My heart

HE KNOWS MY HEART AND LOVES ME JUST THE WAY I AM.
Change Me Into Your Likeness, Dear Lord.

Psalm 139:1-4 O Lord, You have searched me and You know me. You know when I rise. You perceive my thoughts from afar. You discern my going out and my lying down. You are familiar with all my ways. Before a word is on my tongue, you know it completely.

OH BROTHER! A WORD ON MY TONGUE?
I’ve asked forgiveness for that one flaw, from my dearest friends, a few times. Thank the Good Lord, He does love me despite my shortcomings.
I come from a strong, German background where everyone speaks his/her peace.
Fortunately, one learns from her mistakes….
And I HAVE.
I have been mentoring a high school junior who is almost my clone. Mom reached out to me for help, due the fact that Emmie (fake name) was losing friends, because of her straight-forwardness, dealing with immature, high school drama.
We had a mentoring day. I gave her a copy of Jesus Calling: by Sarah Young. If you’ve never read this daily devotional, it’s a must have. It so helped to transform my thinking and emotional well-being. It’s Jesus, directly speaking to you, then followed up by scriptures. The second book is entitled, Always Jesus.
HEAVENLY FATHER….here is a prayer for myself and those who are so much like me:
Father, I know you have given me spiritual wisdom
……Humility comes before wisdom. Think before you react.
Father, I want to fix things.
…….I AM is the FIXER, not you.
Father, You created me to lead.
……PRIDE COMETH BEFORE THE FALL…YOU NEED to remember what your Granny taught you. Remember to always place in print,”It has nothing to do with Sue. It has everything to do with WHO LIVES WITHIN HER.”Even though you forget at times, I am here to forgive.
Father, I want the truth to be known.
…I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE… it is up to me to judge them, not you. When you judge and react, your sin becomes greater than theirs.
JESUS, I SURRENDER MY LIFE TO YOU.TAKE CARE OF EVERYTHING. Amen.

GOD YOU ARE SO FUNNY: Here is the scripture that just popped up on my phone.
2 Corinthians 5:21 For He hath made Him to be sin for us; that we may be made the righteousness of God in Him.

BUT GRACE……BUT GRACE….I don’t deserve it, but I claim it through Jesus Christ, my Savior.
