Heartbeat

Psalm 126:5 NIV – Those who cry while they plant will joyfully sing while they harvest. The person who goes out weeping, carrying his bag of seed, will come home singing, carrying his bundles of grain.

God has promised to replace our tears with joy and our weeping with singing. Our job is to remain loyal in our obligations. Whatever responsibilities that God has entrusted to us, may we run our race whole-heartedly and never give in to weariness.

Trust and believe that God appreciates our willingness to complete those small tasks. Your current assignment may seem insignificant, but in due time, God will multiply your efforts and your faith will produce a harvest.

It may be rough going for you at the moment and you may feel like your current assignment is lasting a long time, but never has God forsaken those who love him! In fact, the word says that your name is written in the palm of his hand! We are reassured by God’s word that we are the apple of his eye and I firmly believe that he is concerned about every aspect of our lives.

Do you remember in the book of Genesis when God came down from Heaven to see about Adam and he asked that one simple question, “Where are you?”

Answer God and let him know where you are today. Make a decision to dedicate every waking moment of your day to God and watch him move in your life. Whatever concerns you, concerns God.

Personal Reflection:

During my quiet time, when all is still and my mind isn’t racing, I love to sit and listen to the sound of my heart beat… “thump thump”, “thump thump”, “thump thump”. Those thumps are soon replaced with the phrase…”go God”, “go God”, “go God”

Each time I repeat this phrase I am humbled because God loves me so much and I am reminded by every heartbeat that God is always with me, he is always in control and I am reassured in the fact that everything that I am and will ever be is all because of his love for me.

I pray that you find encouragement in each heartbeat.

Much Love,

Make Glad the City of God

Psalm 46:4-5 There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy place where the most high dwells. God is within her, she will not fall; God will help her at break of day.

The streams of a river are often affected by the circumstances around them. Sometimes the waters are peaceful and still, while at other times they’re agitated and disrupted.

Such are our lives.

In one instant everything seems to be going our way and with our very next breath things can take a drastic change.

The great part about our ever-changing situations is that nothing takes God by surprise. He knows when we’re up and he knows when we are feeling down on ourselves. It’s in those times that God is pleased when we put our complete trust in him.

Of course he knows our struggles. He understands our fears and he has compassion over our heart breaks.

Make God glad by trusting him.

He has promised to keep you from falling and to present you as faultless.

Can you imagine being faultless before our God who dwells in the Most High Place?

See yourself as God sees you. Your streams make you exactly who you are supposed to be for such a time as this!

Keep flowing, keep trusting and keep believing!

Much Love,

SuGa

Women’s History Month

Women’s  History Month had its origins as a national celebration in 1981 when Congress  passed Pub. L. 97-28 which authorized and requested the President to proclaim  the week beginning March 7, 1982 as “Women’s History Week.”  Throughout  the next five years, Congress continued to pass joint resolutions designating a  week in March as “Women’s History Week.”  In 1987 after being  petitioned by the National Women’s History Project, Congress passed Pub. L.  100-9 which designated the month of March 1987 as “Women’s History  Month.”

Celebrate the women in your life or better yet…women celebrate for yourself!   Perfect time to repost this poem….

Recognize, Inspired by:

Genesis Chapter 29:17 Leah had weak eyes, but Rachel had a lovely figure and was beautiful.

A Poem for Leah

Recognize

Do you not know? Have you not heard?

God is the final word.

And his lasting decree spoken over me

A woman of radiance, love and beauty

Established by the power released from His right hand

Unlocked potential to achieve more than most can

For my reach is far greater than many have seen

Secure in myself with high self-esteem

My worth holds more value than rubies or gems

Talented and confident, liberated from within

Community is important, I encourage those in need

To live a better life and my advice I pray they heed

Live up to your potential and never settle for less than best

Show up for every challenge and deliver nothing less

Offer all you have to give and your dreams will be fulfilled

Build your life on God’s foundation and your future will be sealed

Accept the blessing of His promise and make an oath to live His way

Grasp the beauty in each moment and always seize the day!
