Amen rocky, sis.
That pain...its the one that knows where you have been. Its the one the Lord takes the sting out of but allows you to understand in that deep way how someone else is feeling and what they are facing. I heard this song this morning..i know, i post alot of songs..but i thought of you when i heard it. Its amazing to me how the Holy Spirit works.
love you, girl, and may God's will be done in your life.
in Jesus,
love momo

Hello my friend
I remember when you were
So alive with your wide eyes
Then the light that you had in your heart was stolen
Now you say that it ain't worth stayin'
You wanna run but you're hesitatin'
I'm talkin' to me
Don't let your lights go down
Don't let your fire burn out
'Cause somewhere, somebody needs a reason to believe
Why don't you rise up now?
Don't be afraid to stand out
That's how the lost get found
The lost get found
So when you get the chance
Are you gonna take it?
There's a really big world at your fingertips
And you know you have the chance to change it
There's a girl on the streets, she's cryin'
There's a man whose faith is dyin'
Love is calling you
Don't let your lights go down
Don't let your fire burn out
'Cause somewhere, somebody needs a reason to believe
Why don't you rise up now?
Don't be afraid to stand out
That's how the lost get found
The lost get found
Why do we go with the flow
Or take an easier road?
Why are we playin' it safe?
Love came to show us the way
Love is a chance we should take
I'm movin' out of the way
Don't let your lights go down
Don't let your fire burn out
'Cause somewhere, somebody needs a reason to believe

My Car
I may need some prayers. I had been having such a good last few days.
I was coming home after a really good therapy session, and I wrecked my car. My gut tells me that it is totalled. It had to be towed from the scene, undrivable, air bag deployed, everything. It's crunched. I am praying for good health, but I think I have some whiplash.
I know it's the enemy, but it's still hard. I do not want anymore set backs. So I am praying for answers about this. I can't even think about the possibilities, so I am just accepting what happened. Thank you for the support last night.
I know it's because I am getting stronger in Him. Boy oh Boy.

Fear
I awoke in fear
Am I being punished? How can this be used for His Glory. My life was taking such a turn for the better. The realities have set in. How am I going to even get a job now, without a car? How am I going to complete my project? Is it only going to get worse? How am I suppose to come out of this set back? It's just an accident, but it just cost me alot. I was so careful. I was trying to get my life on track. I just got this awesome roommate, and what if, now I really can't pay the rent.
I know I need to rely on Him, but what now? Sometimes I just wish He would come down and rescue me from this world. I can't even talk to the world about this. Are the people that hate me, wishing this on me? Everytime that I get back on track, is something like this going to happen?

The enemy sees you are doing well and beginning something new for the Lord so the attacks will come. To hinder you. To keep you from growing spiritually and reaching someone for Christ. You're becoming a danger to the enemy so he's throwing these thoughts at you.
Hebrews 13:6
So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.
1 John 4:18
There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love.
These thoughts are tormenting you aren't they? Then they are not thoughts from the Lord. As God is love and love does not torment.
2 Timothy 1:7
For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.

Storms -Step 2
Thank you Pine,
I am listening to "I Will Praise You in This Storm" by Casting Crowns. It's the only thing makes sense, or sometimes, all that makes sense, is that God guides us through the storm.
"Praise the God who gives and takes away. I'll Praise you in this storm and I will lift my hands. You are who are you no matter where I am. Every tear I've cried, you hold in your hands, you never left my side. You know my heart is torn. I will praise you in this storm."
Step 2
I so desperately want to do His will and give back and use my talents/gifts. I pray for His protection in this, and for the provisions. He is the only one who can lead me to where I need to be. I hear him telling me He is about to Bless me. I just need to fall back on those words. I believe with all this rejection and loss I MUST use these things to Glorify His name. I will not be destroyed in or by this.
I rebuke you Satan/Enemy. Enemy- you should be ashamed of yourself, for trying to mess with God's plan for my life. You must feel threatened!! Coward.

Hey Rocky Sis!!
A coward indeed!
With the Power of the Trinity (and the support of all of us) remember sis, you are not alone.
Your will is being tested because you are finding freedom in Him.
Prayers are with you always!!
Love Ya Girl!

A coward indeed!
Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 (New Living Translation)
9 Two people are better off than one, for they can help each other succeed. 10 If one person falls, the other can reach out and help. But someone who falls alone is in real trouble. 11 Likewise, two people lying close together can keep each other warm. But how can one be warm alone? 12 A person standing alone can be attacked and defeated, but two can stand back-to-back and conquer. Three are even better, for a triple-braided cord is not easily broken.

I thought of the storm as well.
Keep your eye on Jesus sis.
When you look at the storm, you will be filled with fear and begin to sink.

Dear Jesus
Oh Father,
I don't want to doubt. I don't want to second guess that You are calling me to something else. Maybe I think I deserve less than your love. This stuff, this crap I am in now - this is what I am use to.
Today, I took out on foot, cancelled my rental car. I cannot get behind the wheel. How symbolic, huh? My car was just another worldly security, really. Now, I am on foot, naked, vulnerable to the world. Upon leaving the apartment, I tasted death - the enemy. Oh Lord, You created this earth, and how disgusting it felt to walk outside in your wonderful creation. I felt the enemy. Men whistling, yelling obscenities at me, the air, saturated with that raw grainy taste of the deployed airbag, the stench of oil leaking from an engine. How this world has forsaken you - this hurts. I want to go somewhere else. But You are calling me to live here for now. Sometimes, I wish I was not so conscious, so aware of the enemy - so familiar with his presence.
But slowly You come back to me. The voices of the officers yesterday - so calm, gentle, and so masculine. It's what I imagine You to be like. The kindness of the adjuster today. The gentle voices from Oasis. Knowing that my girlfriends are coming down to see me this weekend. My best friend asking me if I need food. My roommate bringing me hot chocolate last night. The strong presence of the Feminine, surrounding and protecting me, the Holy Spirit.
It makes me in awe of the polarization that has always been there, created by a fallen angel who just wanted distance from You. Why would he want such a thing? I don't want it. I don't want distance or be away from You again. It's almost impossible, now not to see how wretched he is and how Holy You are. People are not evil, the enemy is and uses people and things just like You want to use me.
My dream - to write, is solidifying, more and more. I just didn't think it would be like this. Please provide for me, even in the face of all this adversity that beckons me to fail. I long for your miracles
