Who am I...

-
"But who am I to appear before Pharoah?" Moses asked. "How can you expect me to lead the Israelites out of Egypt?" Exodus 3:11
"When Moses heard this, he hid his face in his hands because he was afraid to look at God. Exodus 3:6
"But who am I..." -Exodus 3:11
So often, when asked this exact question, who am I, we fill in the blanks even before God can whisper the truth...inadequate, unworthy, lost, not good enough or smart enough, selfish, a mess. The lies that the enemy fills us with. We begin to believe that this is who we are.
Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine. -Isaiah 43:1
I will be with you. And this will serve proof. Exodus 3:12
Alone, before Christ, we were unworthy, selfish, no good, and a complete mess. But thank you Jesus! We are not alone! We have the I AM, the one who always is, with us! We have been made New by the Maker, Redeemer, Savior, and King!
He is with us! And, that will serve as proof! We are children of the King! He has created us for a moment such as this! So, rise, beautiful children! Rise! For he has plans for you in this day! Rise! Don't worry about tomorrow, today, or your inability! Fix your eyes upon the PERFECTER!
Empty you of you, so that you may be filled with the Holy Spirit! Set aside your to do list, your agenda, and follow the steps that he has planned for you!
Open the eyes of our hearts Lord! For we want to see you, know you, follow you, speak your words, truth and love in this day!
Today, I again surrender my everything for your perfect anything!
I am here father! USE ME!
In Jesus Name!


Who am I...
redeemed, made new, a daughter of the king!

Rejoice

For You, O LORD, have made me glad by what You have done, I will sing for joy at the works of Your hands. -Psalm 92:4 aaaaahhhh!!!  Rejoice!  Rejoice!  Rejoice!!   It has been 9 months since I have last blogged.  Wow!  I seriously feel like I have been hibernating for the last 9 months!  However, I am awake!  In the last nine months, my youngest son graduated from high school, and all three of my boys have moved away...out of state!  My oldest moved all the way to Oklahoma, teaching adorable kindergarteners with his unending passion, energy, and light.  My two youngest decided to join the military to serve and protect our country and our freedom! I am a proud Marine Mom and a proud Air Mom!  And, in June and July, as my sons each left the nest, I somehow found myself frozen, in a hibernation state....I found myself zombie-ing through each day (with my incredible husband, who was also in this crazy zombie state right alongside me).  Until now, I look, and we are in December.  I

Speed bump? No problem! (1 Samuel 17)

  You come to me with sword, spear and javelin, but I come to you in the name of the Lord Almighty. -1 Samuel 17:45 I wake up this morning with the greatest memory in my head. A memory including speed bumps. A few friends and I, away for a God filled weekend, found ourselves in a parking lot, waiting. Giggling and excited for the weekend. Excited to be together, and excited to spend the weekend with the Lord Almighty, we waited in that parking lot, driving, we circled that parking lot. The parking lot had speed bumps to slow or even stop cars. As we cruised that parking lot, we found ourselves flying over those speed bumps over and over, shouting silly things as we laughed for joy, shouting again! AGAIN!  Normally, I hate speed bumps. They slow me down, shake me up, as I stumble over them. We flew over those speed bumps! Our waiting, for that long time seemed like minutes. Our waiting was so much fun! We flew over those speed bumps time and time again with joy and triumph!
