Me...

Okay so today is just Weds. Hump day, middle whatever you want to call it. It is just Wednesday. I am blessed, but... Yes there is that ugly word. Why can I not just be blessed? Why must I add BUT? I want to get to the place where I can rest in my Lord. Know He has seen today, tomorrow and tomorrow ... I am just not "feeling" blessed. I know that is such a women thing, but it is true. Once again I am waring in my mind, praying for the mind of Christ to take hold in my human mind.

I am FREE

"When I am free from ambition, I am free to serve with a joyful heart.

When I am free from selfishness, I am free from irritation.

When I am free from jealousy, I am free to rejoice in the good of another.

When I am free from judgment, I am free to pray from a pure heart.

When I am free from expectation, I am free to enjoy whatever comes.

When I am freed from controlling others, I am free to see the miraculous.

When I am truly free, I will see the Kingdom of God in my life.

That is what I want to see –the Kingdom of God come in my life. What is that going to take? It's going to take tearing free from my own selfish thoughts and feelings. It's going to take looking at things from God's perspective. It's going to take God's help. In order to be free, I have to be free of me.

Thanks! Lynn Cowell


Father, when I don't get my "to do" list done, I am irritated and frustrated. When I am tired and one more person needs me, I feel angry and annoyed. Only You can free me of me, Jesus. I give You permission to do it! In Your powerful Name, Amen."

Trust

Malachi 3:10 (NIV)
10 Bring the whole tithe into the storehouse, that there may be food in my house. Test me in this,” says the LORD Almighty, “and see if I will not throw open the floodgates of heaven and pour out so much blessing that there will not be room enough to store it.
