There is a Time for Every Season Under Heaven. Ecclesiastes 3:1

As the years have gathered my days, I've grown. I have come to a point in my life where I truly enjoy God! I let Him love me and I love Him back! I let Him comfort me and I then go and comfort others. I don't blame God any more but, I see Him in everything! The journey IS life, we will never arrive as long as we walk on this earth so I've learned to see each day, each moment as a chapter in my life's journal whether it be a great day or a dark season, God is in it with me.

I'm also aware that the enemy is always prowling about with one mission in mind, to rob me of my joy and to get me to doubt God. There are times when I lend ear to the whispered lies and I become ensnared. Not for the long lengths of time as when I was younger and thought God was responsible for pain and suffering. I've grown in the grace and knowledge of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and I find myself falling much less and for shorter periods of time. That's because I read God's Word each day and I have a personal relationship with Him!

I have struggled with worthlessness because of the things that happened to me in my life. Growing and healing is a process and He is teaching me about many things that I look forward to sharing! This blog is a place for my thoughts to find their voice! I hope you enjoy visiting here just as if you were going to a friends house.

Jesusdeevah is a name I chose because it reminds me that I am set apart, special, precious and treasured by my Father in Heaven! So much that He sent His only beloved Son, Jesus, to suffer and die for me! Then, on the third day He rose from the grave and conquered sin and death so that I could be with Him forever! The lie is that I'm worthless, the truth is that I am worth dying for!

John 3:16,17... For God so loved the world that He gave His only Son so that whosoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life! God did not send His Son into the world to condemn it but to save it!

The Two Shall Meet

A lovely friend of mine e-mailed me today with a beautiful quote that put the final stitch in my quilted heart :) She praised and encouraged me for doing my blog and this is the quote..."Our calling is where our deep gladness meets the world's deep needs".

I have finally found my niche' in life! I feel like I'm exactly where God wants me right now! It's so weird that I'm saying that because I am in the middle of one of the worse times! But, God has lifted the veil that kept me from seeing the glistening pools and palm trees in my desert! My mind feels like it's swimming in the clear Bahama waters! Can I say that all the pain was worth it? Yes, because I think of this life as a pregnancy and all the pain will give birth to a precious gift from God  if we let Him use that pain. Just as a clay pot or a porcelain dish has to be fired in a kiln at high temperatures to bring out its beauty, so is the same for our hearts.

I find it so profound that what I love to do the most is to write, yet without all my trials I would have nothing to write about or to share concerning the deep needs of the world. Above my desk, on a small piece of paper it reads, "Grace to write", and now next to it is the quote my friend sent to me today :)
