This week I am going to be at the SCORRE conference learning to be a better speaker and better communicator in my writing. This is my desire so that I might share with you in a more effective manner. For that reason please feel free to read older posts and search for messages that may have been specifically for you. This for me has become one of my greatest passions and desires–how do I tell you about Christ so that you can find the same Joy, Hope, and Love. My life has been a marvelous journey through many valleys that lead me to my greatest mountaintop. I believe that this has been my destiny and I marvel at the grace of God who has so gently taught me. So let me ask you, what are you passionate about and what do you see as your destiny. Listen to these words carefully.

Philippians 3: 12 Not as though I had already attained, either were already perfect: but I follow after, if that I may apprehend that for which also I am apprehended of Christ Jesus.
13 Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before,
14 I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.
A TALK WITH GOD
Oh, let me Lord delight in You
And lay all else I hold aside
For no desire could mean as much
As hear Your voice, to feel your touch
And in Your arms abide
I feel the safety of your arms
Surrounding me throughout each storm
And when the bitter winter wind
Would bid my very spirit bend
Your breath will keep me warm
Forgive me Lord, this fragile heart
Sometimes desires too much
Forgetting You are all I need
Then comes my tears, my plead
To stop and feel Your touch
I then can hear your gentle laugh
The love within Your voice
“My child I love you evermore
My gifts on you I freely pour
The best for you my choice”
Oh, Lord I want to stay right here
And sit here at Your feet
To never step away from You
And then I cannot lose my view
No chance for fear, defeat
“But child I ask then who would go
To tell the wounded broken heart
That I their lonely heart would mend
If not but you, who can I send
If you refuse to start”
Then Father, Dear, I must say yes
To go and run Your bidding do
And You will cast aside my fears
Your hand will wipe away my tears
And keep my eyes on You
I know that You go with me now
You’re ever present in my heart
I feel Your joy arise within
I feel Your wondrous strength again
Your love will ne’er depart
