What are you thankful for???

What are you thankful for? I am thankful for my freedom. For without freedom, I will not be able to enjoy the wonderful life that God has blessed my family and I with. I am free from sin, shame, depression, sickness, guilt, and people. Not to mention I live in a country where I can read my bible and pray to my God freely. There are times when we complain about the small things, instead of being thankful for what you already have. Let us all give thanks unto the Lord for he is good and his mercy endures forever. Enjoy time with family, and friends, and know that you are forgiven and free from the trick of the enemy.

Lord, I Thank You!

Amen is all I have to say because the Lord has been mighty good. As I examine all that he has done, my soul rejoices. I've been washed in the blood of the Lamb, all sins have been blotted out never to be remembered. I've been change, my mind, body and soul are no longer the same. I have a new desire and appetite for all things lovely, holy, faithful, and true. My God looks at me differently, he sees me in his light. My paths are no longer dreary and weary, dark and desolate they are progressive, prosperous, fun-filled, and straight. Once you realized all that Jesus has done there's no way in the word you can come up with any sort of debate. This is a Thank You and a Hallelujah to my Lord because he has lifted me. He has kept me, he has loved me, bought me with a price that no one else could pay. He has made me into something more valuable than rubies. He has kissed me, healed me, and held me in his arms. This is a Thank You and a bless your wonderful name to the God who sits on the throne. The one that is touched with the feelings of my infirmities, the one who desires the praises of his people. This is a Thank You and an ol magnify the Lord with me to the God of our forefathers, the one who created the world out of nothing, parted the red sea and close it up on the enemy. This is a Thank You to a Father who reveals his promises, visions, desires, and mysteries to his little children. O This is a Thank You to the King of kings, and the Lord of lords who rules the world, and still has time to love me. I have a Thank you Jesus in my heart for a God that is merciful, and kind, patient, and just, forgiving, and omnipotent, righteous, and amazing. I shall never forget that He is Love, and that nothing in this world can take his place. I am blown away and don't have nothing else to say, but Thank You Jesus! Victoria Ruth :D

I just want to serve Him more

Some changes had to be made for God to see his reflection in me... First off I deleted my Facebook page. Seriously, (this is strictly for me) it's not needed. Countless hours were wasted, and I found that I was hindering myself. Trying to help others, I found myself drifting away from God, ugh! I so wish I would of never got a page in the first place. That being said, I'm glad I'm done with it so I can move FORWARD. What I found refreshing is how God is giving me wonderful ideas for the upcoming days, months, and year. I just want to serve him more...(in my sweet voice) and I feel that this blog will be a great avenue. For he is my great reward!, not by the amount of virtual friends I have, or whether someone will "like" what I say. Pish-Posh, I'm doing this because I love God, and there is nothing more rewarding then feeling his presence as I write, and minister. "...those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint" (Isaiah 40:31). That's what I believe, and that's what I have been doing, hoping in the LORD, and waiting. Lamentations 3: 24-26 says, "I say to myself, "The Lord is my portion; therefore I will wait for him." The Lord is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him; it is good to wait quietly for the salvation of the Lord." I've been waiting on the Lord to tell me when, and where, how, and why? I've been in deep prayer about what he has told me to do, and I'm ready to obey and serve him in this new endeavor. ******Thank You Jesus****** Upcoming things are as followed: Poetry...lots of it, an online magazine (need writers), and last but not least a book. I'm praying, and I ask that you pray with me. I will be posting more about what he (the Lord) is asking me to do. What I've learned is that no two people are alike, everyone is different, and by obeying God and doing what feels right, will only bring joy to your life and a smile to God's face. Serve God faithfully, and let him get the glory. Victoria Ruth ;D
