Holy Spirit to the Rescue

Postby sleeplessinflorida » Fri Feb 05, 2010 9:54 am

Hello everyone, did you miss me? ;) Well, I sure missed you! I have been at my sister's house all week and I'm still plugging away. *help* Just kidding. My sister likes for things to be orderly,cleaned, and stylish. Unfortunately, every room in her home is sooo far gone that she simply doesn't know where to begin or how to even go about it. She is stressed all the time and is not good at asking for help. Fortunately for her and without neither one of us realizing it, the Lord has brought us together to rescue eachother. This all started when the Lord led me to this program and the Holy Spirit started to work in me. *band* Praise the Lord!

As I help my sister declutter, clean, organize, and style each room; the Holy Spirit helps me to share GOD with her and her teenage daughters. I realize I have much to learn but I can share my experiences that I have with the Lord in a manner in which they can relate and decide for themselves whether or not to implement the Lord in their lives. This has been very therapeutic for me and I know it has been helping my sister a great deal as well. The Lord is sooo wonderful in all he does! He even had my niece's friend invite her to church while I've been here and she actually said yes she would love to go. *band* Praise the Lord! My oldest niece asks how I'm able to do the things I do, which again, gives me the opportunity to talk about GOD. I simply tell her it's thru the GRACE OF GOD that I'm able to do anything. I tell her all the time that only if its GOD WILL then I will do this or that, etc. I get amazed on how the Holy Spirit comes to the rescue daily.

I know I cant do it alone. My feet hurt; my back hurts; my body is simply sore from all the work but because the Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit is with me I am able to continue to plug away! Hallelujah!

I was called in for an interview yesterday and I believe I found a job. Just thought I share that with you because Lord knows I've been needing a job and he knows what I've been wanting. It does pay to be patient. Although I haven't received an offer letter for the position, I believe the position is mine in my heart. Good things really happen for those who wait! Thank you Lord Jesus. Thank you Holy Spirit for being there with me during the interview and helping me with my responses. I love the Lord. He is sooo wonderful. *band*

*ohyeah*
sleepless is on fire!!! That was how my sister got me *BigGrin*

It is amazing how God works through us. I have found that it is the quite times that are the most effective for people, where they can take in what they want. By your actions and testimony... your light shines through and they are drawn to that light. Ligke a bug to the zapper! Holy Zapped!

And while I was reading your post, I had a vision of you helping others in the same way. The feeling I got was single moms with their children. Is there an outreach like that by you that you can volunteer at? You would be such a blessing to them.

The more you bless others, the more you are blessed in return.
It is better to light a candle then curse the darkness *lost*
No fear... just freedom *knight*
