, prosperity,
and power as he/she seeks to have a closer relationship with you.

Amen.

What is keeping you from God's best today?

Hey all-I tried to mobile blog this am & it failed miserably!!! I cannot figure out WHY it keeps "wing-dinging" it for me... here I am... so this was what I WANTED to post this morning...

Good morning (afternoon now) on this rainy Friday! Since a blog is a place to share what we are pondering... here goes! I hope you're ready =) "Don't let discouragement dull your faith or procrastination steal your opportunity. You've go to decide whether you're going to accept what God has for you now and move forward OR return to 'your house'... because unfinished business can cause you to miss God's best (as can waiting for others-see John 5:70 NOTHING is more important than what God is saying and doing IN your life right now: NOT what's going on in your house, NOT the actions or opinions of others. What matters is being ready"-READY FOR WHAT GOD WANTS for you. What do you need to let go of OR leave behind in order to be ready for God's best?
