FALL ON THE FARM: there is no greater time of year than harvest. The combines are rolling, the winter wheat is being sown, and the grain bins are full to capacity. It’s such a blessing to see all of the business surrounding the farm. Tractors, gravity wagons, and grain semi-trucks are pounding the pavement as they haul their treasures to the grain elevator.
I’ve had to close the windows on The Big, Country Porch; soon I’ll have to go upstairs to my War Room . However, My ABBA, goes with me, no matter where I write.
I am Your Precious Daughter. You have given me numerous gifts and abilities. However, life has a way of trashing my confidence and saying,”Yeah right! You think you can do that?”
OH! Satan tried. As our milking parlor was being built in 1973, two wise guys from the community stuck their noses
in: “LOL Snark! You’ll be gone within 6 months.”
Snark back to you, Bozo! My man milked cows for 43 years, and we now own 300 acres outright. Neither doubt my husband’s work ethic, nor mine. I went back to school once the 3 boys were in school, got my M.Ed. And taught for a total of 30 years elementary, and 7 of Christian, Private preschool.
As your word tells me, “I can do all things through Christ who gives me the strength.” One has to set her mind upon Your Word, soak in the truths, and “Believe and Breathe!”
As was my case, coming out of the darkness of depression 43 years ago, there were not many medical applications, with which to help a patient.
HOWEVER, I HAD YOU! You showed me how to tap into my abilities! You watered and fertilized my gifts with Your
Holy Word, and the many directions you whispered to me in secret.
You are The One who whispered in my ear and told me to author. Only out of obedience, do I write. You nursed my gifts and brought it to fruition…for Your Glory.
Father I couldn’t do any of this, if it weren’t for The Holy Spirit guiding me.
I am your new creation. Father, open the mind and heart of the lovely woman that reads this. She is your treasure. Help her to open her treasure chest of gifts and dig deeply into her persona.
Bring people into her life that will guide her to a new career, free her from domestic violence, help a single mom raise her children, and recreate her life through Christ.
I praise You, Father, for the greatest ability that you ever gave to me; to seek salvation through a relationship with Your Son, Jesus Christ.
Never doubt, that you can become educated to pursue new abilities. Hold God’s hand. He will take you through the
process, step by step.
May I bless the lives of all of those, with whom I come in contact this day, through the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
Thank You, Abba. Hold me, love me, as I lean on You.
Eph. 3:20-21 Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us; to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever.
Amen.
Isaiah 40:30-31 Even youths shall faint and be weary and the young men shall literally fall; but those who wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall not faint.
Psalm 62:8 Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our strength
