it is more than just a happy holiday season of food and gifts and family.

it is a celebration of God entering our world so that we could be called His own.

Unto Us a Child is Born2

Am wishing you a merry christmas, an awesome new year 2013. I really have no idea what direction this blog will go, I suspect changes are underway……..see you on the other side!!

a reminder

I went on a long drive with friends over the weekend. On the way back, I took this pic from a moving car with tinted windows with a little sony camera and my amateur hands. Yep, amazed me too!

It was a much needed reminder of the One who with His own hands spread out the heavens and marshalled the starry hosts [isaiah 45:12].

Relax. He holds your future in those hands.

The bottom line

Journal entry Dec 6th 2012

I have so many questions in my heart right now, concerning so many things…..but when I woke up this morning there was one firm word in my heart: trust.

It all boils down to trust.

Do I trust God to come through for me?

Do I trust Him to see my heart and answer what I truly need and not just what I think I want?

Do I believe that He will carry me through the valley and beyond?

Or will I, as I often do, try to figure stuff out in my own understanding? Will I try to make my own alternate ending to my story?

Will I allow fear to rule my heart?

If I truly trust, I cannot be afraid.
If I truly keep my eyes on Him alone, I cannot be anxious.

When my hope is fixed in Jesus, it shows.

It shows in a calm confident heart that knows He is God and trusts in Him.

As one of my fav bloggers says, God is crazy faithful.

And that, my friend, is the bottom line.
