beautiful SAVIOR!

Isaiah 55

"Come ALL you who are thirsty, come to the waters, and you who have no money, come , buy, eat. Come, buy wine and milk without money and without cost. Why spend money on what is not bread and your labor on what does not satisfy? Listen, listen to me and eat what is good, and your soul will delight in the richest of fare. Give ear and come to me; hear me, that your soul may live. I will make an EVERLASTING covenant with you, my faithful love promised to David...."

I wonder if I really ever embrace all that God invites me to when I enter into the family of GOD? Am I really taking advantage of all that Christ is trying to give me?
I had a vision today and I just saw God with his hands overflowing with GIFTS...of all shapes and sizes...and repeating the words, Just take it, Just take it.
I think that God has so much for all of us......and all we have to do is receive it...but for some reason we are stifled or we are fearful or we are convinced what he is trying to offer us is not really for us....BUT do you not know that GOD died for you.....Alice, George, Paul, John, Tim, Luke, Stacy, Amy.....KRISSY....really he did? He died for each of us so that we may live, and live the most abundant and wonderful lives possible. I know it is the delight of his heart to have each of HIS children walking in the truth....walking in a reality and identity that GOD has created for each of us...and not that our circumstances or own heart has created for us.
Something very strong on my heart is this......children of God....are you allowing Your creator to be present in your life....that he actually motivates the steps that you choose to take and walk each day....or dear child are you so burdened that you are walking a path alone..a path not designed for a child of God.....in fact it is a path created for the exact intention of keeping you off the intended path God has for you by the enemy. I am guilty of this eveyday....everyday I wake up and set my feet on the ground without first talking to my Father or without asking him to walk with me first. Lord Jesus forgive me for walking my own paths, deliberately or foolishly, and help me to walk closer to you....set my feet on the path that you desire for me....
Lord, I really see a lot of pain...recently in the eyes of your children, and it confuses me.....Lord do we not trust you...or do we not know you..I mean really know you....because I think that as your children if we really knew you we would not have so much pain! I think that we are fearful of you and what you have for us only because we do not really know your character....do we doubt you?

Lord you are so amazing, whenever I get a closer glimpse of you Lord I am so thankful for you...I just bathe myself in the salvation that you offer me.....oh Jesus you are so wonderful.....your love is so real and unconditional....and I apologize for taking things into my hands that are not mine to take into my hands. I surrender all to you Lord....in this moment and forever...because I know that abiding in your presence is all my heart was created to desire or need!

Lord help your children....help each one of them to feel deeply your love....and all that you are offering them.

We all have the wonderful opportunity to embrace a life that God intended for us.....a life that is so beautiful.....
Look at it this way.....a fork was created for a specific function.....it will never be a spoon or knife....it cannot ever fully function as either of these.....it will only be perfectly used as a fork....
we are all this way....we will not completely function....until we determine our shape..our God given shape and function/purpose......and then we will really LIVE AND BREATHE AND THRIVE AND DESIRE AND UNVEAL AND CELEBRATE AND AND AND AND......

May you experience a life....an abundant life...that you live in everyday that allow you to see HIS REALITY for you.....the reality of HIS LOVE HIS FORGIVENESS HIS FULLNESS HIS POWER HIS GRACE......... he has so much in store for you...for me Krissy....for all of us.....

I pray that I will embrace this more everyday...I am so thankful for you JESUS...thank you for walking next to me...I love you and thank you for being with me even in my weakness brokenness ugliness waywardness awkwarness selfishness carelessness .......everything! You are the best DADDY!

Dear friends, HE REALLY DOES LOVE YOU AND HE DESIRES YOU TO HAVE THE GREATEST LIFE POSSIBLE....he is always on your side as my beloved pastor charles niemann always tells the congregation!

Heres to the journey....Heres to life....the intended life...live in the reality of your father not in the hazziness of your former life! Amen. This is my prayer for my life, my family and all my dear friends! Brothers and sisters...lets do this together!
