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!

Colossians 3:15

"Let the Peace of Christ rule in your hearts... " Colossians 3:15 

The key word here is " let". In my daily devotional today it said, "The command is to “let the peace of Christ rule.” Another way to say that is to surrender, yield to the direction of the peace of Christ. So much of our anxiety is because we are grasping for control rather than learning to surrender." Isn't it amazing how one little word can create a paradigm shift so profound that your viewpoint on a subject goes from impotent to potent! 

"Let", infers that the peace is already there in Christ. It's just making that decision to stop, relax our shoulders, unclench our teeth, breathe and accept the gift of peace that is readily available for us. So many of us think that peace is like a carrot dangling from a stick and if we're good enough we will get some. That's not God's character at all. I believe that every gift from God can be received with Grace if we were to deal with our preconceived distorted images of him first. Then, the walls come down and we, like children, grasp at what we already know he wants us to have. We have so many walls built up because we don't believe that he could love us as much as he does. That's why he calls us to be innocent like little children. (Matthew 18:3).

Today, let's keep prayers poised and ready to offer up to him repeatedly. Lord God, let your peace flow into me right now. Lord God, let your wisdom flood my mind right now. Lord God, let your unconditional love replace my shame and guilt. Lord God, let your faith and joy overcome my feelings of doubt or depression. Lord God, let your hope reign in my mind and heart as it suffocates any discouragement. Lord God, Let.....

Our God doesn't just ask us to bow our heads in prayer but he also asks us to reach our hands out and up like little children. It's okay to reach up and ask him to pick you up and hold you for a bit. It's okay to open up your hands to him and tell him that you need wisdom for a decision. It's okay to humbly and innocently with palms up ask him to let his peace flow into your troubling circumstances. His heart longs for us to want to be with him and receive his gifts. So let him.

James1:5 "who gives freely to all without finding fault"
