Beyond me


What's today? Its Friday. Its time for Five minutes of unplanned, quick , unedited writing.

GO

His love for me, irrespective to what I do or don't do... is beyond my understanding.

Not knowing what the next day.. let alone the next moment will carry.. is past my mothers intuition.

Nothing is possible, or attainable with my skills alone.

Knowing that He alone knows best and that I need to wait for His best to be revealed is beyond my human patience.
     The Lord God is our sun and our shield. He gives us grace and glory. The Lord will withhold no good thing from those who do what is right Psalm 84:11

Remembering God's Word at times of need is beyond the number of furrows on my  brain.

Do not be afraid or discouraged , for the Lord will personally go ahead of you. He will be with you;he will neither fail you nor abandon you. Deuteronomy 31:8

He is beyond the understanding that I have of Him.

So beyond my understanding yet close to me and in me.

STOP

Five Minute Friday: Enough


Every Friday hundreds of women around the globe, look forward to "THE WORD".
1. Write for 5 minutes flat – no editing, no over thinking, no backtracking.
2. Link back here and invite others to join in.
3. And then absolutely, no ifs, ands or buts about it, you need to visit the person who linked up before you & encourage them in their comments. Seriously. That is, like, the rule. And the fun. And the heart of this community..
So, set your timer, clear your head, for five minutes of free writing without worrying about getting it right.
What's the buzz word?


ENOUGH


Go....
I had the gift of waking up this morning, sun in my face and even better, two boys on either side, snuggled in. Isn't that enough?


The gift of family, friends, a comfortable home and the overflowing love from her heavenly Father. What more does a girl need?


But....
There is always wants and needs. The two getting blurred more times than one can count.
A bigger house, A Pinterest perfect house.
More money.
Better image of oneself.
More time.
Orderly obedient kids.
A husband who brings flowers everyday.
A magic machine  to whizz up our daily dinner.


What I wouldn't mind more of is the constant burning desire to be in His presence, the dedication to meet up with Him first thing in the morning. Wisdom to me on my tongue. Christ like love to show and share to another.
Now that would be enough .


Stop.
