God is always speaking!

It's funny I woke up and the first thing I did was pray. Then I go and sit down at my desk to find the Lord giving me holy spirit inspired idea's for my paintings....and literally a few moments before I was laying in my bed (not sleeping) and I was thinking about that very thing. It's amazing to me how God always speaks to me about the simple thoughts that He knows I've been having; and I didn't have to pray about it, or ask for an answer....and it's not even the thoughts that you mainly ponder upon throughout the day. It's the thoughts that are kept at the back of your mind...that seem so simple or not as important as the more prominent things....and then suddenly He speaks, because even those little thoughts matter enough to Him for Him to speak and show He really does care about the details...He cares about even the littlest thought!!! Isn't His heart for us just amazing and beautiful?

God speaks in the midst of the storm!

Tonight as I was at my most overwhelmed, and I felt like giving up, I tried to pray in my heart to God and as many other times, I found myself unable to find the words....I felt like strife was trying once again to invade my home and so I walked away and said to God, ''I don't want to have strife!"   So I sat down at my computer desk and cried and felt so burdened by this other person and in that moment God spoke to me in the midst of the storm! 

And He said to me Ephesians 4:32: Be Kind and Compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you. This was spoken to me at around 9:35ish pm. 

And when that was spoken my heart made agreement to receive that and do that as the will of God, and when my heart agreed...I was instantly able to find the words I needed to pray for that person! I'm so grateful for the moments that God comes to you and shelters you from the wind and the rain of the storm and quiet all the noises around you and speak those words of power, and comfort that He knows are the perfect words you need to hear and they comfort your soul and you are able to just rest in Him and the loving shelter only He provides. To God, my everything, be the glory....for He is worthy! Amen and Amen :)

My First Ever Post!

This is my first ever post! I never knew anything about blogging and I never knew that it was what all those things, which I thought were people website's, were actually called! LOL!!! I feel so silly now thinking about it. But I'm very excited about figuring this out, well actually I can't take the credit since really it's God who showed me. And I'm very thankful to Him to have this place to write the things in my heart and life down like this and have others who will read it that will hopefully be touched by it, and/or can relate or even find my blog informative. I don't have much time for things in my busy life with my two young daughter's...but I will try to keep up with this blog as much as I can.
