Peace above the storm

Daddy God, 

 What does it really mean to have peace above the storm? How was it that in the midst of the howling storms, Your posture was to rest and sleep (Mark 4:38)? 

 Indeed, You never promised us a life without trials and tribulations, but You promised us that You have given us peace not as the world gives, but as You would give. 
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. 
Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
John 14:27 (NIV)

I think that's the answer to why our hearts do not need to be troubled or afraid, because Your peace is in us. Recently I heard this revelation, the peace in our hearts is not subjected to the storms on the outside. Indeed, Jesus your peace is constant, your peace is reliable no matter what happens around us. 

So today, I ask Lord, that Your Peace will manifest in my heart, that I will walk with the confidence that You are with me, Your Peace is with me. I have a beautiful life, one that You have blessed and prospered me. There is nothing I need to be troubled or afraid about. I know you are in my boat, Lord, and You will calm the wind and waves that threatens to shake up the peace in my heart. 

Princess with Peace,

Sit at your feet

Daddy God, Why Lord Why, do you love me so much, so much so that you are willing to send your only Son, your only begotten to the Cross (John 3:16), to bear the pain of sin and shame, just so you could redeem me as yours? I am so loved, I am yours. Last week we had our Church Camp virtually and just when I thought that it wouldn't be as epic as a Church that was attended in person, I was wrong! I was SO wrong! Even though this is my 7th Church Camp, this has got to be the BEST  one! There was no one session that You didn't use to speak into my life, to lift me higher into your presence and your grace, to assure me that You are everything  I need! SIT AT YOUR FEET Let this be my position daily Lord, to come and sit at your feet, not just to hear you, but to be near you. Just like Mary, doing that ONE THING that is needful (Luke 10:42). During the camp, at one of the Hangout with Pastors, Deaconess Chomel mentioned this worship song that ministered to her. The lyric...

Still choose to Praise You

Daddy God, Has anything changed in the reality? Not exactly. I am still as jobless as I was two months ago, just slightly discouraged with all the rejections or absence of opportunities for me. But Lord, today, I stand firm on the fact that You never change, You are faithful. You are the reason I can wake up each new day and still PRAISE you! You are worthy to be PRAISE! For what you have done for me at the Cross so you can redeem me from a life that could be much worse than this for me to live a life LOVING life! Suddenly I am reminded of the 4 fours that Deaconess Miriam have been speaking over us during camp. LIVE LOVED. LIVE LOVING.  Yes Lord, I am loved by you. That's why You wouldn't open doors for me that you don't want me walking through. And I can live loving each and every day that YOU have blessed me with. I will praise you, my God and King, and bless your name each day and forever. Psalm 145: 1-2 (TLB)  Am I still hopeful? Yes I am Lord. Your p...
