The journey continues

My dear Jesus, thank You for all You do. I love You. Thank You for the journey. I am not the same person. Thank You for the gift of friends. Thank You for helping me overcome lies with truth. Thank You for opening the eyes of my heart.

My life is not my own.

I am here because of and for God.

I don't get to choose the scene of my own martyrdom.

My thoughts are not God's thoughts and my ways are not His ways.

Do not lean on your own understanding.

Don't let your well-being depend on your circumstances.

All your circumstances are in the hand of God, therefore never think it strange concerning the circumstances you are in.

Do not linger in the future, because anxieties sprout up like mushrooms when you wander there.

Remember the promise of God's continual presence.

He is able.

Jesus is Lord.

These are some of the things I lived out during my journey. I am leaving with my favorite song and my favorite Scripture.


Alleluia, alleluia for the Lord God Almighty reigns. Worthy is the Lamb, worthy is the Lamb.

"May He grant you out of the rich treasury of His glory to be strengthened and reinforced with mighty power in the inner man by the [Holy] Spirit [Himself indwelling your innermost being and personality].

May Christ through your faith [actually] dwell (settle down, abide, make His permanent home) in your hearts! May you be rooted deep in love and founded securely on love,
 
That you may have the power and be strong to apprehend and grasp with all the saints [God’s devoted people, the experience of that love] what is the breadth and length and height and depth [of it];
 
[That you may really come] to know [practically, through experience for yourselves] the love of Christ, which far surpasses mere knowledge [without experience]; that you may be filled [through all your being] unto all the fullness of God [may have the richest measure of the divine Presence, and become a body wholly filled and flooded with God Himself]!
 
Now to Him Who, by (in consequence of) the [action of His] power that is at work within us, is able to [carry out His purpose and] do superabundantly, far over and above all that we [dare] ask or think [infinitely beyond our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, hopes, or dreams]—
 
To Him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations forever and ever. Amen (so be it)."
~Ephesians 3:16-21 AMP

The journey continues...

Till Jesus comes back...we move forward.

Thank you for CZECHING IN!
