Life inside of you

Jesus said in John 10:10  that He came that that we may have life, and have it more abundantly.  As I was walking outside this morning with my son.  I started thinking about all the things I'm doing, all the things I want to do and how in the world is it going to happen.  I clearly heard in my spirit that it's all gonna come out, you just have to keep pushing.  There is a life on the inside of you, that you need to push out.  Many of us have pushed our goals, aspirations, and dreams for life to the side.  I challenge you to re-visit those things through prayer and see what God has to say.  Sometimes, you dream about life being a certain way for years and years, and nothing happens.  You wonder what God is going to do with all your dreams and aspirations.  Will He do anything with them?  Are they from Him?  I asked all these questions over the years.  Then BOOM! God has got me in this place where He is bringing it all to pass.  But I have to push it out, as I trust Him.  When you are pregnant and in labor, your pushing and it feels like "it's taking forever to push this baby out".  But you know it's coming out now!  Your body is going to push.  During labor, you get tired during the pushing and you feel like you can't push anymore.  But your supporters are saying, you have to push. 

There is life on the inside of you and when God is ready to birth that life, you have to push.   You won't always feel like it, but God is saying "you have to push, the life has got to come out".  This is happening to me right now.  I'm pushing it all out, I don't know how long this season is going to last.  But I know I'm pushing it all out.  Every dream that God has given me for my life, my family, my home, my ministry.............He is telling me to push.  It feels awkward, it feels weird pushing so many things out in so many different areas of life.  But that's how God works.  With God, when it rains, it pours.  But don't get overwhelmed by the pouring out.  Just push, keep pushing.  Trust God to order your steps and keep pushing.  When you feel like you can't push anymore, just remember your almost there, but you have to push.  The Holy Spirit is your birth coach.

Starting your day

When I begin my day with a fast pace and a mind to "get things done" it really never ends well.  I burn out pretty fast.  When I take a "rest stop" at the very beginning of my day with God and linger a little, the day always goes better.  Micah 7:7 says: Therefore I will look to the LORD;       I will wait for the God of my salvation;       My God will hear me.  It seems as if when I don't start my day with God a cycle of self-dependence starts and it never ends well.  When I start my day with God, dependence on Him starts my day and He reminds me during morning devotional time to lean on Him to get through the day.  It helps me to not get "caught up"  I pray that for today, that I don't get caught up.  Noah is home from school, not feeling very well.  I just want to lean on God and trust Him to bring her comfort and help her to heal today.  I'm praying that I to would...

Testimony - great customers, great tips, $400 refunded from my school, Financial blessings

I had to blog about this.  I couldn't keep this to myself.  Something happened a couple days ago.  Just to share a little bit of the backstory before I tell you, my husband and I had a huge financial crisis about 3 years ago.  Things have gotten better little by little but it takes grind, especially on his part.  He is a great husband and dad so he takes pleasure in providing for his family.  This is a great entry point into what I'm about to share with you.  As we were approaching the beginning of the school year there were some other expenses approaching as well.  My husband and I believe our kids should be involved in extra curricular activities.  As they get older we feel they need constructive ways to channel their energy.  And they need to get away from the constant lure of the Ipad.  This is a big challenge for today's generation and you have to be proactive, especially with your children.  Anyway,  my daughter wa...

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. ...
