1 Peter 4:12-13

I'm wondering what Peter meant by 1 Peter 4:12-13

"Dear friends, do not be surprised at the painful trial you are suffering, as though something strange were happening to you. But rejoice that you participate in the sufferings of Christ, so that you may be overjoyed when his glory is revealed".

A Mother’s Day Wish From Heaven


I found this poem on SS blog that one of the ladies posted. I just wanted to share this and pictures of Jeremiah and Felicia's (the two babies I miscarried) Garden for you.






























Dear Mr. Hallmark,
I am writing to you from heaven, and though it must appear
A rather strange idea, I see everything from here.
I just popped in to visit, your stores to find a card
A card of love for my mother, as this day for her is hard.

There must be some mistake I thought, every card you could imagine
Except I could not find a card, from a child who lives in heaven.
She is still a mother too, no matter where I reside
I had to leave, she understands, but oh the tears she’s cried.

I thought that if I wrote you, that you would come to know
that though I live in heaven now, I still love my mother so.
She talks with me, and dreams with me; we still share laughter too,
Memories our way of speaking now, would you see what you could do?

My mother carries me in her heart, her tears she hides from sight.
She writes poems to honor me, sometimes far into the night
She plants flowers in my garden, there my living memory dwells
She writes to other grieving parents, trying to ease their pain as well.

So you see Mr. Hallmark, though I no longer live on earth
I must find a way, to remind her of her wondrous worth
She needs to be honored, and remembered too
Just as the children of earth will do.

Thank you Mr. Hallmark, I know you’ll do your best
I have done all I can do; to you I’ll leave the rest.
Find a way to tell her, how much she means to me
Until I can do it for myself, when she joins me in eternity.

Lean not on your own understanding

Well, I did m/c last saturday. I'm trying to take it a day at a time. It is still rough, but I'm slowing seeing it as it was God's will. I don't totally understand it, but I'm slowly learning to accepted it. I know that in HIS time, he will give me a child. I guess until then, I must wait. Here is a verse that has spoke to me.

Proverbs 3:5-6
5
Trust in the LORD with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding; 6 in all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make your paths straight.

God's Comfort in a trail time: Praise

Today God really spoke to me about my trail that I'm currently dealing with. I have been battling a spiritual battle for awhile with this posses woman (quite literally). She is a woman who does not have a spirit of God in her and you can clearly see it. She comes across with very sly words, but then she rips you apart once she gets what she came for (Rev 2:19-23). I tried to reach out to her, but it seems to make things worse. She constantly attacks me and tries to turn my family against me. God has reviled to me that he has given her time to repent and chose to follow him, but she chose not too (Rev 2:21).
I praise God that though this trail. He can be praise. I praise that God is faithful, he will not let me be tempted more then what I can bare and that he has ALWAYS give me an escape route (1 Cor 10:13). I also praise God that he is always watching. He won't let things get too deep for me (Isaiah 43:1-3) and that I am precious in his sight. He LOVES me. He won't let me drown. Praise God! He is SOOO GOOD!



Prov 5:21; Prov 15:3
Eyes of the Lord are unescapeable.
Eyes of the Lord are moving towards what will help us grow.
Eyes of the Lord are moving towards truth
Eyes of the Lord are Searching for ppl to bless
Eyes of the Lord Provides us with grace when he observe a righteous person
