GOD IS ON THE MOVE!

Today I am thanking God for his awesome Grace and his Mercy. He has been faithful to me, and is always faithful to his WORD. God is not a man that he should lie. I have been on purpose, and observing many things since November. Awesome, awesome, and awesome. Here are a few things that God has said and showed me. He is swiftly doing a GREAT thing in my life. Not because I am so good, not because I deserve it JUST because he loves me. He has seen my love for him and for others and said I want you to have my heart, and my mind and see things as I see it but you will not be able to process it through your emotions and that has been so true.

What I have learned on this journey is this. Lord, I am sorry for ever taking you for granted, for treating you like some genie in a bottle. For always telling you what I need, what I want and never, EVER asking you what I can do for you. It is amazing when we are going through we think we are the only ones that are going through. Well, it is unacceptable to always be on the receiving end of GRACE, and never stopping to really realize.....it is not all about you. LOOK at Jesus on the cross, look at what they did to him, WHO are we with our messed up, low down, no good wretched selves. Thank you Lord for correction, for chastisement, and for forgiveness. I have come to realize that forgiveness does not always mean reconciliation or association (thanks Carrie), but it means casting our cares on you because you care for us. So, Lord forgive those who have despite fully used me when all I tried to do was help. Forgive those who continue to talk about me cause they don't understand my story. Forgive those who don't understand that I love you more than I love anything or anybody. Forgive them for they know not what they do.

Daddy, I am excited about what you are doing. The possibilities are endless. Barbara with Boldness not afraid to get what God has for me, not afraid to hear what God has to say. I love because he first loved me, I call because he has put it on my heart, I help because he has spoke to me and said, give so and so, and say thus said. I look at Jesus on the cross and  tonight I am saying "Lord what can I do for you?"

Who loves ya!

WE do!
