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!

Refining

Trials are crucibles where God forges our character to reflect his. He is in the fire with us. He never leaves us or forsakes us (Deuteronomy 31:8). When we emerge, the strongholds will have burned off and we will find that each time we pass through the fire our freedom in Christ grows exponentially. 

Ref: Daniel 3, Malachi 3:2, Zechariah 13:9, 1 Peter 1:7

Balancing Prayer

Lord of all creation, balance me today. Balance my thoughts, my desires, my cravings. Balance my relationships and the choices that I make in every aspect of my life. Balance my responses, my reactions, my interactions. Lord, balance my heart today from where all things flow. Balance my mind, my body, and my soul. You, oh Lord, who holds the endless universe in perfect balance, the Lord who can suspend planets in mid air and who tells the sea where to stop, balance me today. Make my will your will, my desires your desires, remind me all day through your Holy Spirit that anything that comes into my life has to come through you first. Everything is a lesson to grow from. Let me not expect life to be easy but to know that it will be interesting, exciting, sometimes puzzling and even painful. Remind me that everything is a lesson to grow from. Open my eyes that most of the circumstances I pray for you to remove are places that you want me to be. Places that you want to change me in. Life is a journey of joys and sorrows but you walk with me every step of the way. Keep me mindful that every bad thing has goodness to be found in it if we will only look for you in it. Our purpose here is not to be comfortable but to be comforting, not to be stuffed with delicacies but to be content and share with others. Lord balance me today in every way. Encourage me to release the things I covet and to desire above all that you alone fill my wanting hands, heart and body. Make my day a prayer to you so I can connect to you every moment. Let not my pride think that I can do anything apart from you. Give me a constant hunger to be satisfied and filled only by you. Be my full portion. Above all, reveal and cement in my heart your deep and committed love that you have for me. Let me thirst for your Word and be quenched by it. Let no one or nothing rob me of my peace. Give me wisdom generously to stand in hope of all that you promise. You are My Redeemer, My Savior and the lover of my soul. Whatever shape each person's emptiness is fill it perfectly with all that you are. Whenever someone finds themself alone, may your presence comfort them. And Lord show the lost that you are the way. May your truth and light guide us today and give us hope. Make my desire be to glorify you in all that I do. Amen
