I read your words of life today they made me stop and ponder<\/h6>\n
Is there hidden sin within my heart?<\/em><\/h6>\n
Lord, help me so I do not wander.<\/h6>\n
Am I being kind and thankful for all that you have done?<\/h6>\n
Am I setting the right example?<\/h6>\n
Do I criticize and complain, do I take your name in vain<\/h6>\n
Is my heart pure before you Lord, or do I bring you shame?<\/h6>\n
Help me Lord.<\/h6>\n
I don\u2019t want to point fingers or accuse anyone of blame\u2026<\/h6>\n
Are my ways pleasing to you Lord?<\/h6>\n
If someone needed help, would I welcome them in, or turn them from my door?<\/h6>\n
Do others see you, in me, Lord?<\/h6>\n
When troubles come my way, is faith alive and shining bright, morning, noon and night?<\/h6>\n
Do I offer a drink of water to a dry and thirsty soul\u2026?<\/h6>\n
Do I offer them a place to sleep and fill their empty bowl\u2026?<\/h6>\n
The orphan and the widow Lord, let me, their servant be<\/h6>\n
So that they will know it\u2019s you Jesus, living inside of me\u2026<\/h6>\n
<\/h6>\n
Child I hear your honesty\u2026<\/em><\/h6>\n
And when you praise and dance for me, it thrills me through and through<\/em><\/h6>\n
There are not many that I can say, has a heart like you do\u2026<\/em><\/h6>\n
You know the way you feel,<\/em><\/h6>\n
Watching your grandbabies play, sing and dance, the way they are so free<\/em><\/h6>\n
How it brings you joy and happiness just to witness this\u2026<\/em><\/h6>\n
Pure peace and exuberant bliss\u2026<\/em><\/h6>\n
Like your heart will explode in wonderfulness\u2026<\/em><\/h6>\n
Child, you do this for me<\/em><\/h6>\n
Every time you lift your hands to pray<\/em><\/h6>\n
Every time you speak my name and say<\/em><\/h6>\n
\u201cJesus I love you\u2026\u201d<\/em><\/h6>\n

 <\/p>\n

My heart melts with joy and complete and utter delight\u2026<\/em><\/h6>\n
A pure heart with loving kindness makes heaven bright\u2026<\/em><\/h6>\n
The stars, light-up and the Moon rejoice, when mine are faithful and true\u2026<\/em><\/h6>\n
The Father sings and the Holy Ghost brings heaven down to those in tune\u2026<\/em><\/h6>\n
With the angels holy choir they make music and a sweet melody\u2026<\/em><\/h6>\n
When you speak words of life in my name\u2026we become one-and-the-same\u2026<\/em><\/h6>\n
Never doubt sweet child of mine, for we are one of a kind\u2026<\/em><\/h6>\n
I\u2019ve chosen you because your heart and mine are intertwined\u2026<\/em><\/h6>\n
\u00a0<\/em><\/h6>\n
That day long ago when I died upon the tree<\/em><\/h6>\n
Buried in the rich man\u2019s tomb<\/em><\/h6>\n
Rose for all to see<\/em><\/h6>\n
Your sins were all forgiven<\/em><\/h6>\n
When you opened your heart to me\u2026<\/em><\/h6>\n
And on the day of Pentecost,<\/em><\/h6>\n
My promise gave you the power to stay free<\/em><\/h6>\n
To love and give and teach and preach for all who will obey<\/em><\/h6>\n
Keep your heart pure and clean<\/em><\/h6>\n
Holy Spirit will guide your way<\/em><\/h6>\n
I love you child, it blesses me when\u00a0you\u00a0open your heart to pray\u2026<\/em><\/h6>\n
Humility brings honor; and life when you obey!<\/em><\/h6>\n
I rejoice over you with singing\u2026you are my delight and shining star!<\/em><\/h6>\n
A priceless treasure\u2026<\/em>\u00a0<\/em><\/h6>\n

I had a bout with vertigo yesterday and vegged out for most of the day…today it is better. I used the time to do some reading and praying and pondering some things.
\n<\/span><\/h6>\n<\/div>\n
Today as I talked to the Lord I did as I always do I just talked honestly with him and some times he answers and some times there’s just a comfortable silence. We have an understanding it’s perfectly fine. Like two friends who can sit silently together without saying a word but enjoying each others company. That’s the kind of relationship I have with my friend Jesus. No disrespect I know who he is…
\n<\/span><\/div>\n
\n
But today I needed him to hear me and I needed to hear him…and before I could even finish talking the Holy Spirit began telling me what I a delight I was to him…he was so awesome…he said, He loved the way I danced before him like a little child and how it delighted him when I talked openly and free…he said, “You know how you are thrilled when your grandchildren dance and sing and play without inhibitions with a pure heart…that is the same way I feel when you are free with me…” all I could do is cry like a baby…the intimacy of his words cleansing me and giving me total assurance that I am his…God is so Amazing… He wants it to be that way with all his children…<3 I want to bring Him that kind of love and joy all the time!!!<\/span><\/h6>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
