My God is an awesome God

God is awesome and amazing. Finally, we are having spring weather and it is so beautiful! Flowers blooming, trees budding, the sights and sounds of birds and animals is so refreshing AND THEN, TODAY….SNOW!!!! God does have a sense of humor and I realize that quite clearly as I peek out my window on this day. The wind is blowing, the snowflakes, although small, are flying, and I am bundled up in jeans and a jacket because I am freezing. All of this after having the windows open last Friday and wearing capris because I was so warm…

SPOTLIGHT 6: THE GIFT OF WISDOM

As previously revealed, My Granny and mother both had “The Gift of God’s Wisdom.” Oh, you bet they were human, and had their faults; however, they were wise in the spirit. For years, as I rebuilt my life, I prayed for the Gift of Wisdom. The summer of 2000, I began boldly to digest Psalms and Proverbs. I’d sit on my big country porch and read, study, write, and respond. A rather comical incident occurred, once I began my inhalation of The Word. In my dreams, I kept hearing and seeing the words, ”tree of life.” This same…

SPOTLIGHT 7 MY GOD HAS AN OCD SENSE OF HUMOR

October 6,2000. My cousin Diana’s son Jeffrey was at the farm for the weekend. I knew in my spirit, the following: · As I took him home to Cincinnati, I was supposed to meet her at All Saints Catholic Church for 4:00pm mass. This church was my home parish in my youth. I attended All Saints Elementary, and was married there also. · I knew that I was called there for a reason. · I responded to the call as I knelt there prior to mass. “Lord, whatever it is that you want me to do, annoint me to fulfill…

FACING THE GIANTS

JOBS, ILLNESSES, PROBLEMS,FAMILY “I can’t, Lord. I’m not strong enough. Remember….. There’s so much I have to overcome. I’m so afraid. Good Lord, how will I ever get through this?” These were the LIES that the evil one placed in my head…..UNTIL…. THE SPIRIT TOOK OVER MY MIND. 1 Samuel 16:17 But the Lord said to Samuel, ”Do not consider his appearance or his height (Goliath), for I have rejected him. The Lord does not look at the things man looks at. Man looks at the outer appearance, but the Lord looks at…

God, are you there?

Sometimes, life is busy and hectic and I  feel as if I am getting nowhere! And I have moments I holler out to ask God why, who, What, where. I am in the process of ‘remaking’ myself. I have a new job which means a new skill must be learned, new co-workers must be experienced and I love working with people but sometimes,  sometimes, it is just too much!! Then, I cry out, “God , are you there? Is this really what you want me to do? Isn’t there some other way?” Sounds familiar…

BROKEN, BURIED, REBORN

Ps 34:17-18 The righteous cry out and the Lord hears them; He delivers them from all their troubles. The Lord is close to the brokenhearted, and saves those crushed in spirit. WHAT AN AWESOME GOD WE SERVE! Since I retired from teaching four years ago, I have kept my foot in the door. Once a teacher, always a teacher; I keep involved, in the field of education, by consulting. It was a glorious day! The principal and teachers were over the top with hugs, smiles, laughter, and much appreciation for me. If I heard it once, I heard…

YOU TELL’EM, HERMAN!

“I’m a happy warrior. Be strong, not wrong! ” Herman Cain Joshua 1:5 No one will be able to stand up against you all the days of your life. As I was with Moses, so I will be with you; I will never leave you nor forsake you. One of my very favorite people: He started out as a janitor. Just view what a strong work ethic and confidence can fulfill in one’s life. Herman Cain: He is an Afro-American author, business executive, radio host, syndicated columnist, and Tea Party Activist. He was a Republican nominee for…

UPLIFT MY CHILDREN, LORD.

The Shepherd will find You. Isaiah 40:10-11 See, The Sovereign Lord comes with power, His arm rules for them. See, His reward is with Him and His recompense accompanies Him. He tends His flock like a shepherd; He carries the lambs in His arms and carries them close to His heart. He gently leads those that have young. If you are a mother, you will do anything to keep your children healthy and safe. You’d give your own life for them, if need be. If you are a woman of faith, the future of your child’s…

So…here I am God

Our God is an awesome God, truly amazing, magnificent, and wise. Me on the other hand….whoa. I am growing older and yet I feel stuck. No matter what job I hold,  I  feel someone is always better, smarter, wiser; and even if they aren’t really they keep telling me they are. Even in my field I hold a degree in, and have 35 years of experience, I had a young 24 year old acting as if they held the knowledge of the universe within their brain. Really?!! My degree is early childhood development, I have raised…

He is an awesome God and longs to be with us!   Walk with me father God! Be with all today, as well. Amen Sandra Sanders boundless trust…

Our God is……

Our God is an awesome God!!! He gave Ohio sunshine and warmth on Easter! And snow (!) at 2:30 in the morning! So, April fools day is on the 2nd this year . Haha May God give you blessings upon blessings this season,  amen…

Easter Sunday

Christ the Lord is risen today,  A-a-a-a-alleluia. A hymn I remember from my youth. This is a glorious day! Praise be to God in the highest!! To everyone, happy Easter,  may God’s blessings and mercy fall upon you this day! Peace, love, and good will. Amen Sandra Sanders,  boundless trust…

God is…..

For God so loved  the world  He gave his only son that whoever believes in him will not die but have eternal life . John 3:16 Easter, the middle chapter in the story of Jesus. The beginning of the story was his birth at Christmas, and then as he began his ministry the people swung from belief in him to disbelief. Ultimately he was fulfilling prophecy to save mankind which was his crucifixion and resurrection. Good Friday is the day he was tried and crucified on a wooden cross. I pray that everyone remembers why he shed blood for all…

HE KNOWS MY NAME

Jeremiah 1: 5 Before I formed you in the womb, I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations. Recently, I went with one of my friends to a Little Big Town Concert in Columbus, Ohio. I am a spirit listener, and often He speaks to me in the most outrageous situations. During the concert, the tech/lighting crew was flashing colored lights throughout the crowd, giving an aesthetic nuance. Here were my thoughts: *Look at the thousands of the people in this arena. They are, just a speck…

HE GAVE ME GOD’S LOVE, RELATIONSHIP, NOT RELIGION

Matt 23:1-4 Then Jesus said to the crowds and to His disciples: “The teachers of the law and the Pharisees sit in Moses seat. So you must obey them (10 commandments). But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach. They tie up heavy loads and place them on men’s shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to lift a finger to move them.” Today, March 2, 2018, at noon, I will be watching the funeral of Dr. Billy Graham, on Fox News. What would I have ever done without him…
