Exceedingly Abundantly

"Unto him that is able to do
exceedingly abundantly
above all that we ask or think."
Ephesians 3:20

Hey folks! Day five of "forty posts in forty days"!Let me begin tonight with a con..fess..ion, whew did I ever get tested on yesterday's post..Peace..and all day..I kept saying "hold my peace, Lord." He did but my flesh sure did feel like it was running a marathon..haha! And to top it off, It began right before I published last night..no picture would surface. So the one to the right...yea, it showed up on my phone at 1:00 am (no I was not awake). Okay, test taken, great day of worship amidst the warfare, the Lord tells us to expect that anyway and He will be with us. It is, our life that is, about Him. He is the peace, the joy, love, the hope. Jesus Christ.

"He makes wars to cease to the end of the earth; He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two; He burns the chariot with fire." Psalm 46:9

and I must include the next verse..."Be still and know that I am God." Psalm 46:10

Have a bright night...yes, too much Christmas decorating! And can you believe that I have been writing at night? There's something to these forty days...for me it's an offering to the Lord, whatever, however He chooses to lead me I will go! Thank you Jesus for your redeeming love and the comfort that comes from knowing that YOU are God and YOU are able...exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think. Glory to your Name. Amen. Good night!
Blessings,
Suzanne

Get Your House in Order: Cancer Awareness & Giveaway

“He will command His angels concerning you to guard you carefully.” Luke 4:10 A few weeks ago I was reminded that September is Blood Cancer Awareness Month (Leukemia and Lymphoma) and encouraged me to use my blog to help raise awareness. I am always willing to give a voice to those fighting and winning against cancer. To me cancer never wins. I will never understand the painful process or the impact and loss it causes but I rest in knowing that...ONE DAY there will be no more cancer. Period. You know how sometimes you read a blog or a book about someone's life and you are just blown away with their story? You connect with so many parts of their lives and you gain insight and inspiration immediately. As was the case with the story, art and website of Patience Brewster , you must take a look for yourself at their page! Patience Brewster reached out to me about writing about a post, after reading some of my cancer stories on Blessings, Suzanne. Patience designs Christmas

On Your Mark

"I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith." 2 Timothy 4:7 While walking on my everyday path and praying about the upcoming Race for the Cure, that I plan to RUN this year, my eyes fell right upon this cross. (picture to the left). I am sure if any of my neighbors were looking out their window it was a sight to see me staring at the ground and saying "only You, God" (and likely very loudly, due to the fact that I had my earbuds in and music blaring)! Two pieces of pine straw put perfectly together to form the cross on the road. What a sweet reminder of God's love! After I snapped a picture, I began to pick up the pace a bit and RUN. Baby steps. My faith in myself had been renewed that I was reminded to look to Jesus to help me run this race. The problem is I don't like to run. I never have, walking is just fine with me...smile! To be honest, I have never challenged myself to do so. So, this is the year! It's my

Get Your House In Order: Sunday Scripture

Image
"So I have looked for You in the sanctuary,  To see Your power and glory. Psalm 63:2 I read these two verses to Luke this morning, he was the first one up, besides me. It was a great opportunity to tell him how I read the  reference verses that go along with the verses each day. We looked up the verses and read them as well. He thought that was cool (his words). We had a brief moment of discussion and then he moved on. We don't normally get that morning time together...what a blessing! Have a wonderful Sunday!
