To Friends!

Here's to good friends!
To seemingly bad friends!
To loud friends and silent friends
To friends whose laughter drive away sorrow
And friends whose presence drive loneliness back into the shadows
Friends radiating sunshine on cold winter days
A cup of Coffee (scratch that, Tea), conversation, a burden shared.

For friends who don't judge but listen and lend a helping hand.
In the midst of the "I told you so's" is  a shoulder I know I can always lean on
A kind word, a thoughtful prayer, a smile, an embrace,
Food! oh yes food!
The joys of sharing and caring for each other.

Happy chatter, soulful moments
Tears shared, words said,
Today, tomorrow, forever
I know I have a friend in you
For this honour and privilege,
I am truly grateful!

"And blessed  is  she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord." Luke 1:45 (KJV) "Now therefore, O LORD God, the word that You have spoken concerning Your servant and his house, confirm it forever and do as You have spoken," 2 Samuel 7:25 (NASB) Has the Lord given you a word?  Has it been fulfilled?  Hold on to His word in faith until it is fulfilled.  Give Him praise for fulling his word in your life. Be thankful and bless his name until you see it come to pass.  Mary heard the angel speak to her and he informed her of things to come. She believed, and there was a performance of the words that were spoken. David heard the words of God spoken to him through God's prophet and revealed to him by prophecy. He believed and prayed for its fulfillment.  Many times we receive a word from God, through revelation or through prophecy. What do we do with these words? Let's hold on t...

The life of a worshiper_ Speak Lord

Somewhere between the sand dunes and the ocean waves my heart cried out to you. Somewhere between the motions of daily life and the quest for something greater. Somewhere in the middle of trying to find my balance, They say 'it's out there'... but I've been searching for it for a while. Somehow, I needed a break and I went in search of it. Boa Vista... 48 hours of bliss! Lounging on the beach, walking in the sand dunes. Wondering, walking, wandering... Like those diving for lost treasure, in my heart somewhere is a treasure I've lost sight of. A treasure, I had lost sight of. My vision, askew. My focus, dim. A treasure, I had lost sight of. Wondering, walking, wandering.... I called out to You. My heart longed for you, this priceless treasure, the connection I had with you, to hear your voice, To see your face, To walk with you To wonder at you To wander with you To be lost in your awe and wonder. And so my heart called out to you, from its d...

Broken Vessels

Picture from: https://www.lifegate.com/people/lifestyle/kintsugi Broken Vessels! Broken Vessels!! Collecting them for my Master's use Bring not one, Bring not a few Collecting them for His grand design. Broken, cracked, shattered, worthless... The Master has need of them, your price He'll pay. Whatever you seek in exchange for these, He's willing in equity to give your due. A due not fit to some, but best for all For no broken vessel is without hope. Picture from http://www.herotowngeelong.com.au/using-kintsugi-to-see-the-beauty-in-failure/ We'll search the dumps and scavenge through pits We'll walk this earth for our calling it is to every broken vessel find and the Master with them unite.
