I love you THIS Much!

















Do you remember the adorable book ? I gave a copy to each of  my children. Every child wants the reassurance that their parent's love is everlasting and unconditional. In this short story, Guess How Much I Love You, a young rabbit named Little Nutbrown Hare is convinced he has found a way to measure the boundaries of love itself! Back and forth he and his Papa go....I love YOU more! No I love YOU more! With each of my own children I adapted my own rendition of the "I love you mores!" You could say they were unique unto each one.

                 Do you love me??

     
 I love you THIS much!

 Well my children are all grown up now, and have started lives of their own. I don't hear from them like I used to nor do I get the opportunity to "tell" them as much as I would like how much I love them. Although the love is still very much there. It hasn't waxed or waned. In fact it has grown even stronger over the years. I have more respect for my children than I did when they were just small like Little Nutbrown Hare. I have watched them grow. I have watched them tackle life and all that it has thrown at them. I am a very proud of how they have handled themselves. Still as proud as I am and as much as I love my little, not so little Nutbrown Hares I am their Mumsey. It is my God given right to love them, care about them and wonder how they are. So I guess what I am saying is, I miss them.

 This is where the Lord says,

"Do YOU love me?
 I love YOU."


I love you THIS Much




The Lord's love is unconditional.
Never ending.
His Grace is GREATER than any sin. Able to to forgive anything.

There isn't anything that the Lord doesn't already know about you. You can't surprise Him.

AND GET THIS

HE LOVES YOU
You see, in Romans 5:8,9 says  "But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him."

You get it don't you?

Back to the Big Nutbrown Hare analogy. As a Mother I have given my ALL for my children. I love every one of them with MY WHOLE heart. As far as I am concerned (and I am sure all the Mothers I personally know would agree with me on this one)

"You can mess with anything, but DO NOT mess a Ma'mas babies! You be barkin' up the wrong tree. Cause there ain't no wrath like a mother scorned!"

I mean seriously, even just typing that, I could feel the passion. 
It is the same with the Lord and HIS CHILDREN!
Even MORE SO!

The Lord does NOT like it when His children are taken advantage of. On the subject, the Lord’s love  for His children.The Lord could NOT stand to be separated from us! So much so that He gave His only begotten Son to be crucified, as a Holy sacrifice; as an atonement for OUR SIN. ONCE for ALL; that all who believe and receive would have life everlasting! (paraphrased John 3:16)

Jesus, gave HIS life. Suffered terribly. An innocent man.
The Heavenly Father allowed Him to come and give His life for us.

(back to Romans 5:9)
If then by demonstrating THIS. How much more will He, (God) not do for us now, through the blood of the Lamb (Jesus) during this season of Grace?

Come.
The Spirit of the Lord s
says come.

The Valley














There are many rare and beautiful treasures 
deep down in the valley, if you take the time to look for them. However, if your only goal while traveling through the valley is TO GET OUT then you WILL MISS OUT on such rare gifts of God!

I admit 
when I notice I am on a fast track down hill from a mountain top to the valley low, the first thing I tend to do is to try and see if I can locate an alternate route. I mean come on! Seriously now. Going ALL the way down the mountain to the valley and back up again isn't exactly the quickest route and I know I have wasted enough time already in my life messing around so when it comes to pulling out the ol' spiritual GPS and choosing between quickest way or least amount of mileage I am all for quickest way! Unfortunately for me, the Lord doesn't always see it MY WAY.

Or IS IT....."unfortunate"?

I have learned, after a great many trips down the same old mountain and into the same valley, that it is quite fortunate that I have upgraded to the spiritual GPS system (God Positioning System) and no longer have to depend on my out dated gps. My navigating skills are some-what lacking! I have this ever longing desire to go upward, even though the map is telling me otherwise. 🤦‍♀️ Go figure.

It has taken me quite a few years and a good up grade but I have finally made it to the valley and taken a full tour. It is quite beautiful down here!



Psalm 23

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:
He leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul: He leadeth me in the paths
of righteousness for His name’s sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the
shadow of death, I will fear no evil:
For Thou art with me; Thy rod and Thy staff
they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me
in the presence of mine enemies: Thou anointest my
head with oil; my cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house
Of the Lord for ever.

Changes of the Heart




 







It’s evening now, as the sun sets low.

The sky is a painting with bright colors aglow.

The midnight sky not far away,

Nighttime animals come out to play.


A whole new world beneath the sky,

As the moon and the stars rise up so high.

A world the same, yet not at all,

Just like the mountaintops in spring and in fall.


Both a beauty in themselves; the mountains in the fall;

Speak of change and solitude; spring, new life to all.

So mountaintops in seasons change a divine work of art.

We too have night and day to live, in changes of the heart.


The sun awakes as morning breaks. Mankind begins its day.

Survival of the fittest one is now the game we play.

Though games of survival we continue to play, and the life we lead goes on.

There is a change in man's heart, between the dusk and dawn.


For some it is as a mountain in fall,

A way of escape from it all;

For others it is as a mountain in spring;

A breath of life for their weary being.


~Selah~


Before too long, it's no longer dawn, but evening has arrived.

Tired and yet thankful ones are happy to have survived.

No matter what the case may be, there's beauty to be found;

If we’ll only take the time to see, how God’s glory in nature abounds.


If the Lord has led you into the valley,

Know,  HE is with you.

Know, it is not a punishment.

Know, everything will be okay.

REST, because SOON you will need strength to start your climb back up the mountain!


Grace, love 💗 peace 🕊️and joy 🥰 in Jesus!

Because

I posted this poem before. However I felt as though I needed to post this again. 
These words are so powerful.

We live in day and age where it seems as though such a great many people, young and old; rich and poor, male and female alike, all seem to struggle with believing in themselves.

These are perilous days we live in. No doubt life can be overwhelming at times.

Just in my circle of friends I would say 50% of them are experiencing serious challenges in their life..
Facing deaths in families, terminal illnesses, job loss, divorce and more.

It can be hard to have faith sometimes. To believe we will actually make it.
It's good to know that someone has faith in us.






Because You Believe in Me

I am here.
You are here in me.
Because of this I know I can be;
all that you say you want me to be.
I’ve tried so many times.
I’ve climbed this mountain before.
I’ve done all that you’ve asked me to do.
I’ve lived through the things you’ve brought me through.
Here I sit, still;
waiting on you.
To make me all that you said I should be.
I don’t see how but I know that you will, because you believe in me.
You’ve always believed in me; the only one who ever believed in me.
With you all things are possible.
With you, before I see it, it’s done.
With you, before I’ve begun to fight, the battle is already won.
You are the Almighty and you are my God.
You are the Lord of Lords and you are my God.
You are the Creator of the world and you are my God.
You are Alpha and Omega; the beginning and the end and you are my God.
You are Jesus, Savior of the world; and you are my God.
Because you are the Omnipotent and Supreme One; what you say shall be done.
What you have said in fact is already done. Though my eyes do not see it yet, it is so.
I am already become what I do not even know.
Because you believe in me.
You believe in me.
You’ve always believed in me.
When there was nothing in me worth believing in;
still proudly you remained my friend.
Always there for me; looking out for me.
Because you are who you are; because you said it should be so;
I shall become that which I do not even know.
According to your good purpose I will act and grow.
I will become all that you have designed for me to become.
For you are God.
For you are my God.
I have trusted in you and you love me.
You have spoken, so it shall be. You have begun your good work in me.
You believe in me. You have already given your best for me.
Because you believe in me so much; now I believe in me.
Come, Finish your work in me.

Come...He's Calling You


Come






Come, walk by my side.
Come, there's no need to hide.
I've heard your cries for happiness.
I've seen you're search for peace of mind.



I've got something for you.
I can see you through.
Your road is rugged and treacherous.
Your heart needing to be renewed.



Come, walk by my side.
Come, there's no need to hide.
I see your heart. No you can't fool me.
I long to free you from your captivity.



I love you - with all of me.
Eternal love - unconditionally.
With my life I paid the price.
In anguish I cried your cries.



How can I make you see?
It's MY love that holds the key - to freedom from your misery?
Call to me....won't call to me......call to me.



Come, walk by my side.
Come, there's no need to hide.
I'm here to love you, to be your friend.
To walk by your side 'till the very end.



So, come......walk by my side.....I love you.....Jesus












Footprints in the Sand

One night I had a dream
I was walking along the beach with my Lord.
Across the sky flashed scenes from my life.
For each scene I noticed two sets
of footprints in the sand,
one belonging to me
and the other to my Lord.
When the last scene of my life shot before me
I looked back at the footprints in the sand.
There was only on set of footprints.
I realized that this was at the lowest
and saddest times in my life.
This always bothered me
and I questioned the Lord
about my dilemma.
"Lord, you told me when I decided to follow You,
You would walk and talk with me all the way.
But I'm aware that during the most troublesome 
times of my life there is only one set of footprints.
I don't understand why, when I needed You most, 
you leave me."
He whispered,  "My precious, precious child,
I love you and will never leave you
never, ever during your times of trial and testings.
When you saw only one set of footprints
It was then that I carried you."

Margaret Fishback Powers





Lord, I love you. More than I could ever express I love you. You show me in ways I don't understand how much you care for me. Unconditionally....you love me. You don't mock me. You don't judge me. You don't turn me away in anger. You love me. When everyone else has no time for me. YOU LOVE ME. YOU make TIME for me. YOU actually ENJOY me! You laugh at my silly jokes and warm my soul with your with your sweet Holy Spirit! 

When I think I can't take another minute! - - - YOU - YOU - swoop down from your throne and PICK ME RIGHT UP IN YOUR ARMS and LET ME KNOW ------You are still here by my side!!!! Just like you promised you would be! :)
You are NOT like everyone else.....YOU keep your promises......every one of them....and you have written them down for me to have; to be able to remind myself of them; to encourage myself daily! Oh THANK YOU!!!! 
I love you!!!! I love you....I love you!

You are my rock -Your word is true!
Your promises are true and stand forever!
You have told me something and I believe it with JOY! I hold it in my heart!
I will see it come about for you have spoken it to me!n You are NOT a man that you should lie!


You alone I will extol! You alone will I praise and sing a song of love to!
With my voice I will lift up thanksgiving to you and you alone!
For all that you have done for me!

Though the enemy encamps about my house;
I will not fear for you watch over me!
To keep me safe and all that you have given me!
God is for me; who can be against me?

Away from me you evil oppressors!
There is no room in my life for you!
I am His alone; the one who bought me with his life!
The lover of my soul; away all else I say; away!


Swoop down at his command; hosts of heaven.
Charge the oppressor! Defeat the enemy!
Secure the home of his beloved hand-maiden!
Let the Glory of the Lord come down!


Let the divine will of the Lord of Glory have it's way!
Halleluia! Amen! Halleluia! Amen!!!
I love you my Master and my friend; my Lord and my God!
With my life I will praise you!
