‘She is a breath of the Power of God.’
Isaiah 40:8
The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God remains forever.
The fire in your heart is dwindling. I see your passion, your desire. My eyes adore you and I can’t take my eyes off you. Your soul, heart and mind are calling. Set, your heart on fire, sing a new song to the LORD, and spread his words. The word is alive and will live on forever. The word became flesh and is living amongst us. We saw his glory, we all know of his glory and isn’t it ironic that his glory is to be found in suffering and humiliation. However, the word is also full of grace and truth. So, rejoice! ‘Sing psalms to the Lord with the harp, with the sound of music, with trumpets and the sound of the horn, acclaim the King, the Lord. Psalm 97:5-6
I like this quote from Augustine of Hippo,
“Come, Lord, stir us up and call us back, kindle and seize us. Be our
fire and our sweetness. Let us love, let us run.”
I know this world can sometimes bring us down and I am not going to lie, knowing what happens within my Church, Parish or any Christian church, can be discouraging and I honestly have no more words, no one ever changes or grows in themselves or in Christ. I pray though and I always keep my faith and hope strong for maybe one day soon a miracle will happen. So I have a message, If you feel persecuted, imprisoned, injustice, not good enough, or not worthy all because of Jesus Christ, our Lord, God’s name, remember, you don’t have to prepare your defense, because he, himself will give us an eloquence and a wisdom that our opponents will not see coming. Our endurance and perseverance will win our lives.
You are invited, you are ready and it’s your time. You never have to be anyone but yourself because it is time to be who we feel we are. Who are we though? Are we an Apostle, Prophet, Evangelist, Pastor or Teacher? Whoever, we feel God our creator calls us to be, we are to work together in unity to build up the ‘Body of Christ,’ we are not called to tear the ‘Body of Christ,’ down, but to build it up and set hearts, souls and minds on fire.
Women of Faith and Hope, the word became flesh when Jesus was born in a manger, God spoke through Jesus for us to know him, to love him, to know the truth and to know he is the way and the life. Rejoice!
God Bless Always
I hope you are all having a great week. It was the last Sisterhood for the year, and it was an amazing celebration. I will be going along to it next year and I invite you all to come or to seek another Sisterhood closer to your home. It’s so nice to be able to talk and listen and share my faith and hopes in a lively way. Even though my dream would be to bring this to my own Parish because it fits with their vision, bringing people to Christ, changing lives. Unfortunately, it’s probably known has a crazy idea and I can only hope that maybe one day soon, because so many women need support, encouragement. Compassion, understanding, love and something to look forward to every week, making a commitment to themselves because life is so precious.
