the thought of the day

I AM A CHILD OF GOD, BORN BY GRACE THROUGH FAITH; 
WHO DREAMS DREAMS AND PLAYS IN THE RAIN. 
ALL THE WHILE, LISTENING TO THE SOUND OF 
THE FATHER'S VOICE IN MY HEART.

I AM A WOMAN. 
I AM ECLECTIC, PASSIONATE, MYSTERIOUS, WILD, GENTLE, LOVING & DEVOTED.

I ENJOY CURLING UP WITH A GOOD BOOK BY THE LAKE. 
I ENJOY SITTING BY A CRACKLING FIRE AND DRINKING HOT COCO.
 I ENJOY LAYING IN AN OPEN FIELD AND SEEING WHAT SHAPES THE CLOUDS MAKE. I SMILE WHEN GOD MAKES A FUNNY ONE JUST FOR ME. 
I OFTEN GAZE UP AT THE MOON AND THE STARS. 
I AM FILLED WITH AWE AT HOW AMAZING GOD IS AND THAT HE, WHO FASHIONED ALL THINGS, LOVES ME WITH AN EVERLASTING LOVE.

the fear


"He will shield you with his wings" 
- Pslam 91:4. 

Trade all your fears for faith in Him, 

no matter what kind of fear it may be.

the heart

it's remarkable how much love a heart can hold.

it's also amazing how much pain it can carry.

the heart can survive through some of the most traumatic experiences.

it still fights to stay alive. 

it's the life line. 

you might think that your heart is just another working organ inside your body, 
but it is so much more.

it is an organ of fire. 

with every beat, which is generally 70-80 beats per minute, it is constantly supplying blood and oxygen to all parts of the body, even the brain, which is another fascinating organ.

"The brain gives the heart it's sight. The heart gives the brain its vision."

it is pumping, pulling, fueling, contracting, expanding and distributing the proper ratio of vital materials that our bodies need to function. 
why so much passion?

without it our bodies would shut down and die.

the heart works with an "all or nothing" mentality. Each time it contracts it uses all it's force, barely resting before it surges more blood and oxygen through our veins.

the Right and Left Atrium work in perfect harmony to nourish every cell within our body.

it's amazing!


we serve an awesome God, who created all things. 
we are fearfully and wonderfully made.

thank you Lord, for making me so amazingly complex.

only You know my heart. it is Yours. it is on fire for You.
my heart overflows with love for you and you shed your blood for my soul.

the greatest measurement of love is sacrifice. 

and when there is heartache, the heart is the only broken instrument that can still work.

 God is closest to those who have broken hearts. He is the only one who can heal them.
and even when we break God's heart. He loves us, again, and again, and again. 

Thank God, for you unconditional love.
