The Needed Years

If the title of this blog post deeply resonates with you, you have been divinely guided here. Give yourself a pat on the back. You made it to the last day of 2022, and you are crossing over into 2023, with NO negative carryover. Like me, what you’ve experienced all of your life, was due to the anointing that’s on your life. Because of your obedience to faithfully honor God’s holy word in the midst of immense turmoil and seemingly unanswered prayers, he has delivered you from all of the unfairness you have endured. 2022 was a needed year. Quite frankly, ALL of the previous years were needed for what’s ahead. God has cleared your path and he has prepared you to receive his VERY best. He has removed everyone that was not supposed to remain with you along your journey. Although the revelations were very painful, it was for the best. What God is expeditiously releasing to you, will bless you and everyone that remains intimately connected to you. Run into 2023 knowing God’s love for you is endless…

A Feather in the Sky

Feathers of assorted colors and sizes are presented to me often and in various ways. However, today was the first time a huge, beautiful white feather appeared in the sky, right before me. It felt like the gates of heaven opened. You might ask, what do feathers represent? A feather is a sign that an angel is nearby, and the color of the feather delivers its message. A white feather comes from the purest of angels, and is a message of love, protection, light and peace. The presence of a feather can be very comforting, especially when clarity is desired. Psalm 91:4 says, “He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart”. John 4:48 says, “Then said Jesus unto him, except ye see signs and wonders, ye will not believe”.

A New Day

The sun is shining! No matter what life throws your way remember, the rising of the sun affords another opportunity for God to reveal his glory. God’s holy word reminds us of this in Isaiah 60:1, “Arise, shine; for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you”. Go forth knowing, no evil will prevail over you because you are a child of the most high God who lives your life accordingly and his loving son, Christ Jesus holds you in the palm of his hand.

Make Lemonade

Life is for the living, however many are alive but crushed in spirit. When life gives you lemons, make lemonade.

– Trust God’s plan. Invite him into your life.
– Make immediate changes where needed.
– Maintain your endurance.
– Press on in faith.
– Remain patient.
– Enjoy your life.
– Stay focused.

God’s promises (HIS WILL) will be fulfilled in your life. God sees. God hears. God knows. God responds. Psalms 146:2 says, “I will praise the LORD as long as I live; I will sing praises to my God while I have my being”. Enjoy your lemonade.

Overcoming Disappointment

The Power of Mindfulness

Mindfulness is the practice of bringing your attention to the present moment. You are awake, aware, and conscious of your thoughts and where you are in a non-critical or nonjudgmental way. You are processing your thoughts, but you are not necessarily responding or reacting to them. Mindfulness aids in calming the mind and body while positioning yourself to receive the benefits of it. Mindfulness allows you to take a beautiful moment to go within and connect with yourself. Mindfulness assists with surrendering everything beyond your control. Mindfulness aids in freeing the mind, calming the nervous system and increasing spirituality. I hope you incorporate mindfulness into your daily practice or routine. The only moment you have is right now. Listen to our For Mindfulness Sake Podcast to participate in a mini-mindfulness session.

Journey of Life

Every season has a purpose. Navigating the seasons of life can bring much joy and much sorrow. Hibernation occurs in the Winter for protection. Winter can look dreary most days. The Winter of life can equate to a desert, desolate or wilderness season. It’s during a time of hiding that God is our refuge and he works on us. Spring brings pruning to reshape the tree for what’s to come and rain to produce beautiful flowers and new beginnings. Just like the tree, life prunes us. Summer thunderstorms are important for survival and for a good harvest to produce in Fall. The storms of life can be unbearable leaving a long aftermath, cleanup, recovery and rescue. Continue on, the rebuild is always better after the storm. Leaves fall in Fall leaving a bare tree. The leaves must fall to make room for new leaves. Life can strip us naked to start a new. The old leaves are blown away, but some leaves may hang around as a reminder of what once was. Trust God’s timing in your life. He takes you through seasons for a reason. Not all seasons are bad. There are many seasons of life that produce great fruit; new wine, testimonies of God’s goodness, increased faith and to grow and stretch us. KNEEL and PRAY and stand TALL through them ALL.

God Speaks: He holds the key

Today is January 22, 2022. I saw 2:22 on the clock. I logged into FMS dashboard and there were 2,227 comments from followers thus far. The angelic number 2222 represents harmony, serenity, peace and stability. It’s a sign of ONLY good things to come.

Is there some problem in your life to solve,
Some passage seeming full of mystery?
God knows, who brings the hidden things to light.
He keeps the key.

Is there some door closed by the Father’s hand
Which widely opened you had hoped to see?
Trust God and wait for when He shuts the door
He keeps the key.

Is there some earnest prayer unanswered yet,
Or answered NOT as you had thought would be?
God will make clear His purpose by-and-by.
He keeps the key.

Have patience with your God, your patient God,
All wise, all knowing, no long tarrier He,
And of the door of all thy future life
He keeps the key.

Unfailing comfort, sweet and blessed rest,
To know of EVERY door He keeps the key.
That He at last when just HE sees ’tis best,
Will give it THEE.
