Memory Verse:  ABBA…I ask for your wisdom….to follow my life’s plan.

Good Morning, ABBA, Father,

Your Love is overwhelming. I’m preparing my Cup of Fancy (Snickerdoodle Decaf..splash of cream), lighting my candle, and enjoying the warmth of being in my War Room with You.

My palette of blues reflect the “Gift of Wisdom,” that was once placed upon me.

As my heart is full this morning, I think back:

*It is seeking your wisdom, that made me a new creation in Christ.

*It is placing my mind in your Holy Word, that transformed my thoughts, and brought me to this genre of peace and strength.

When I think back; to my family dysfunction, to the legalism that was stuffed down my throat, to realizing what a mess I was in high school and college, to climbing out of the darkness of postpartum depression/anxiety, to climbing the ladder of education, to teach Kdg. for 26 years, to going on to receive my Masters in Education, and finally, “Becoming,” an instructor for The Communicate Institute, for 6 years; it was only YOU, ABBA, that guided me step by step.

I am now your FEARLESS FAITH; the name of which You anointed me. 

Only You, ABBA, Father…. Have taken me from such a mess…..and anointed me as Your Daughter.

As I enter heaven:

*I cannot wait for You to hold me.

*I cannot wait to see you face to face.

*I cannot wait to hear you say,”Well done, my Good and Faithful Servant.”

Years ago, The Holy Spirit told me, “To seek You as did the woman with the issue of blood.” I was obedient to the wish of The Holy Spirit.

As Christ called the woman with the issue of blood,”Daughter,”  in THE CHOSEN, I wept…..and wept…..and wept.

The God and Jesus that I was given as a child, scared the “Livin Begeeebies,” outta me.

When I realized that Jesus was in tears, as He called her,”Daughter,” I visualized and felt the love of the “Real Jesus.”  He told her,”It was your faith that healed you.”

I am so blessed, ABBA, that you have given me a man of God for 52 years.  OH! We struggled! Building a farm, remodeling this farm house built in 1890, raising 3 strong Christian sons, me teaching for 30 years; you have cleared our path and guided us.

My husband and I had to develop a trust with You. Farmer always said, “The Good Lord always has a way of working things out.” 

The greatest wisdom that you ever taught me, was to follow You step….by…step; not to worry about about tomorrow; for tomorrow is in your hands, and will take care of itself.

You granted us wisdom in our parenting.  We were not perfect by any means.  That was the hardest job of our lives.

Dear Reader..Pray….Seek…Listen  and He will lay your life out before you step..by..step.

Thank you, Father, for blessing me this day.

MY CHILD: I am not only your ABBA, but also your Teacher.  I will teach you and instruct you in the way you should go. As you concentrate on the wonders all around you, that I have created….know that THE GREAT I AM is in charge of your life. One of the wisest things you can say is, “Father, I surrender my life to you. Take care of everything.”  Know that I will never leave you nor forsake you.

I love you.

Your,

ABBA, Father

Proverbs 3: 13-18 Blessed is the man who finds wisdom, the man who gains understanding; for she is more profitable than silver, and yields better returns than gold..  She is more precious than rubies; nothing you desire can compare to her.  Long life is in her right hand; and in her left hand are riches and honor. Her ways are pleasant ways, and all of her paths are peace… She is a tree of life to those who embrace her.  Those who lay hold of her will be blessed.

Proverbs 4 :6-9 Do not forsake wisdom and she will protect you; love her and she will watch over you.  Wisdom is supreme; therefore get wisdom.  Though it cost all you have, get understanding.  Esteem her and she will exalt you.  She will set a garland of grace on your head, and present you with a crown of splendor.

Proverbs 8:10-11 Choose my instruction instead of silver, knowledge, rather than choice gold, for Wisdom is more precious than rubies, and nothing you desire can compare to her.
