David was chosen. The youngest, the smallest, the runt. His seven older brothers visually fit the bill, but God does not look at outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart. (v. 7)
And you my friend are chosen! Rise up! You are created for this day! God has the perfect plans for you! Rise up!

Rise up! Rise up to the calling that he has placed on your heart and life! Rise up! Sing praises and worship the Lord in this day! Rise up! See his light shine like the noonday sun! Rise up With hands lifted high praising He who is worthy of ALL! Rise up! Shout his name and share His word with all around you! Praise Him, brothers sisters/sons and daughters of the King! Rise up! For he has plans for us in this day!
Whom shall you use Father? Use us! Send us!
In Jesus name I shout, worship, sing, and praise!

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!

Speed bump? No problem! (1 Samuel 17)

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!
