Wednesday

Today has been Summer warm!  Praise the Lord!

Do not be afraid or discouraged.  The Lord Himself goes before you;.He will be with you.  He will not fail you or abandon you.

                                              Deuteronomy 31:8

Praying for the sick and sending God's word to comfort and build your faith.

John worked outside all morning.  I worked in my craft corner.

The day is almost over!  I pray God sings you to sleep and whispers in your ear at dawn.

Love you!

My ink flows on love!

Journey

Today is April 7,2020

Christ has made his journey to the cross.
Today, I start a new journey in blogging.
The virus storm had been raging but my soul is at peace. I know the Master and Commander of life.
This may take me awhile to start blogging again.

Health Issues

Good Evening


I will be taking a blog break for awhile. John and I some health issues.
I never wanted to use this blog as a time to vent or complain. Pray for us. We are tired and need some extra rest.

I love you and appreciate all of you!



Love is still in the ink.

Respect

Greetings!

God speaks ! Sleep will come later. It is time to listen and write. I love when He gives me a word.
With word meanings changing and being attack, I decided on a little self study.
As I tried to sleep the word "respect" kept repeating in my thinking. The meaning is very generic and in my opinion has lost value. As I searched around, I came up with a new meaning that fit me. Respect is the value you have on something or someone. In a world turned upside down, seeking Jesus for answers is what I look for.

Growing up, my father put respect and fear in the same sentence. As I grew older somehow I put the word "earn" with it. If someone didn't repect you it was because you hadn't earned it. Today it is a lost word and I value it's return.

God has been changing me! Finding some new sources to read has helped. It has been a great gift. I cleaned out my email and invited new reads to enter. I now have healthy articles to feed my body and soul.
I serve a jealous God that wants all of me. My goal is to put more time and attention on Him.

Promise for today's is:

I am delighted to give you My kingdom. Luke 12:32


Praying you are well and happy. I appreciate yuou;following my posts.

Love is in my ink!

The Answer

Good Morning!

The answer is always Jesus!  He has been doing some great in my life.  Something's, I hadn't even noticed.  My eyes have been opened and my heart is willing to seek His kingdom.

Yesterday,  John had an appointment at the VA in San Antonio.  We rode the shuttle in with two other vets and  a new driver to us.  One vet had a 2 pm appointment so we had a wait.  A wonderful leisure lunch at the cafe and a time to count our blessings. The veterans without legs and the look of the lonely and lost put things into perspective for me immediately. I prayed as they filed past our table .   I called it a Parade of  Pain.

I longed to share my feelings but I was busy processing what God was doing in my life.  Love and compassion filled my entire day.   I  don't want to forget that time ever.

Today, I found a new mission.  Our little neighborhood is being over run with wild hogs.  I have learned so much about hogs, trappers and the the people around me.  I will keep you posted. I will soon be the neighborhood hero!  😊😊

God is so great and good to me.  He is healing my feet and I am so thankful.  Two of my foster kids need prayers.  One is looking for a house to rent in Austin and the other one needs some grace and mercy.  I know He will come through because I am faithful.

The promise for today is:

 There is no place you can go to escape My presence.  Psalms 139:10

My promise to Him.

Lord, be gracious to us; we long for you.  Isaiah 33:2


 May the Lord open the Window of blessing over you.  Thank you for being a faithful reader.

Love is in the ink!

Joy Comes in the Morning!

Good Morning!

Change is good!  I can't t believe at my age, I still look forward to change.  It is a Jesus thing.  I feel His hands on my life.   Molding and making me into His plan. He is all I need and ever wanted.

My little craft room has become a War Room!  I have been praying to get out of the way so Jesus can work.   He is doing a great job in watching over me and my family.  I am forever thankful.

Yesterday, my neighbors meet at the outside patio at our local grocery store.  It was great seeing everyone visiting and getting to know each other.  I love my neighborhood. 

Joey is stressed from all the new things he is learning and the responsibility of being a manager. He is striving to be perfect in a non perfect world.  The prayers of a mother avail much.  I am learning to listen and pray.

The verse for today is perfect,

The LORD is with me, I will not be afraid.  What can mere mortals do to me?  
Psalm 118:6.

Time to go.  Have a blessed day and let Jesus direct your day.

Love is in the ink.

I am still and waiting!

On the Lord!

Praying for the swelling to leave my feet, to lose 50 pounds and have more energy. My precious Lord has been speaking to me non stop.  Each word triggers emotions. As some of you know, I battle relationship issues.  This week, the Lord said, " My daughter doesn't need a mother,. She needs Jesus." I need more of Him too! God is always right.  It put joy and saddness in my heart at the same time. Death and life held in the balance.  A time to wait!

Writing has caused healings and a dream or two to surface.  I find my time alone a blessing! 

The promise today is :  Wait patiently for Me and I will hear your cry.  Psalm 40:1.

I serve a Mighty God and he is up to something huge.

Be blessed and have a wonderful day.

Love is in the ink!

Love, Mary Kay
