Jeremiah 29:11 New International Version (NIV)
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
MY YES TO GOD ~
LIVING BY FAITH
Hebrews 11:5-6 New International Version (NIV)
5 By faith Enoch was taken from this life, so that he did not experience death: “He could not be found, because God had taken him away.” For before he was taken, he was commended as one who pleased God. 6 And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him.
One day, I believed that Jesus was real and I felt something I never felt before. It was a peace within my heart, but it was also faith. I just know somethings will happen and I have learned to trust the Lord in all things. At our women's service today, I have said yes to God and I believe he will give me words to say. A story that is unwritten and freedom in the Lord. Nobody knows someone totally but God does. Our yes to God not only affects us but others.
Isaiah 61:1-3 New International Version (NIV)
The Year of the Lord’s FavorThe Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me,
because the Lord has anointed me
to proclaim good news to the poor.
He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
to proclaim freedom for the captives
and release from darkness for the prisoners,
2 to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor
and the day of vengeance of our God,
to comfort all who mourn,
3 and provide for those who grieve in Zion--
to bestow on them a crown of beauty
instead of ashes,
the oil of joy
instead of mourning,
and a garment of praise
instead of a spirit of despair.
They will be called oaks of righteousness,
a planting of the Lord
for the display of his splendor.
MY YES TO GOD ~
I pray daily for the readers of my blog, your family and friends. I know that God has purpose in everyday for us. Living in the freedom of God is such a blessing. Knowing who you are and that your life makes such a difference. I see so many amazing people who don't see themselves amazing. If they could only look through the eyes of God and see their created made them. A gift of God is life, so lets live it fully each day. Sharing kindness, hope and smiles along the way, plus our story. Our story is one only we know and can bring hope to someone else.
Purpose this a good day!
