Royal Crown Of true Royalty...

 

Are you wearing your crown today?

Some days you just feel like your hair will not fix right;

You just wake up on the wrong side of the bed...

The sun forgets to come out,

You can feel a large pit in your stomach...

You feel like crying for no reason?

Well, for your information so does half the women in your state!

Women have more days that we might feel a bit out of the loop;

Or just out of sorts...

But, we can know the very thing that makes us feel these feelings;

Is the very thing that allows us to have the womanly instinct that God gave us.

We have been given these raw emotions that once we allow God to

Temper them, we grow in insight and wisdom!

We are given so much influence and reign...

I can promise you this that when you have given a bit of advice;

To your children or other women; they may just one day use it!

To God be the Glory...

We are ruling whether we like it or not!

But,may I ask are you ruling in grace and love?

Do you hold and iron fist or a helping loving hand?

Do you wear your crown of authority with humility?

Or do you parade around like a Queen Bee;

Be careful you might get stung is what others may be thinking about you!

The crown of life;

Which is promised to those who love Him. James 1:12

Ruling your home is a great and noble calling!

Remember the hand that rocks the cradle, washes the dishes,

Cooks lovely meals, washes dirty sock, and rids her home of dust bunnies;

And sweeps the crumbs of Hansel and Gretel away;

Really does rule the world!

Just a friendly reminder that holding your hubby's arm when walking

makes your crown sit high upon your head!

Holding a kiss with your Husband  for 15 seconds.

Will ignite passion, and your crown will shine a bit brighter.

There is a crown we can wear that brings life to all that we encounter everyday!

We might not be able to see each others crowns,

Yet we can know those Queens that wear their crowns as the

 Royal Woman Of God...

Your crown one day will be placed at the Kings feet...

Visitation Or Habitation...

 

Visitation or Habitation

So many of us this time of year we take vacations;

We love getting away and seeing new sights

And hearing new sounds.

Visiting new things can spur us on and give us new insight.

What are some of the feelings you have while visiting?

I think they can range in many different feelings;

When we visit family, it can be emotional!

When it is a new city, we may feel free or maybe out of place.

Sometimes I think we need a good dose of different;

As we can get so same old, same old on everything.

One thing I have had the Lord speak to me about is this;

To be passionate about Him...

We are not called to just visit the Lord,

But rather clinging in a habitation with Him...

Everything is always moving;

Moving In

Moving Out

Moving About

Yet, when we desire more than a visitation, we need habitation!

Pray for more of His Presence...

Allow Him to fill every crack and crevice.

Have you allowed some other love to move in;

And God was pushed aside?

Take these days of rest and sunshine R&R

And draw close to the Lord!

Allow Him to open your eyes and heart to His leading...

See What the Lord has done...

See what He wants you to be...

Habitation is the only place to be!

Under Cover...

God is so good!

He makes provision for His sheep...

He covers us with His Word and His Annointing

Anointing means smeared (covered)

I am going to a women's conference that will give me a fresh word!

Black or White

He covers us all when we make Him our great shepherd...

Sometimes we can change things up just a bit and get a whole new perspective.

Every year for many years I have gone to this women's conference.

I am so excited...

I just can't hide it...

He's got control and I think I like it!!

Praying for all of you ladies that stop by to be inspired and encouraged!

You Go Girl...

Here is a word that blessed my heart as I know it was for this season; Hope you are blessed!

During wars, people look for places of safety to hide under cover where they cannot be harmed by the weapons of their enemies. We are in Christ and children of God therefore we are under cover at all times. No weapons formed against us will prosper because we dwell under the shadow of the Almighty.

A way of receiving an anointing originated with the ancient shepherds. Lice and other insects would get into the wool of sheep. When they got near the sheep's head, they could burrow into the sheep's ears and kill the sheep. To prevent this from happening, shepherds poured oil on the sheep's head. This oil made the wool too slippery for insects to get near the sheep's ears and they would slide off. Of this, anointing with oil became symbolic of blessings, protection and empowerment.

We can trust the precious presence of the Spirit of Christ to make our enemies flee. The battle truly is the Lord's and His mantle is upon us to protect us from every opposition. Whenever we feel threatened let us dwell under cover with confidence and total rest in our Comforter, the Holy Spirit. We can wrap ourselves in Him and watch the enemy's attacks slip off, from glory to glory!

Hear His Voice In The Rushing Waters...

His Voice Is Like Many Rushing Waters...

Feeling the breeze upon the land, times of cleansing and refreshment.

Being set apart can seem like a lonely place;

But He is the one who has called you to this place of solitary.

Lay back against Him and breath...

Rushing in those days of raising our children;
Days of hurry and scurry with little ones may be over;
But we still have a place that has been set apart for this very season.

We are the only ones who can fill these shoes and walk this way!
I can sense that my path in some ways seems more narrow...
Yet, I feel like my horizons has widened;

God can never be fitted into a one size fits all box dear ones;

He fills every droplet of water that flows into the ocean;
He cannot be contained!

Allow Him to fill your heart and hours and days,
We can with no guilt now enjoy a quiet spell of reading a good book.
We can eat a late supper and
 Listen to the frogs singing after a soaking rain.

We can stop and watch the sun set into another day into the other side
of  this wide and wonderful world.
 Where another women's day is just starting.

We can and will complete our journey and calling with great
Expectations and fulfillment, because He is the fountain that is never dry!

Drink from His water of truth and continue to drink;
You have heard the saying you can lead a horse to water,
But you can't make him drink.

Well, God is guiding you to the stream;
So drink dear ones, for His cup never runs dry...

These days and season is a part of your reward!
Do not allow the enemy to make you feel like you have no place,
Or that your job is finished;
Jesus never said anything about retirement...
We  can now have more calm and composure.
Slow and steady with assured steps in knowing that He is
Leading you...
You dear ones have been planted by a stream and your roots have grown deep!
You will continue to bear fruit even in your old age...

Strong Coffee Or Weak Tea...

Needing some really strong coffee...

Sometimes we just need a really strong word!

Wake up and smell the coffee is a saying that must mean something;

Right??

I was away for a long time and we had strong coffee every morning.

When I got back home, I made me my usual cup of hot tea;

It tasted like water!

So this morning I will have the real stuff;

Rich dark color and the scent is heavenly.

Coffee beans from Guatemala.

Just for the record, I feel that I do take time to smell the coffee!

But I have just entered a season that is unfamiliar to me;

Maybe it was the trip that we took that allowed me to see many things

In a new light; It was not bad just different.

The Lord has been reminding me of my calling;

And showing me that when I do not function in that I feel flat.

Like a weak cup of tea....

After leaving on a jet plane, seeing childhood places, I realized

A few things!

Everything changes...

Except my calling!

Pour me a cup of some strong Java;

And place a hearty meal before me;

I am no wimp and I will receive a strong word from the Lord!

It is time to change a few things up around here!!

Do you feel that you are in a season of change?

Seek the Lord while He is yet to be found...

He will sit and dine with you;

He says He will show you through the Holy Spirit.

What is yet to come...

The future is not an entire mystery!

Because God knows it all!

The end from the beginning...

Strong word in the Lord and coffee is what I will be serving today!

Care to join me?
