Choices and the masses

What drives your decisions? For most of us its, well ourselves. "What's best for me" "what can I handle" "how will this make me look" "how will this make me feel" in a way I almost feel like these are word curses. In the fact that they stop us from thinking about God in your decisions. What does God want you to do and how does God want you to act? He has placed things in our lives for a reason and maybe even more than one. And its never just about us. We have the world to think about. In all honesty its true the whole world gets affected by our choices.
My husband becoming a cop doesn just change our family and friends but thousands! Our story as couple and as individuals has the potential to change thousands. Not that we are that cool but thats how life works. If you think about how many friends you have then how big your family is and you do that for each person you know. You'll be thinking of this for hours and never really find an end.

I dont say this to you to scare you when you make choices, but to inspire a more God like way of thinking. "How will this choice impact the kingdom of Heaven"

You have some choices to make:)

It's just a honda....

As I was driving to work this morning I saw a Honda that is just like one of my ex boyfriends. Now when we were dating I helped him pick out this car that he now has to this day. And is now his family car for him and his beautiful family. I chuckled and thought "wow, God how life changes" and a big life lesson is in that.

I think as human's we forget that our circumstances are not our life. Life changes all the time and whatever you are in right now is a season. Now reminders of this season may always be around like this car,but life will always be moving. And God will always be a constant in each season. For example iam now married to a man I love more than own life, we have a great life together,but when I picked out that car I thought I was going to be in that passenger seat for alot longer then I was. But his premises are new every morning. He knew that was just a season and how he was going to change and bless my life.

Today is my birthday....

Today is my birthday, iam 26. And instead of my normal need to feel spoiled today my feelings are ones of greatfulness! God has given me 26 years of life and a full one with amazing highs and the lowest of lows. But in everything he has been by my side loving me and shaping me for his plan. He has revealed a little more of his plan in the last few months and it exists me to no end to know he made me for such things! And he has given me the best support a person could ever ask for, a husband who is more than a girl could pray for then a family that loves me more than life and then my amazing friends that have turned into famliy! I want to thank everyone in my life! You have all helped me and supported me more than I could ever say! God is good and has blessed me! I LOVE my life:) Happy life/birthday to me! Lol

He will overcome....

Listening to Jeremy Camp on the way to work today and it was is song that talks about how Jesus is a overcomer and how we will overcome because of the blood of Christ. How blessed and true is this song!

No matter what or where you are in life you can and will overcome if you choose to give it to God, the overcomer! How amazing is this, God wants to take your hard times and worries and bless you with his love. 

Amen! God you are more than good to us! So no matter what you feel like you have to overcome today, lift it to Christ. Lift your relationship up to christ if it is going through hard times, lift your work day up to christ, lift your workout to christ, lift your life up to christ Jesus. He is YOUR overcomer!

Sharing a a realization and prayer...

This moring when getting ready God showed me how deep my spirit of a victim goes. I held on to the victim card for so long I just acted like one in every area of my life. To the point where it was hurting my relationship with my husband and every other person in my life. How can I be a great wife, friend, or daughter of God if I find my identity is in my spirit of a victim? I have a blessed and happy life. Things are amazing, I have a wonderful job ,i work with kind and compassionate people, my husband is in backgrounds with two police departments, the friends and family we have are amazing! So why hold on to the victim card? No reason is good enough!! Because if we hold on to the victim card we dont open ourselves to the blessings we are intended to receive from God.

So my prayer this morning was:

Lord I no longer want to be a victim. Iam not a victim, iam a survivor! Iam not a victim of my life and the things that happened. Iam strong. Iam strong because my God is mighty! Lord take this spirit of a victim and cast it as far as you can from me. I want your blessings,your love. I want to know you more and love you more. Use me Lord because I love you!

Advice for my single ladies...

This wont be long my loves, this just a bit of info I've learned in my life and I want to pass it on.

Most single Christian women spend too much time dwelling on the dream/prayer for a husband /boyfriend. For example, every time I went to conference I would get all dressed up for those two or three days thinking "maybe I will meet my husband her!" I got things out of all the teachings but I could have gotten more! I missed out on the true meaning of those 3/4 days.

I see soo many women/girls worried about the husband more than God's timing or plan for them. Whole ministries are being developed to train women to be wives or how to wait for a husband. I'm sorry I know hearts are in the right place with wanting to help women of God grow. But focus on God and grow. THE MORE YOU THINK,DREAM,OR DWELL ON THE FACT YOU DONT HAVE A MAN THE MORE YOU WILL MISS OUT ON THE ONLY MAN THAT MATTERS MOST....GOD!! 

Ladies I want you to see that this time of being single is a gift from God and if you take classes and do this and that trying to get away from his gift how is HE suppose to bless you in this time?

Trust me your husband is out there and he needs this time aswell. He needs to grow and develop into the man you want to marry. Just as you need to develop in the woman he wants to spend the rest of his life with. Dont rush, because the best things in life are worth waiting for! You are one of those things!  So enjoy this time, see all God has for you in this time. And please stop by thinking about boys all the time! Lol:)

Oranges...

Imagine a orchard full of Orange trees. The sun is shining and they are all growing. Some make more fruit than others. Some make soo much fruit the tree can barely hold all the oranges. And then imagine a tree in the middle of it all with only one Orange. Should the tree be mad at the sun? Curse it for not giving it much fruit, not enough light? Or should the tree look deeper to find out why its not baring much fruit? How deep do we look at ourselves?

Just some "fruit" for through this morning:)
