Cancer

Although I have never had cancer.  I have developed a certain hatred towards it since I got saved.  I hate what it does to our bodies.  It is a big enemy in our society.  Cancer is probably one of the scariest words in our vocabulary today.  Just the possibility of the enemy being in our body is enough to scare somebody stiff.  Cancer is a bully!!!!  I hate that it is attacking so many women today.   The scripture that comes to my spirit is below:

Luke 12:4
New King James Version (NKJV)Jesus Teaches the Fear of God
4 “And I say to you, My friends, do not be afraid of those who kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.

For those suffering right now, with this terrible enemy of our bodies, Jesus gives the comfort in the scripture above.  Cancer may be able to detroy the body, but it can't detroy your soul and it can't detroy God's purpose for your life.  Cancer absolutely cannot steal your purpose.  No matter what you go through healthwise, just know that your days were numbered before you were born,  the number of your days will be lived out according to what God has already predestined before you were born

Psalm 139:16

New King James Version (NKJV)
16 Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed.
And in Your book they all were written,
The days fashioned for me,
When as yet there were none of them.
 
The Word of God stands!  It stands in authority over everything.  Everything around us and inside us will respond to the word of God. 
 
One more thing that came to my heart today was this:  "I would give it all up just to have a cancer free body' "I would give it all up, just to have my health back".  You don't realize how much you take your own health for granted until something comes up against you and threatens your health.  I want to exhort all believers today....................If you are pain free and healthy, don't let anything else bother you today.  Only be in pursuit of Jesus today.  Realize that in an instant an enemy could come up against your body, to steal something very precious but not the most precious thing in our lives.  As long as you have your health and you are living pain free.......................use that to serve the Lord.  Enjoy your life!  Jesus died that we may have life and have it more abundantly.  Enjoy your life
 

1 Timothy 6:17

17 Command those who are rich in this present age not to be haughty, nor to trust in uncertain riches but in the living God, who gives us richly all things to enjoy.

Think before you defend yourself

I get on social media and I do my best not to be critical of anyone.  It's not my place.  I do find it kind of interested how personal relationships, insecurities, and hurts are expressed where the whole world can see.  Social media is like this enigma that continues to spark my interest.  I find myself asking "why would he/she share something so deep and personal with people who don't know them or even care?".  I don't necessarily think it's a bad thing.  I just find myself being very curious and intrigued about why? There is one trend I see, on social media, that sparks a bit of concern.  The amount of time we spend defending ourselves and our decisions on social media.  I get concerned because I realize that when we spend a "noticeable" amount of time defending ourselves publicly, it is a strong indication that their is a much bigger private battle going on within .  Social media speaks volumes to me about inner battles we go through. A thou

No more feeling trapped

When I first started being a full-time homemaker, it became a snare to me.  I was very hard on myself and put alot of expectations on myself that were not from God.  My husband would get up early in the morning and go to work and I always felt like I couldn't sleep late.  Not that I got up with him but I remember feeling guilty if I slept past like 9:00am.  Honestly, I felt guilty doing alot of things.  Things that if I could of done freely, I would probably be a lot further then I am now in my writing and other giftings that God has given me.  I spent 2 days a week at home cleaning.  The other 3 days, I struggled.  When I would go to the bookstore to read, I felt guilty.  I would think "Is it fair that I get to relax at the bookstore while my husband out working to provide for us?".  Sometimes I would want to go to the Amish market and eat breakfast.  They had a restaurant in the Amish market with great breakfast.  I would think "Is it fair that I should spend mo

When we are troubled................

Have you have let the challenges you face, become a distraction for you?  I have! Matter-a-fact, I'm going through it now.  I hate it when I do that, because when you begin to let your heart become troubled about something, it's not long before fear begins to creeps in as well.    Then I feel like it gets hard to focus on the other things you need to focus on, and it's hard to enjoy the blessings that you have.  There is such a ripple effect when you let challenges trouble you.  It leads to distraction, then, fear, then it starts to rob you of your peace, your joy and if you let it, it can completely consume you.  God tells us to guard our hearts with all diligence.  There are 2 things in the bible that God tells us to guard:  Our hearts and our mouths.  We have to watch what we let come into our hearts and we have to watch what we allow to proceed from our mouths.  Even though we don't ignore challenges, it's important we don't let them take up residence in our
