10/28/08'S BLESSING

What the Lord Is Saying Today
October 28, 2008. There is someone whom you need to love. By your standards, they do not deserve the love you know is required from you. You are wondering about the next step. Could I just share My heart with you for a moment. My love is unlimited and without boundaries. This is a love worth having. It is imperishable and unspeakable. Share it and give it in outlandish generosity. To share My love is to share Me because I am love. It is the core of My being. Therefore when you share My love, you are actually sharing Me. Humble yourself and grab hold of My grace within. Open the great river of life and love you hold inside. Let it gush forth and flood your situation. John 3:16-17. “God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son to die on the cross for our sins so that judgment would not come to those who believe and they would inherit eternal life. He did not come into the world to judge the world but that through His death on the cross believers would be spared.”
October 28, 2008. There will be an unexpected contact. Someone is coming on the scene you do not know. Don’t dismiss this. I have sent them your way. You won’t know why they are there until later. You can make the decision whether or not they will stay. It will be evident as you go along if they are to remain. The reason for this is to teach you to walk in wisdom. If you seek Me with a willing heart, to obey at every juncture, I will show you what to do. Do not rely on your own understanding, because there are things good and bad revealed. Trust in Me in this adventure.Psalms 37:5-6 “Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, and He will do it. He will bring forth your righteousness as the light and your judgment as the noonday.”

TODAY'S BLESSING

October 21, 2008. My hand is upon you in good times and bad, in fires and floods. Your tenacity and endurance have caught My attention. In difficult times you have consistently continued to the finish line. When sickness has come for a visit, you cling to healing until the victory. Many times you could have whined like others but instead you found a way in your heart to give Me thanks while believing for the best. In the end, over and over again, you have prevailed over your enemies because you truly believe they are also My enemies and that I will prevail over them. This too has blessed Me to see you, My child, be the overcomer of each assault. Now you face the biggest battle of all. You will prevail! Isaiah 43:2 “When you go through the sea, I am with you. When you go through rivers, they will not sweep you away. When you walk through fire, you will not be burned, and the flames will not harm you.”

October 21, 2008. You have been carrying concerns on your shoulders that you need to be sharing with someone else. You have wondered if they will understand what you have been going through. I know you understand not to tell everyone, but you need to tell someone. Tell the one whom you know prays. This is the one who will not take up an offense with those you are having a hard time with. This is the one who can give you good counsel, and will take part of the burden off your shoulders, so it will be easier to carry. It is tolerable to have the burden, but better to have it shared. Galatians 6:2 “Share each other’s burdens, and in this way obey the law of Christ.”

HOOKEY

Wednesday, Kerry and I played Hookey. I took her to the OBGYN to get more meds and then we picked out her birthday cake at Publix's. We later went to Goodwill to shop for her Halloween costume. She stared sout wanting to be a vampress, then a snake and finally a witch. Hopefully she will stick with witch. I also got Kelly 3 pairs of really nice jeans. We at lunch at The Chocolate Covered Strawberry. OMG.... It was so good and filling. If you are ever in Gallatin, you need to eat at The Chocolate Covered Strawberry. It's a sweet little tea room like atmosphere that has the best sandwhiches and desserts. You need to go!
We also went by my work so she could meet everyone. We then went to Dollar General to get candy for her party favorites. They are boxes with her inital and filled with candy. I am getting excited about her party. I hope we have a good turnout.

THIS WAS REALLY SPEAKING TO ME.... EVERYDAY THIS SPEAKS TO ME

October 9, 2008. You have many things happening in your life personally, and also in the world around you, that are causing anxiety. I too had many things designed and thrown at Me to trouble Me while living on earth. We both have the devil as a thief, and he wants to kill, steal and destroy anything that would give peace, love and joy. I called on My Father for help in overcoming these anxious events. I trusted Him step by step, and moment by moment, and by this I overcame. And you can overcome too, in the same way that I did. Our Father wants to give you life, even life in abundance. John 10:10 (AMP) The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows).

DREAMS...WHAT DO THEY MEAN?

Last night I had the weirdest dream...
I dreamt that Kelly had cheated on me and gotten his lover pregnant. I dreamt that she (Carolina) had come to me to tell me that she loved Kelly and he loved her and they we having a baby together.

OK, 1st off, I know that Kelly would never cheat on me, so what the crap did I dream that for? I also dreamt that Kelly and I never got married. That we were only living together but were in process of adopting. We just waiting on the baby to be born. Freaky! So, any way, Carolina told me that kelly was going to marry her.I laughed and said Honey, we've been together for 6 years and never married, what makes you think he will marry you? then Kelly came to me and asked me to allow Carolina and the baby to live with us.

I am not a freak!I am not sharing my man with nobody! The dream really freaked me out! When I woke up I had to tell Kelly about it. Of course he got a kick out of it, but it still had me rattled. Why, I don't know? Just wanted to share with ya!


On a happy note: Kerry got on the A/B homor roll! Her name will be in the paper! We are sooo proud of her as she is with herself. That is so awesome! Way to Kerry!

For Everything there is a season

Last Thursday the Blackwell family had to say good-bye to the rock of our family. Nanny passed away Thursday Sept. 25th at 11:30 pm. It was a peaceful death. We were visible shaken, knowing that nothing would ever be the same again. My ally was gone. Who would put people in their place and tell them to mind their own business? You know I can't do it. It's not my place unless it directly invloves my direct family.

Then on Friday moring at 10:25 am my Uncle Joe stopped fighting. Alheimiers had taken his life. I was with him at the time. The nurses at the nursing home were there to comfort me. Or at least they tried. There was realy no comforting someone when they have watch two people that they cherised so dearly, take their last breaths.

That is exactly what I did with both of them. I can't really it explain how it feels. I felt God's hand on both ocassions. It wasn't feeling his hands taking their lives, it was his hand's that were comforting me. There was peace. The only reason I was crying was because I was sad to see my loved ones leave for their heavenly homes.
I like to think I am a strong person, but only surely by the grace of God. I now know my purpose in life, at least one of them.
