My Glorious Weekend Away

When the others push me away you draw me close.
When the others knock me down you pick me up.
When I am dragged under by the multitudes of things you reach down and with your mighty omnipotent mighty right hand pull me out of the mess.
You love me so; Oh Lord, you really must love me so.
Each day passes by and you show me more grace;
amazing grace.
I watch the obstacles of nature; try to learn from the mistakes and traps mother nature sets for the wilds animals; and still I fall flat on my face like blundering fool! There you are in flat second ready and willing to pick me and help me to my feet! You are the amazing, wonderful God!
How can so very many people say, “There is no God.” There is such truth in the proverb that says, “A fool is a man that says in his heart there is no God.” For you show yourself in ALL things every day! It takes a fool NOT to see YOU in SOMEthing!
Thank you my God for life! For being my God! Thank you for choosing ME to reveal such truths to! For surely you could have chosen ANYone and you chose ME…….Thank you, Thank you, THANK YOU!!!!  Forever Thank you!

May my heart be a heart of thanksgiving….may my heart be a heart of love.
May I always seek to offer everything I have possession of BACK to you...as it came first from you... my gracious, Holy..God.

I have just spent thee most Glorious time away this past weekend!

I went away for just three short days to visit two very dear friends a few hundred miles away. However it proved to be quite the "divine appointment" for me! From the moment I got in my car Holy Spirit began to speak to me and when I got to the church Sunday morning confirmation continued through the Pastor's teaching....and YET again later Sunday evening as my friend and I served at a home for women in crisis, I had THEE most glorious time! I met three of the most wonderful women and had the privilege of serving them and praying with them and sharing "my" story with them. The Lord spoke very clearly to me that evening as well! I will always remember you precious beautiful ladies!


I came away from the weekend with MUCH direction and feeling as though I had been away for at least a week! A very super natural experience for sure. One which I have still yet to fully take in.





"Oh Lord you are so gracious and wonderful and always faithful. Once again You have heard my cry and spoken to me. You know that even if I had not heard from You so clearly regarding this issue I would feel the same way. You are all there is for me. My hearts cry is Your hearts cry. My prayer is there will be less of me and more of You! Until I can not feel the wind on my face unless You are feeling it on yours; that every breath I breath would say “I love you”….that every word I speak would Glorify YOU my God and edify all man kind to an  end of drawing them closer to your divine purpose for their life...without prejudice Lord. Having your eyes as my own to see everyone as YOU do, not as I would be inclined to see them. Oh Lord that even the thought and intent of my heart would please you my Holy Father  and make room for your anointing upon me to move me into Your perfect will and work so that every step I take would draw me closer and closer to being completely conformed to the image of Your Son Yehsua…..so when I am living my life in the world people will be drawn to me as they were drawn to your  son Yeshua; so when I offer a hug, a word a prayer at the gas station, at the coffee shop, at work, where EVER I am…..lives are changed, transformed, made whole…souls are reunited with their creator!!!! To the JOY of God our Father, their Father and the Sacrifice – the GREATEST Sacrifice of ALL….the Lamb of God slain for the entire world!!!!!! 
OH dear Lord, God!!!! Change me…..Have Mercy….come and have YOUR way….deliver me from my ways…from the worlds ways….from the religious order of the days ways….. I give myself; I abandon myself, totally, completely, singly, to you O’ Lord God of Abraham."
 


There is no question in my mind or heart that I will follow the direction of my Lord and that He has taken me to a higher level in my walk with Him and in the ministry that He would call me to do for and in Him. Although in my flesh, I am tempted to feel totally incapable to accomplish what the Lord has set before me; and truthfully I am. However, I know that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me...(Phil 4:13)…..and when I cast down my flesh, bring it into submission to my Spirit, which according to the Word of God…is seated in the heavenly realm with Christ Jesus, (Eph 2:6 “And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus,” high above all principalities and authorities; Eph 4:10 “He who descended is also the One who ascended far above all the heavens, that He might fill all things.) I find I have the ability to overcome that which tries so hard to overcome me and keep from my God ordained purpose in life.
I am continuing, as Paul says in his letter to the Corinthians, to die daily. (1 Corinthians 15:31)  Truthfully learning what Paul meant when he wrote in Galatians 2:20 ~ “I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.” It is a life long lesson as Paul again points out in his letter to the Philippians. (Phil 3:13, 14 ~“Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 14I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.”)
It is truly both an honor and a blessing to learn these things in this first life; also a great responsibility and much of the time persecution accompanies these revelations and more often than not as seen through out Biblical history, a life of human loneliness accompanies those that embrace this honorable call. However, God has never left a human lonely heart go without replenishment. There is great reward for those who give up, sacrifice and walk away from the pleasures of this world, family, friends, and or any privileges that other family members of the body of Christ may enjoy at the hand of God.
Although, I am not looking at such rewards….I am only looking at the face, the beautiful face of my Lord.  
In this alone do I find peace and strength. 


I love you!!! Amy Colleen
