Good Morning, ABBA, Father,

Fall is on it’s way, and summer is coming to an end. I have even gotten out some Autumn Decor. As my Mom and Granny before me, I love decorating for the holidays.

We all loved to entertain, decorate, and use a plethora of color within our environment. It was not overload, but very tastefully done.

I was their precious girl. Granny used to say,”If you are so precious to your mom and I, how much more does God love you?”

Lord, as the Daughter of the King, help me to embrace whatever comes my way today. Truly, there is only one way to achieve this within a broken world.

Proverbs 4:20-23 states it perfectly. My son, pay attention to what I say; listen closely to my words. Do not let them out of your sight, keep them in your heart; for they are life to those who find them and health to a man’s body.

What a gift! What a miracle! The Word of God is alive. It brings emotional and physical health.

Coming out of the darkness of depression 45 years ago, your Word transformed my thoughts and emotions. Your “SonLight,” came and literally lit up my mind, emotions, and personality. I realized that “The Becomer” within me was rising up to recreate my life. I realized that, “I was your
precious daughter.”

As a Daughter of the King, that places me within your inner circle. I know, Father that you are there to carry me through many trials and hardships. However, the blessings and wisdom that come from being your child, far outweigh the bitterness that life avails.

I know of a traumatic circumstance that happened to a very devout Christian. She, her second daughter, and granddaughter, were driving and running errands. The oldest daughter had just passed from cancer. They were finishing up last minute details for the funeral. A truck slammed them, killed the second daughter, and placed the mother and grandchild in the hospital.

BIG QUESTION? WHY GOD? HOW GOD? HOW DO I GO ON?

All I can tell you is that the rest of the family, is living one day at a time…in the Presence of God. They live each day saying,”I can do all things through Christ who give me the strength.”

Once you are a child of God….HE WILL CARRY YOU. As I ready myself or work and family activities, I know
that You will walk with me and strengthen each step I take.

Throughout 12 years of Christian Education, I was taught very little about having a personal relationship with Christ. My denomination was all based on rules.

Then at 31 years of age, the Bible…your Living Word, was opened unto me. Little by little I grew in relationship with You. Now, I claim that I am your Precious daughter.

Thank You, Father, for gathering me unto yourself.

MY CHILD: As a Precious Child, you have work to do, and along with that title comes responsibility. You are a disciple of the Kingdom of Heaven. As I told the prophet Jeremiah;”Do not say,’I am only a child.’You must go to everyone I send you to and say whatever I command you. Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you and will rescue you. Today, you can make a huge difference in the lives of others, simply by being a role model of a spirit-filled Christian. Others will view your persona, and “Want what you have.” There will always be opportunities to witness. I love you.
Your,
ABBA, Father

Zeph. 3:17 The Lord your God is with you, He is mighty to save..He will take great delight in you. He will quiet you with his love. He will rejoice over you with singing.

Psalm 13:5-6 But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation. I will sing to the Lord, for He has been good to me.

Psalm 23:6 Surely goodness and mercy will follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
