Moving ahead in 2020

I will not carry resentment into 2020. I will not let anger and hurt follow me into the new year. I forgive, I do not forget. I don’t harbor ill will. I just move forward. I don’t go back. I’m not living in the past. I don’t know you and you don’t know me. I am not a thief, and I am not a con artist. I do not intentionally place people in harms way nor do I try to hurt them intentionally. I move forward . What people think of me, who don’t even know me, is not my fault. I’m moving forward, I forgive, I harbor no ill will. My conscious is clear. I do not hate. I forgive, I don’t forget. I’m too old to keep hate in my heart. Have a good rest of your life. God I know you got this and I’m content with my decisions. My need to start 2020 with a clear heart and forgiveness for those who have done me wrong is complete. I have said my peace and I’m done. I place it in the atmosphere. I spoke it, it is done. Finished. I’m content.

You preach about my people’s life,
I live my people’s life

Good Morning My Love

  
6 Praise be to the Lord,

    for he has heard my cry for mercy.
7 The Lord is my strength and my shield;
    my heart trusts in him, and he helps me.
My heart leaps for joy,
    and with my song I praise him.

Psalms 28:6-7   

Good Morning My Love

May God bless our travels and give us an uneventful journey. Seattle here I come. Grand babies here I come. I love you and I hope you are not planning on being silent forever. No bible verse of encouragement Friday or Monday. I miss you already My Love.

Good Night My Love

13 I remain confident of this:
    I will see the goodness of the Lord
    in the land of the living.
14 Wait for the Lord;
    be strong and take heart
    and wait for the Lord.

Psalms 27:13-14

That’s my scripture now. I will remain confident. God has nothing but goodness for me and I will see this in my life time. I will wait on the Lord. I walk by faith and not by sight. Thank you God for your blessings. I love you and I have confidence that you love me. See you in two weeks. Be blessed and be a blessing to someone My Love.

Good Morning My Love

Romans 4:16-25 New International Version (NIV)

16 Therefore, the promise comes by faith, so that it may be by grace and may be guaranteed to all Abraham’s offspring—not only to those who are of the law but also to those who have the faith of Abraham. He is the father of us all. 17 As it is written: “I have made you a father of many nations.”[a] He is our father in the sight of God, in whom he believed—the God who gives life to the dead and calls into being things that were not.

18 Against all hope, Abraham in hope believed and so became the father of many nations, just as it had been said to him, “So shall your offspring be.”[b] 19 Without weakening in his faith, he faced the fact that his body was as good as dead—since he was about a hundred years old—and that Sarah’s womb was also dead. 20 Yet he did not waver through unbelief regarding the promise of God, but was strengthened in his faith and gave glory to God, 21 being fully persuaded that God had power to do what he had promised. 22 This is why “it was credited to him as righteousness.” 23 The words “it was credited to him” were written not for him alone, 24 but also for us, to whom God will credit righteousness—for us who believe in him who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead. 25 He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification.

God wants me to have hope beyond hope. No matter what it looks like in the natural, God wants me to have faith. Blessed be the name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Lord hear my prayers as I need you in my life. Hear the prayers of your people. We shall not be forsaken. You love us. Our time is not always your time. Keep us close to you. We love you. I love you. Be blessed and be a blessing to someone My Love.

Good Night My Love

Thank you God for today. I love that God has plans for me. I love that God’s plans are to not harm me. Plans to prosper me and to give me hope.
Jeremiah 29:11

Lord I pray that your plan is sooner and not later. I need you Lord to come with your plans. Lord I will just stay hopeful. I’m not going to stay depressed and lonely. There is more in store for me than I know. I keep remembering that God has plans for me. Plans to prosper me and to give me hope. Praise God. I’m excited about that. I’m willing to stay focused on God’s promises to me and for me. I love the Lord and thank God for remembering me and keeping me close. Come Lord come, for you are welcome here. Be blessed and be a blessing to someone My Love.

Good Night My Love

Matthew 5:43-48 New International Version (NIV)

Love for Enemies

43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor[a] and hate your enemy.’ 44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. 46 If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that? 47 And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that? 48 Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.

It’s all about the attitude. Let’s try to live in peace with each other’s. That sounds so liberal to some people. They would much rather have discord. Conflict is their life. If they are not angry or putting down somebody then their world is incomplete. This current government feeds on discontent. If they can drop hate seeds to their base, then sit back and watch them bloom, their objective is met. I pray that this outright racist behavior is not rewarded with another four years. The fact that it’s out in the open is good. It reminds us there is still a lot of hate to stir up. God I pray that we can find peace. Let there be peace, not war. Be blessed My Love and be a blessing to someone.

Good Morning My Love

God bless you this morning and every morning. Thank you Lord for Waking me up this morning. There is more for me to do.

Jesus spoke in settings that were not always safe. Jesus would always run the risk of people speaking up and disrupting his speech. Jesus teaches us to speak the truth, no matter the controversy. The truth allows us to reveal things about ourselves that others use to judge us or that we use to judge ourselves. Our enemies judge us by the message of the day. They strike at our insecurities and then we doubt, and we are back peddling trying to discredit them or saying stuff like no I’m not, you are. Stand in our truth. Know what God has revealed to us. Jesus is the light of the world. Pray for peace in our city My Love. I’m off to work now, Macys is my go to in times of trouble. 4-5 hours a day to put something in my pocket. Thank you God for looking out for me. I love you.


John 8:12-19

Dispute Over Jesus’ Testimony

12 When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”

13 The Pharisees challenged him, “Here you are, appearing as your own witness; your testimony is not valid.”

14 Jesus answered, “Even if I testify on my own behalf, my testimony is valid, for I know where I came from and where I am going. But you have no idea where I come from or where I am going. 15 You judge by human standards; I pass judgment on no one. 16 But if I do judge, my decisions are true, because I am not alone. I stand with the Father, who sent me. 17 In your own Law it is written that the testimony of two witnesses is true. 18 I am one who testifies for myself; my other witness is the Father, who sent me.”

19 Then they asked him, “Where is your father?”

“You do not know me or my Father,” Jesus replied. “If you knew me, you would know my Father also.”

Good Morning My Love

John 15:1-4

The Vine and the Branches

15 “I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. 2 He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes[a] so that it will be even more fruitful. 3 You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. 4 Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.

God bless you My Love. United together we are stronger. We can’t do this alone. I trust you. I follow you. Togetherness is underrated. My heart longs for you. Be blessed today and be a blessing to someone My Love.

Good Night My Love

I’m choosing to stay persistent and in the present. I’m believing Hid has the right job for me and it will reveal itself soon. Thank you for reminding me that I’m not a Good Samaritan. But I will keep trying to be one. I am so far from perfect. Blessed are those who praise God for the things that are being done in their lives even when they don’t see anything changed. God, I’m continuing to praise you, worship you and thank you daily Lord. Glory be to the Lord. I will continue with my routine of praising and loving God. Be blessed and be a blessing to someone My Love.

Good Morning My Love

A Prayer of Trust
Trust is based on a person’s character, ability, and truthfulness. It is an act of committing oneself to another’s good intentions and care. There is no shame in that game. Everyone is a winner. Trust in God to give you what you need, not what you want.

Psalm 62[a]

For the director of music. For Jeduthun. A psalm of David.

1 Truly my soul finds rest in God;
    my salvation comes from him.
2 Truly he is my rock and my salvation;
    he is my fortress, I will never be shaken.

3 How long will you assault me?
    Would all of you throw me down—
    this leaning wall, this tottering fence?
4 Surely they intend to topple me
    from my lofty place;
    they take delight in lies.
With their mouths they bless,
    but in their hearts they curse.[b]

5 Yes, my soul, find rest in God;
    my hope comes from him.
6 Truly he is my rock and my salvation;
    he is my fortress, I will not be shaken.
7 My salvation and my honor depend on God[c];
    he is my mighty rock, my refuge.
8 Trust in him at all times, you people;
    pour out your hearts to him,
    for God is our refuge.

9 Surely the lowborn are but a breath,
    the highborn are but a lie.
If weighed on a balance, they are nothing;
    together they are only a breath.
10 Do not trust in extortion
    or put vain hope in stolen goods;
though your riches increase,
    do not set your heart on them.

11 One thing God has spoken,
    two things I have heard:
“Power belongs to you, God,
12     and with you, Lord, is unfailing love”;
and, “You reward everyone
    according to what they have done.”

What makes a person trustworthy? What are my hesitations and my desires to trust God?

Good Night My Love

What a good walk. Oh but you probably enjoyed yourself on the motorcycle more. That is a great way to connect with the community. You have such good connections with people. Stay faithful. Stay true to who you are. You are an original. You are unique. I love how you are always giving back to others. Now I’m back off the road again for a while. My car’s engine light is on again. I can only ride this for so long. I have to keep this vehicle working for as long as I can. OK God, I’m back to my request for a job and a car, in that order, if possible. Lord, Lord, Lord. Let’s get back to our prayers before this car gives out on me. Be blessed and be a blessing to someone My Love.

Good Afternoon My Love

Amendment to earlier post

Do not read into my semi hoarding that I am harboring feelings for some long lost love. You have been the only Love in my life for years now. Don’t make a sermon about letting go of the past for me again. My eyes are on the present and the future. My heart is not in the past and I am not longing for anyone from my past but you. Period.

Good Morning My Love

Stay faithful and do not doubt. Faithfulness is necessary. Do not doubt. Stay faithful. It seems the summer is alway my time for hope. Things are different during the summer. Especially since I have basically been off during the summer for the past 15 years.

Working at Macy’s is something I enjoy, until it’s too much having long days during the school year. Thank you Lord for options. If only Macys paid well enough to make a living. I’m staying faithful and determined to follow God’s will in my life.

I really need a job that will pay the bills. Lord I pray that you will guide me to where I need to be. Where I can do your will and be fulfilled spiritually.

I’ve been cleaning out my area at home and my daughter helps me sometimes. She’s like, throw it away, I’m like ohhhhhh, this is a memory, but she’s right sometimes. We have reduced a lot of just stuff taking up space. I’m amazed at what doesn’t get thrown away on a daily basis.

This is going to take a long time with lots of dust flying. I just keep going through junk. Throw it away, get rid of it. Don’t just move it from one place to another, either box it, throw it away or donate it. Make a decision and stick to it.

I’m going to Seattle from the 23rd to the 28th. Mom will be 85 and has never visited her granddaughter’s home. I’m excited about a mini vacation. I get to see my grand babies and be Grandma Nana again. Hopefully we can have a delightful visit.

Well, I’m thinking of going to Lifetime because I need to workout. Aqua aerobics is my thing.  I have to go to the store also. I made mashed potatoes yesterday but they were a disaster. Crunchy mashed potatoes.yuck!! I didn’t let the potatoes cook long enough. I have to redeem myself.
Be blessed today and be a blessing to someone My Love.

Good Afternoon/Evening My Love

Its a leap of faith

God knows my heart

Isaiah 30:18 

New International Version (NIV)

18 Yet the Lord longs to be gracious to you;

    therefore he will rise up to show you compassion.

For the Lord is a God of justice.

    Blessed are all who wait for him!

The Lord longs to be gracious to me. Thank God. I need someone to be gracious. I pray that the Lord will be gracious. I pray that the Lord will show his compassion. God’s compassion for us. We need compassion, grace, faith, Love and trust. I can see it is a leap of faith. The Lord is is just. I will wait as long as it takes. I will stay the course. I will keep the faith and the Lord’s commands. I will do what needs to be  done. I pray that I do God’s will. I will be content and filled with joy. I will. I will. I will. Be blessed and be a blessing to someone My Love.

Your words are a blessing. Take a deep breath and enjoy the rest of the day. Don’t look in the past. It’s today and the next day and the next day. No manipulation or jealousy. I just know that God can do anything. I need to trust in God for every aspect of my life. I need to focus more. Be specific. I need a  good paying, energetic, in my wheel house, good for me, something that I like and feel challenged yet supported.  I can ask for more comfort level experiences. Support in the beginning, middle and end of this process. Please Lord don’t take too long. I’m anxious and nervous. I, I , I ......less of me and more of you lLord. Be blessed My Love and be a blessing to someone.

Good Night My Love

I have to not turn away from what I know God wants me to do. I know but don’t know anymore. What do you want me to do Lord? Work with you, work for you, work in the city again. Love you, why can’t I respond better? I guess it won’t happen until I do whatever it is God’s wanting me to do. Stay close to God, don’t give up. Believe it’s possible, know it can happen. Stay steady. Keep focused. Much Love to you My Love. Be blessed and know that you are a blessing to everyone My Love.

Happy 4th of July - Demand Justice/Demand Peace
Romans 1:11
I long to see you so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to make you strong-that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith

I long to see you. Thank God for everything. I pray to have a harvest that God has for me. I am loved and my best days are yet to come. I thank God for my blessings. I know life will get better, but for now I will walk by faith and not by sight. Be blessed and be a blessing to someone My Love.

Good Night My Love

Ephesians 3:16-19
16 I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, 17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, 18 may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, 19 and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.

I pray that my faith is strong and enduring. I want Christ to dwell in my heart through faith. Faithfulness in Christ. I am rooted and established in LOVE. God’s Love is amazing. God’s power is awesome. I’m glad that I can worship the Lord and know that I am loved. I pray that God will help me find a full time job, again,  trade my car in for a new one, this car is just too scary to drive after visiting the dealer to get a factory recall done on the airbag. I’m sure it’s just dealer talking to get me to buy a new car but I’m also looking at an 8 yr old car with 176,000 miles. It’s coming around to the big repairs and replacements. God is watching and I pray that I will not have the timing belt and other stuff happen that they said needs to be seriously considered. I’m truly riding on faith. These are the things that you turn over to God. My Love, My Love I pray that all will go well for us. Please stay in love. Good Night and be blessed.

Good Morning My Love

God Bless you today. Thank you Jesus for today. I took my car in to the dealer this morning for a recall replacement of the airbags. I should have done it long ago. Now that I have so much time on my hands I can get some things done that I need to do for myself. Have a blessed day today and I’m. remembering you love me as I love you. Be blessed and be a blessing to someone My Love.

Good Night My Love

Matthew 15:10-11

10 Jesus called the crowd to him and said, “Listen and understand. 11 What goes into someone’s mouth does not defile them, but what comes out of their mouth, that is what defiles them.”

Listen and understand. I am very interested in what words come from our mouth. I want to talk to you. I keep you close in my heart. I walk by faith and not by sight. I know Jesus loves me and the Holy Spirit is with me. I love you and pray that you keep loving me. I can’t be the only one believing that we have a future, I choose to believe that you believe that too. Be blessed and be a blessing to someone My Love.
