Value of Concentration: My God always comes through; for THE RED, WHITE, AND BLUE…. even though his answer may not be what you expect.

Memory Verse: I Trust in your answer and provisions, ABBA.

Good Morning ABBA, Father,

The colors in my palette say, ”Happy Birthday America!” How blessed we are that our country has come back to common sense.  There is no doubt, ABBA, that You heard our prayers.

There are those who still give constant resistance to Christian morals and values….Satan likes to keep his herd brewing and spewing.

Sitting here with my Cup of Fancy (Starbucks Pike Place Decaf), it’s as if the weight of the world has been lifted off of my shoulders. You, ABBA, are once again in control of America.

Think of those Patriots that came before us. There was much prayer and discernment to build our country into  the Greatest Nation On Earth…because it has been blessed, once again.

What does it mean to, ”Trust in the Lord with all of your mind, heart and soul, and lean not on your own understanding?”

There have been so many times within my life that I’ve had to trust God’s plans, rather than mine.

Through my major illness of postpartum depression 47 years ago, God began to recreate me.  He put me back together the way He wanted me to be.

I’m a go-getter, as was my sister Dr. Gail: RIP. Knowing the roots we came from… we were “BECOMERS,” in every sense of the word. If God laid a plan before us and said, ”GO,” we jumped at the chance.

The Holy Spirit guided me to healing: getting a preschool job, returning to school to get re-certified, returning to my school district to once again be an Elementary Art Teacher, taught Kindergarten for 26 years and got my Masters Degree.

Believe me, there was a whole lot of trust issues going on with me. I kept asking “How, Lord, How?” 

He led me to the following scriptures:

Psalm 20:7 We trust in the Name of The Lord Our God.

Psalm 37:3 Trust in The Lord and do good.

Psalm 56:4 In God I trust, I will not be afraid.

Psalm 119:4 for I trust in Your Word.

Proverbs 3:5 Trust in The Lord worth all of your heart.

Isaiah 30:15 In quietness and strength is your trust.

John 14:1 Trust in God; trust also in Me.

In church this morning, the Pastor commented the following:” Think back upon your life and realize how many paths were opened for you.”

Last year my son and I were in the ER with my husband for 7 hours. It was only my “Trust in God,” that gave me the peace beyond understanding. Praise God he was OK.

Dear Friends, if you are facing trials and tribulations, ”Let Go And Let God!”

In time, ABBA, Father will resolve your issues….and you will realize that it was Him and only Him.

MY CHILD: 2 Chronicles 7:14 “If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray, and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and heal their land.”

Come to Me with all of your issues, and I will give you rest. I AM THE ONLY ONE WHO CAN!

Remember I AM THE MAN WITH YOUR PLAN!

I love You.

Your,

ABBA, Father 

Psalm 5:3 In the morning, O Lord, You hear my voice. In the morning, I lay my requests before you, and I wait in expectation. 

Philippians 4:6 Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God.

Psalm 8:5 You made man a little lower than the heavenly beings, and crown him with glory and honor.
