Curious title, huh?
Well the revival our church in in - with Bishop Ron Duncan - is such an eye opening blessing. I'm not the same person today that walked in to revival Wednesday night. The enemy is trying to steal the blessing but he WILL NOT!
Life sometimes "is not what we expect", but through the unexpected circumstances, God has a blessing waiting for us when we endure. I don't always understand why, but I trust in Him to go with me, I am not alone!
One of the hardest things I have ever done in my life is WAIT. I, like most perople, want it and want it NOW. I thank God that He dosen't work that way. I've learned that in the waiting I grow stronger when I focus on Him and not the problem. The enemy wants me to focus on the circumstance cause then my focus is off God. Not!
As of today, Friday, God's peace and comfort are with me and whatever He wants me to do for His ministry is ok. I remember that God does not always called the equipped but He equips those He calls. Ever wonder why? I believe it's beause then we will walk in His way and not our own. i want to walk in God's footsteps!
I pray you have received a revelation in your life from the Lord and that you do all you can to bless His people! Have a super blessed day!!!

Wow, have I told you how amazing God is?
I love to help people. I love to talk to people especially those I don't yet know even if just to say hi. The expression on their face is priceless! Many people go through their entire day without a word of encouragement. Hope and encouragement are shared just by recognizing their existence and speaking to them, looking into their eyes. Showing your appreciation of them. Yea, you know I'm talking about the people you walk by and the workers in the businesses you shop.
I challenge you to try it. Don't just speak to them, but look into their eyes, showing them their worth as a human being. Mean what you say, especially if you tell them to have a blessed day! Don't be all doom and gloom. Have God's love shining on your face as well as in your heart, no matter what may be going on in your life! Talk about busting the enemy in the mouth!
In the past two weeks I have not been as focused as I usually am. I've been forgetful, and not at my 100%. I've been praying about a situation and last night, it is so amazing how de-stressed I felt! For the first time within those two weeks, I could focus and realize the direction God wants me to go at this moment in my life.
God loves me so much and wants me to be focused in ALL areas of my life. I'm thankful to Him for the responsibilities He has blessed me with and I was allowing myself to get too overloaded. Never wanting to say no, not wanting to let someone down.
But last Thursday, a very precious friend of mine kinda scared me. She told me not to put more on my plate than I can handle. Well, I thought (in myself) that I can do it all. But it turned my focus to prayer even more. I want to be a willing vessel filled by God for His ministry. This cannot be accomplished without focus. I was allowing myself to be too piled with responsibility that could not be achieved because I was loosing my balance.
God, thank you so much for loving me and blessing me with friends to gently show me when I need balance in my life. Not only my home life but also my church ministry. Thank you for showing me how I can still achieve the ministry I feel you want me to and not let others down.
I want to continue to grow in HIS IMAGE and I want His focus to be my focus.
