.:Your.Heart.Is.Revealed:.

Your heart and who you are is revealed when the toughest of times has made its way into your life. Which is why I LOVE the story of Paul and Silas in prison! In Acts 16:16-40 we read about these two men who were, stripped, beaten, severely flogged.. then thrown into a prison cell and feet fastened in stocks. Stop for a moment and think about what your state of mind would be. Where many would blame God, or sit and complain about what happened…in agony be questioning God and His plans…  these two men prayed to God and sang hymns. Worship was their response to what was going on, not doubt, or worry, or fear.

In the most difficult time for them, their heart was revealed by their response to a situation. Their heart’s were still for God. They decided that worshiping and singing hymns to Him in that moment…was the best way to handle what was going on, it was necessary and the first thing they could think of. How many of you would be able to respond with prayer and worship after having the worst scenario thrown at you? Because of what they did, BOOM! Ground shook and the all the doors flew open and all the chains were broken off them and the other prisoners. How amazing that God would use the heart and worship of someone else to set others free. No matter what you face, Don’t allow anything to take away your love for God…and your worship!  You have no idea how powerful it truly is. Your story can bring freedom, your worship can break chains, your prayers are powerful that heaven invades! Never doubt the power of God in your life and what He can do in your situations. No matter how messy you think it is, He can still move in your circumstance and work a miracle. Believe.

Prayer:
God you are incredible, you are able to turn around our situations… you are able to take a mess bring healing and freedom. We pray that you would invade our hearts, and cause our heart to always to love you NO MATTER WHAT WE FACE. In our happiest and in hardest of times… be the center, be the joy and strength of our heart! amen! [Psalm 73:26]

.Keep Loving.

[My FB status from 5.9.13]

Sometimes it’s VERY DIFFICULT to love people that keep hurting you… and sometimes those people aren’t hurting you intentionally but they have some deep rooted issues that cause them to act and think a certain way. Continue to love them and pray for them. Declare that breakthrough is coming. I know, don’t we wish it came years ago for them? Yes! But don’t give up on the ones you love… when they are at their low and worst… that’s when they need your love the most  plus, we’re not perfect either… we all need some more work and growing from time to time ♥♡

Prayer:
Lord, you KNOW how difficult it is for us to LOVE people unconditionally… especially those close to our hearts. God please help us stretch out grace to them.. and to not give up on them… when they need us most.. I pray our hearts be moved to draw closer to them and not push them away. Your love casts out all fear… I pray your love would consume those close to us.. because we loved on them non-stop! amen!
