Forty-Five Verses: Taught Well

There are people that come and go in your life, and then there are some, that stick close and they teach you along the way. Always pointing you to the ways of God. Always there when you need them and many times call before you do, because they just know something is going on. Always get the prayer request, pray, then follow up for the praise report. Consistent.  Always giving insight and understanding on your personal relationship with Jesus. Never compromising the truth. Seeing joy in all circumstances and living it out. That the Lord would give me such a gift in these two people for over fifteen years now...no words can describe my love and respect for them and their ministry, Jesus Christ the Better Way.
Bundled up and ready to go after prayer service!

You really never know what God has planned when He puts you places. Deborah and I worked together in a nursing home years ago and here we are! She and Cliff have taught this girl a whole lot about spiritual warfare, discernment and deliverance.... I didn't have a clue. And prayer...wow...you have never experienced anything like it, taught me that too. I have said before, if you know me for very long....you will hear about them, usually in the same sentence with what the Lord is doing. For years, Deborah and I would talk on the phone and she would be talking (teaching really) and I was just a taking notes...getting it all down! I would study them after we got off the phone. I still have all of them. And just like today...I am still taking notes. And always will. Writing it down helps me learn. Anyway, this is a shout out to the strongest, most courageous, full of God's love people I know...you have influenced my life and therefore my family's life for the better!!

 I am thankful to be a partner in Jesus Christ the Better Way Ministry. We meet in Tarrant, AL on the first Saturday of the month at noon, and there has been a service added on that first Sunday at 4:00 and then the third Sunday at 4:00. Join us anytime! So funny that the kids will ask me sometimes "is this the third Sunday" and I know they are asking if I am heading to Tarrant that afternoon. LOL. If you need the address please send me an email or text.

Thanks for reading! If you don't have a mentor, begin to pray and ask the Lord for guidance. I honestly do not know where I would be if I had not had Deborah and Cliff alongside me all these years. In the Spirit, fighting battles, experiencing victory and joy. Peace and Joy. Thank you Lord, I have been taught well. For your Glory. To give you the praise for it!

Day 22/45 Today's Verse..
"Now thanks be unto God, which causes us to triumph in Christ, and makes manifest the savior of his knowledge by us in every place." 2 Corinthians 2:14

Blessings,

Get Your House in Order: Cancer Awareness & Giveaway

Image
“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 ...

8 Years Cancer Free: Living Life Intentionally and Boldly

Image
"People need more than bread for their life;  they must feed on every word of God." Matthew 4:4 8 Years CANCER FREE  Cancer is brutal but CHRIST IS BOUNDLESS!  I remember this 26th day of January every year as a marker in my life! An encounter with the Lord, face to face and truly beginning to live a life surrendered to His plan, not mine. For the past year I have revisited some of the same quietness I experienced while going through the cancer process. Sitting at His feet. Leaning in closer. Close enough to hear Him whisper the next step. Sitting still, unable to move beyond the written word on the page speaking to me right where I was. And I needed the time with Him. I needed less time with other things. I wanted to make my home with Him. "Jesus answered him, "Those who love me will keep my word, and my Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them." John 14:23 Through it all, there has been so much freedom in l...

Within

"God is within her, she will not fall; God will help her at break of day." Psalm 46:5 Good morning! It has been a few days, yet I am still in Psalm 46, still on a twenty-one day journey. I laugh at how literal I really am. This is day eleven and I am so wanting to look and see how many posts I have written, I felt sure I would write one a day! My eyes landed on this verse yesterday "If the Lord delights in a man's way, he makes his steps firm." Psalm 37:23 and was light a bolt of lightning! You see, I am learning, that when you walk by faith and not by sight, things just, quite frankly, don't make sense. Hmmm, great revelation at 5:15 am huh? So simple, but Lord, thank you for the reminder. Why do I get so caught up in the details that I miss the point, and maybe miss the lesson. HE is WITHIN me (and you) and I will not fall! I will stumble, will make mistakes, but when I am fully surrendered (over and over) to Him, my steps have to be firm. Because He doe...
