Patti, what wonderful truth is in this statement! I praise God for you and thank HIM in advance for all the HE is 'making you in to!' You are beautiful now so just imagine what it will be like when HE is finished w/you! Hallelujah and bless HIS precious name. I bet we can all thank HIM for doing this in our lives as well? I thank HIM SO SO much that I am also 'not what I was!' HE loves us enuf to lift us up and clean us up and then takes all the time needed to give us a new heart, mind and spirit. Thank YOU Jesus! Andi I’m not where He wants me, I’m not what I want to be in Him, but thankfully, I’m not what I was.

I am learning about spiritual warfare...and am certain more now than ever, that Greater is He that is in me, than in the world. I have been seeking His face for a while and He has been faithful to me, even when I fail to be faithful to Him. I took a big step in obedience this past weekend...as I leaned totally on the leading of the Holy Spirit. It was good and it was right to be obedient....but the firey darts came after me. I believe...though they came and will come again, seeds have been planted. I just needed, as Gail has said....to lean into Him that night. I'm not where He wants me, I'm not what I want to be in Him, but thankfully, I'm not what I was. Thank You, Lord Jesus....for loving us so that You provided for our salvation. Thank You that we can come to You with anything on our heart...even fears and feelings of failure. Forgive me, Lord....as I let the evil one, take me into captivity for a while. Even so I can praise You! I didn't stay there...and didn't go as deep. Bless and minister to these wonderful laides here....as we share, praise You, worship You and minister through You. We lift Your Holy Name up on High...for only You are Worthy. In Jesus Name...... Thank you dear friends…for your prayers.
