Praise the Lord!

God is so awesome and so worthy to be praised. I magnify and glorify His Holy Name.

This month, I wanted to start by letting God know that He is at the head of my life and at the center of my soul. God is just so good. It’s hard to put it into words. Actually, words just don’t do Him justice. At some point, you have to stop talking and just start doing. He deserves all of our praise and I am determined to honor Him in everything I do.

This year has been one of pure emotion. I’m not sure what God has in store for me, but I am learning to trust Him in ways I never have before. He is showing me things about me that I didn’t even know were there. I’m not sure how it’s possible to feel strong and weak at the same time, but I do. The scripture in 2 Corinthians 12:10 is starting to make sense to me, “That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong.” I am determined that the enemy will not win. He is already defeated and we have to let him know it. The way that we do that is by living this life to the hilt; by embracing every opportunity to show who God is and by working everyday to be a blessing.

I have been rehearsing for an original play written by Pastor Phyllis Cornish that’s scheduled for the end of March. Let me tell you, once I agreed to be in the play, the enemy started getting busy. Every chance he gets, he is using all of the things that I have struggled with, to cause me to feel unsure about my abilities and even to doubt who I know God has made me to be. But God is bigger than any problem he can throw my way and working in this play has been very therapeutic. There have been things that God has revealed to me that I was too afraid to see before. I think allowing myself to open up to my character has caused me to let go of a few things and really embrace some new ones.

Stay tuned…

Be blessed!
