Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be the glory

Dumb and Dumber

Oh how I love my drives to work....God and I are able to do a lot of talking, thinking, and even laughing.

On my way to work I pass numerous gas stations and I noticed that gas prices jumped up 20 cents OUCH!! :o Last night my friend mentioned how she'll just walk to work and ride her bike. So that got me thinking about what I would do to get to work since I drive 21 miles to work and 21 miles from work every day (yes it hurts the bank account since my SUV has a 20+ gallon tank but I picked both my job and handsome SUV...and I would not change it). My first thought was my carpool buddy and I riding in a Smart "death mobile" car that is Hulk green. (not such a bad thing to picture and it would save both of us a ton of money). Second was riding on a moped that could fit both of us...then I started to laugh because it made me think of "Dumb and Dumber". How Harry and Llyod are riding their old moped...so if you can picture/remember that just pretend that it is two ladies [much pretty and skinnier than Harry and Llyod]...if you know us two I am sure you are busting up laughing at the moment.

Any who, I do thank my Heavenly Father for where He has placed me because I love those I work with and I feel a part of this family. THANK YOU ABBA!!!

Spirit of...

Called Out

Luke 9:23 (New Living Translation)

"Then he said to the crowd, “If any of you wants to be my follower, you must turn from your selfish ways, take up your cross daily, and follow me."


Galatians 5:24-26 (NLT)

"24 Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there. 25 Since we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit’s leading in every part of our lives. 26 Let us not become conceited, or provoke one another, or be jealous of one another."


HELP ME FATHER TO BE MORE LIKE YOU!!

Galatians 5:22-23 (NLT)

"22 But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things!"

Feel




Jesus, please come
please come today
hear me
heal me
be near me I pray

I have fallen so far
flat on my face
I'm in need of your grace today
I stumble and fall
but in spite of it all
your love always stays the same

Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Jesus, please come
please come today
break me
mold me
use me I pray


but don't give up on me now
I'm so close to you now
I'm in need of your grace today
wipe the dirt off my face
hold me in your embrace
your love always saves the day
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

I have fallen so far
flat on my face
I'm in need of your grace today
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

Sing Hallelujah
Sing Hallelujah
Sing Hallelujah amen

On my knees here I fall
in spite of it all

Hallelujah
And though it seems hard
I'm still trusting you Lord
Hallelujah
Hallelujah

(Hallelujah--Heather Williams)


On my drive to work the other morning, this song came on the radio and parts of it seemed to stick because I feel like I have fallen flat on my face and now am in need of His grace.

Power, Love, and Self-Discipline

2 Timothy 1:7 (Amplified Bible)
"For God did not give us a spirit of timidity (of cowardice, of craven and cringing and fawning fear), but [He has given us a spirit] of power and of love and of calm and well-balanced mind and discipline and self-control."

Morning Radio

"Little acts of love such as holding hands, writing a little note, kissing every day (for at least 10 seconds) and putting your husband's or wife's picture up at work can make you smarter, less stressed, and more motivated." Dr. Tim

Hmmm...??

I heard this one the radio in the morning because the lovely National Single Awareness Day...I mean Valentine's Day is right around the corner.

One Thing Remains



Higher than the mountains that i face
Stronger than the power of the grave
constant in the trial and the change

One thing remains

Your love never fails
It never gives up
It never runs out on me


Because on and on and on and on it goes
It overwhelms and satisfies my soul
And I'll never, ever, have to be afraid

One thing remains

In death
In life
I'm confident and covered by the Power of Your great love

My dept is paid
There's nothing that can separate
My heart from Your great love

One Thing Remains-Jesus Culture
