With Faith you can Move Mountains

I thought I was the perfect teacher, mom, and wife.  Nothing could change my mind because I ran the show.   Whatever "it"was, I had it. It wasnt until the Lord broke me into thousands of shattered pieces that I stopped and I learned He is in control.  Not me. Not you. Not my family. HE.  It is for God's glory that we live. Not for the glory of me. Arrogance is a sin as unto witchcraft all by itself talk less of controlling  the issues of life and managing everything. GOD has allowed my pain to begin to get me there. Job 23:10 says, " we may not choose to step out, but God may allow the pain to get us there." Indeed sometimes  it takes a mountain  to get our attention.   I once heard heard T.D.jakes say," if you want to see God move, get in trouble."  BAM ....it's easy  to clap your  hands and shake your hips and praise God when it's all good, but wen you are in trouble hmmmmmm then you really learn just how much mountain you can handle.... I

Ever prayed and it got worse?   I have..... If I had time to tell you worse, I would but I'm still finishing the worse.... When the story is complete I will tell you.   I know one thing I have learned,  when I got worse, I lost faith, got angry, whined, complained, yelled screamed and it didn't help.  I slowly but surely learned that I cannot blame God for the worse, I cannot keep losing faith, I learned that I had a responsibility. What was that responsibility?  It was to keep my eyes on Jesus, to keep them on the holy spirit and to walk the narrow path.   I learned more about God about in my crisis than I ever did when there was peace.  It's funny when you lose so much, you'll start thanking God for crazy stuff.  In the middle of my crisis, I was thanking God my hair worked right that day.  I was thanking God for the opportunity to work an extra job an hour away.  I was thanking God I could the little extra needs in life.  I opened the fridge and said, " Thank yo

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=IxeXjbq Pray for you family, lost children,and don't let Lucifer take authority.  He has been using his power to make us think the world  is his. It was meant for us.  While Adam and Eve gave it up due to being deceived, we don't have to be.  Draw your line in the sand and tell Satan NO more!  Period.  You have the ability, power and authority  to protect your family.  The  question  is : are you going to fix your issues today or will God fix it?  You cannot control your anyone's  will but you can control the dominion given by God to Adam,Eve and yes.... you. YOU CAN PRAY IN THE HEAVENLY REALM AND SAY NO MORE.

Are you a do it all gal? .....   I was once told by a fellow teacher, " I love your can do attitude. You don't need anyone to help."   I took pride in that statement until........  My world fell apart. That story is for another day but let's  suffice it to say, I did it all, solved it all, took care of it all and everyone listened to me.   You needed me, I was there.  I was the ultimate mom, wife, sister, aunt... and most of all teacher. I was in control.   Let me tell you about control......it is likened as unto witchcraft.  I held hands with it, I loved it and I was good and then  when my world fell apart, things changed.  Don't get me wrong, I love God, believe in Jesus and understand his love.   It wasn't until things fell apart, and doing things to the Glory of ME ended, I understood that God was delivering my final demon in order to use me for his purpose. I learned and still am learning to understand that it is all for His glory.  I actually stood

Isaiah 55:11   New International Version (NIV) 11  so is my word  that goes out from my mouth:      It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire      and achieve the purpose  for which I sent it. May the Lord bless you as you pray for your circumstance and glorify God.   May your word not return empty. 

It's strange that over the years I've watched mom's that I thought were good and I thought were bad.  I used to look at mom's in the playground when my son was little and see how each interacted with their child.   I often wondered which mom was right in the way they handled things and which mom was wrong.   I once watched a mom allow, a young child around age four,  to climb monkey bars so high whilst she did nothing but read a magazine.   At the same time, I saw a mom help another child of about the same age,  climb the same monkey bars and hold her hands up lest he fall.  I watched my own child slide up and down a slide and run form equipment to equipment as I intently watched him interact with other kids.  The mom's whose kids were on the monkey bars interested me.   I wondered if the child who wasn't really being watched would fall, and I wondered what would happen if he did.  20 years pass ....... I look back to those days of playgrounds and monkey bar

Here is an you tube I found interesting.   Enabling vs. helping. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mph1lmJSQAo

-A young man of 18 suddenly packs his bags and walks away from his home.   No one knows why and no one can find him.  The only hint is he is running away from from something. -A 19 year old young man, raised in a decent home, not a perfect home, but taught to fight the good fight, had the grades, had the popularity, played football, loved by his teachers and family suddenly decides his first month in college that drugs is o.k. " It is not a big deal" he says, and begins to lie, cheat, sell drugs, drink, blame his parents and lose everything! Scholarships: gone! family: baffled! friends: ran! and now sits in a cell defending the behavior. - A college student defends and writes and presents a  paper on how marijuana is no big deal and affects nothing or no one.   She gives a presentation and her professor applauds .   Marijuana is nothing and affects nothing.   She uses casually and has been able to continue her education today.  Students applaud her speech and decide it'
