GOD -

You are good. So, so good.

Your humbled daughter

please pray for my Grandmother

Please pray for my Mammy. She went to the ER tonight b/c she was having trouble breathing and she was having terrible pain in her side. They found that her gall bladder is full of stones and inflamed and have sent her home late tonight with pain meds. She is supposed to meet with the surgeon tomorrow and schedule the surgery for maybe the following day, hopefully earlier than that.
Please pray with me that the surgeon would see the need to take precaution and go on earlier with the surgery rather than later. In the area where I live a man had an inflamed gallbladder and it turned into gangrene rather quickly (a couple of days).
Better yet, pray that GOD would heal her and dissolve every last stone & the pain associated with it :))

Dear GOD, You see the need of my Mammy, and I pray that you would surround her with a peace that passes all understanding and help her to be pain free from this gallbladder issue. You are my Healer. And I truly believe that! I have seen Your mighty hand in work, and I know that You move mountains! Amen.

On and On by Chasen

"Some say we need a miracle
Some say there’s no hope at all
But I know Your love is strong, it goes on and on and on and on
Rise up when it gets us down
It’ll be the voice in a blaring crowd
Because we know Your love will lead us home
It goes on and on and on and on…

I tried my way
It always ends up being a mistake
But You’re right when You say
That You set the time for the plans You make
I never thought that I could ever learn to let it go
Somehow its better when I follow in the paths You show
So I’m here I’m waiting
Cause I believe
"On and On" Chasen


** I know, three posts in one day. lol.

a GOD moment :))


Things you take for granted, GOD uses them too. Even a bothersome slip of paper on your windshield :))

I SO had a GOD moment today after classes. I got in my car and noticed there was a little slip of paper (as on every other car) on my windshield. So, I get out and grab it.

Let me explain the backstory before I go any further. On Monday, I was talking to a person in one of my classes, telling them what I was doing after graduation [GOING TO MALI!!! :))] and they asked me a question I've been trying to avoid myself.

"Aren't you scared of the rebels and things like that surrounding Mali in other nations?"

To be totally honest, which I wasn't that day with the person I was speaking with, I am afraid of that. BUT, I know that the GOD who told me to do this will be right by my side the entire way, so in a way I'm not. And just so you guys know, the area I'm moving to is safe & free religion.
But it's been in the back of my mind on the back burner for the last couple of days.

Okay, back to what happened today...

I turned over the slip of paper that I found on my windshield, and it said,
"Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your GOD goes with you; He will never leave you nor forsake you." Deuteronomy 31:6

What an amazing GOD moment! Can I just say that He is for you, today! Every day!! When He tells you to do something, be sure that He won't leave you hanging. He is right there with you. He goes before you to prepare the way, as a verse right after the one above (Deut. 31:8a - "The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you...").

GOD is SO wonderful! Words cannot express His greatness. Right now I am just a child in awe of Him :))

Wordless Wednesday

I love when it randomly hits me that I'm moving to Africa next year :))

I would go to the ends of the earth for You...

Love unfailing, overtaking my heart. You take me in. I would give the world to tell Your story. Cuz I know that You've called me. I know that You've called me. I've lost myself for good within Your promise. And I won't hide it. I won't hide it. Jesus, I believe in You! And I would go to the ends of the earth, to the ends of the earth for You. You alone are the Son of GOD and all the world will see that You are GOD. You are GOD.
