On my knees

Praise the Lord!!! My heart is full of thankfulness and Praises! God is Love. “Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever.”
‭‭Psalm‬ ‭136‬:‭1‬ ‭ESV‬‬

I delight in God’s ways for my life. I desire His heart desire that no one would be lost but all people would fully know God’s love for them and receive the gift of salvation through God’s one and only Son Jesus!

I remember the day my husband and I felt stuck in 2004 after my fourth child was born! On our knees we prayed asking God to teach us His ways, so we can teach our children! “Teach me your way, O Lord, that I may walk in your truth; unite my heart to fear your name. I give thanks to you, O Lord my God, with my whole heart, and I will glorify your name forever. For great is your steadfast love toward me; you have delivered my soul from the depths of Sheol.” Psalm‬ ‭86‬:‭11‬-‭13‬ ‭ESV‬‬

We did not know how to do this on our own. We knew we loved Jesus and listened to Scripture filled music but knew it wasn’t enough! We wanted to follow God’s ways but we were surrounded with the wrong ways and examples. I’m so thankful with all my heart for God’s Love, Mercy, Grace, and His Faithfulness! As I read Scripture today, Jeremiah 29:13 NIV, “You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.” I remember singing praises everyday listening to scripture in songs and hymns and praying. As I continue to read the Bible, I didn’t realize at the time when I was younger I was meditating on God’s words day and night and even my children did too! I hungered and thirst for more of God daily as His word filled my heart and mind because they were in each song. “O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water. So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary, beholding your power and glory. Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you. So I will bless you as long as I live; in your name I will lift up my hands.”
‭‭Psalm‬ ‭63‬:‭1‬-‭4‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Soon our prayers led us to our church family today! I’m thankful for our sisters and brothers in Christ and how all of us are rooted and established in God’s love grow together, where God Spiritually knitting all of us together all over the world in Unity giving God endless Praise forever! Amen!

I will soon start again writing my journey. So many of my friends have said I need to write. I’ve stopped for awhile but God has placed it on my heart to start. I pray God guide me in the process. God Bless all of you! ❤️

One of the Song I listened too around 2004. Desert Rose

Song by White Heart

OverviewLyricsVideosListen

Lost in a windswept land
In the world of shifting sand
A fragile flower stands apart
There in that barren ground
Feel like the only one
Tryin’ to serve You with all your heart

And you wonder, wonder
Can ya last much longer?
This cloud you are under
Will it cover you?

Desert Rose (Desert Rose)
Dontcha worry, don’t be lonely
Heaven knows, Heaven knows
In a dry and weary land a flower grows
His Desert Rose
His Desert Rose

Sometimes holiness can seem like emptiness
When ya feel the whole world’s laughin’ eyes
If it’s a lonely day, know your on the Father’s wave
He will hear you when ya cry

And He will hold you, hold you
Your Father will hold you
He will love you, love you
For the things ya do

Desert Rose (Desert Rose)
Dontcha worry, don’t be lonely
Heaven knows, Heaven knows
In a dry and weary land a flower grows
His Desert Rose
His Desert Rose
His Desert Rose

Dontcha worry, don’t be lonely
Heaven knows, Heaven knows
In a dry and weary land a flower grows
His Desert Rose
His Desert Rose

Don’t be lonely, don’t be lonely
(Desert Rose)
Dontcha worry
(Desert Rose)
Dontcha know He’ll be with you?
(Heaven knows, Heaven knows)
He will hold your fragile heart
O Desert Rose
