day 10. prayer

don't really know what to say about prayer. for me it's always been a lifeline and I know prayer is really important. and it's really cool to pray effectively. doesn't mean I got the answers always immediately, but I knew that my prayers were answered in some way.

today I really had to remind myself of God's truth that His love casts out all fear. but I'm learning. I'm falling and getting up again, but I hope to look back one day and see that I really made some huge steps, atm I can't really see it, but I believe that I'm making progress. I'm believing that God is changing me although it doesn't seem that way, I know God is doing it.

so I keep on praying cause God doesn't have a voicemail or answering machine

And what you believe is what you will receive...sometimes we look at ourselves and we don't see changes...because we continue to look at ourself and see the old instead of the new...what we have to do...is start looking for the new and stop looking for the old...and then and only then are we able to recognize the new.

Praying is our lifeline to God...it's our way to talk with Him...make our requests known...and tell Him how much He means to us. Don't neglect your prayer life sis...make sure to pray daily.

luv ya

day 11. surrender

I always find it interesting to talk about the Holy Spirit. It's Someone that's hard to explain to non-believers, but yet so real in my life. I've had awesome encounters and comforting times with the Holy Spirit speaking new truths and revelations in my life.
I've started to know Him as the Spirit of wisdom, often for situations that I didn't know what to answer people, I felt Him giving me the answers. He has given me knowledge to prophesy over people I didn't know and see their lives completely changed and touched. He is a gentleman and His tender way of speaking is just so sweet.
I am longing to get to know Him better and better, to spend more time with Him. I need to get more disciplined as well with the Miracle grow list and to really let God's Spirit inspire me for new songs, new paintings and new creative things. but good study/topic today

Holy Spirit...I have some awesome memories with the Holy Spirit too sis...it's so wonderful to have Him in my life...He makes things so much easier...as He always has the perfect answers in any situation. I love to spend time in His presence, talking with Him, and sharing with Him. He sees things and points them out to me. I have a gift of discernment and I was thinking this morning...how He helps me discern many things I would have otherwise never have understood or have known.

Keep growing closer to Him sis...He will make your life complete in all things.

luv ya

Would love to hear you share when then Holy Spirit reveals himself to you. Just love the stories about Him and what he's doing.

You are doing fabulous.

day 12. falling down.

I love the encouragement today and the song we fall down is great. when we fall down we haven't become lower, but as we get up we can fight again and go for truth.

great encouragement

I'm starting to learn so much here, really great!

[Dora]

Amen! His grace is sufficient for each of us.

A friend use to say falling down is just a learning curve for next time. And he was right. We learn a little ever time and we're stronger then next time. Not necessarily that we wont fall next time but not as hard or deep (though it might feel like it at times) and we can get up quicker.

Praise God! He is good! His mercies last forever.

There's another song sis by Toby Mac it's called Get Back Up...if you get a moment try to find it and listen to it. It reminds us to get up each and every time we stumble.

day 13. fellowship

due to internet problems I couldnt connect with the chatroom,
but I know that it really does help to want to help another person, instead of looking to yourself.

I love helping other people and I've learned that it's better to give than to receive. See other people's lives changed encourages me as well.

so yeah, I liked this topic, fellowship is really important.

day 14. a new beginning.

wow I did see a change since the moment I came here. I have a new hope, I'm living out of grace completely and I'm not that perfectionistic anymore that I have to fix my life my way, but I can truly live by God's grace alone. Terrific!

I do not know what the future will hold for me, I'm really curious. I don't know how God will use me, but I do know God has planted gifts and dreams inside of me and I hope to figure out sometime how that's going to work.

The encouragements helped me so much, whenever I felt that I couldn't get through with this your encouragement helped me so much! thank you.

I'm not sure yet which study I'm going to follow, so many interesting, but I will do one soon. I love the freedom here, and I love this safety.

thank you so much for staying with me on this path

[mlg]

Yay! This is great sis...you've come a long way. Keep going back over the steps...and I look forward to seeing where the Lord leads you next. Thank you for sharing your journey through the steps..I have been blessed.

luv ya
