a Make-over

-
Heavenly Father

I have been so busy and occupied with 'things' in my life, that I became too tired and full of excuses to spend the time I want to, with you. I admit that other 'things' took priority over You and for that I humble myself before You, and deeply apologize for my behavior. Heavenly Father, You are so Holy in all Your ways and I deeply desire to be just as holy in all my ways.


And for that, I ask that You:
give me a make-over.. ad do-over
I need a renewed outlook on my life.
I need to recap on my plans and dreams for the future.
I need a fresh touch from You Jesus
Renew my strength
Resuscitate my heart
Rejuvenate my energy
Restore my hope
Restart my life
Recondition my belief
Repair my broken dreams
Reinforce my faith
Revive my spirit
Replace my divided heart… with an undivided one

I will give them an undivided heart and put a new spirit in them; I will remove from them their heart of stone and give them a heart of flesh. Then they will follow my decrees and be careful to keep my laws. They will be my people, and I will be their God. But as for those whose hearts are devoted to their vile images and detestable idols, I will bring down on their own heads what they have done, declares the Sovereign LORD.  ~ Ezekiel 11:19-21

Teach me Your way, O LORD, and I will walk in Your truth; give me an undivided heart, that I may fear Your name. ~ Psalm 86:11

They will be My people, and I will be their God. I will give them singleness of heart and action, so that they will always fear Me for their own good and the good of their children after them. ~ Jeremiah 32:38-39

I will give them a heart to know Me, that I am the LORD. They will be My people, and I will be their God, for they will return to Me with all their heart. ~ Jeremiah 24:7

In Jesus Name I pray
Amen

The Dogwood Tree

-

Here is a small reminder of what happened on Good Friday long ago. The dogwood was the tree chosen to construct the Cross that would be used to take the body of Jesus. Even though His body may have been taken from this earth, His spirit remains and every spring we are blessed with a reminder of the events that unfolded on that fateful weekend. The blooms often appear in the shape of a Cross with holes in the tips of the pedals signifying the nails that were driven into the Cross. If you look closely at these holes you can notice a faint red stain representing the Blood. In the center you will find a green bloom symbolizing the crown of thorns placed on the head of Jesus. The dogwood is more than a tree…it is a representation of life. With every spring we are reminded of what God did for us and given the chance to be reborn and start a new life as “children of God”. (John 3:1)

Bible - Truths

-
And we have known and believed the love that God has in us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him. In this is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment, that as He is, so also we are in this world. There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has torment. He who fears has not been perfected in love. 1John 4:16-18 The Bible says that God is LOVE... And in the same verse it says that there is no fear in love. They are opposites in the Kingdom. If we are operating in fear we are working for the enemy even if we think we are doing something 'righteous'. This would count especially in cases where we care too much what others think of us - if we are fearing people more than we fear God we are people pleasing. Having respect and love for another person is NOT the same as people pleasing and sometimes when we are immature in love we can mistake the two. We need to learn how to have respect and lov
