  • Growth and Beauty!

    Growth and Beauty!

    “Good morning Lord!” As I walked into the Center of My Garden I was helped on with a shear shawl. It was preparation and to remind me of my status with the Master Gardener- the King, a symbol of authority. I walk in humbly, with confidence and a smile. He smiles and takes me by the hand. “What are we working on today?” “Growth and beauty. I see you have put on your robe of humility, daughter.” “Oh yes Lord!” “Things did not go as you expected, that is okay. Keep following me and trusting me,” he smiles. “I am doing a good work in you!” “Yes Lord you are!” And we begin today’s work.

    If you find yourself, like me, a bit uncomfortable in the process he has you in, it is okay. Do not give up and be encouraged and strengthened.

    Rev 12:11 And they overcame by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.

  • Resources!

    Resources!

    “Good morning Lord.” “Good morning.” ” Lord, I want to live truth. What is wisdom for me, my whole garden, to move forward? Where do I set resources and where do I withhold? What needs to change in me and how might I please you?” “You do please me, trust me and follow me!” “Yes Lord!” And I take his hand and the bouquet of roses he has handed me and in joy we walk in the garden.

    I have had practice and answers today, I will keep trusting and following him. I hope you will too!

    I hear the Spirit saying: Rejoice for the steps of a righteous man, they are ordered by the Lord. Psalm 37:23 The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, And He delights in his way.

  • Resistance is Futile!

    Resistance is Futile!

    I step through the hanging limbs with leaves and blossoms, into the Center of My Garden. It is filled with his light! I smile, “Oh good morning Lord.” I place my head on his shoulder, (I had quickly sat beside him). “Lord I am filled with courage, with love, and joy, this morning.” “Yes, you are and waves will continue to come over you and wash away the gloom and pain of “yesterday”. ” “Thank you Lord I receive your refreshing more fully!”

    Resistance is futile! It only compels me forward. That is my stance against the pressure of the enemy today. My resistance is effective against him however.

    James 4:7 Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

    I am prompted by the Spirit and begin to sing: “My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus’ blood and righteousness…On Christ the Solid Rock I stand!”

  • oh His smile!/a New way.

    oh His smile!/a New way.

    5/17/26 “Good morning Lord, I love you!” “Good morning Krista,” he is smiling at me, oh His smile! “Are you Ready to live and thrive and move in me?” “Yes Lord, I am, help me make the adjustments in order to do this!” “I am, I will! The planting is completed this morning, let us enjoy the whole garden.” “Yes Lord! Lead me on!”

    I hear the Spirit saying: If My people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal there land. 2 Chronicles 7:14 Amen! And so I turn, we turn whole heartedly to you Jesus. We forsake all wicked ways. Heal our land, restore our families- bless our lives! Equip us to reach the children. Have your way in the United States of America and the whole World.

    On this national day of Rededication, I rededicate my life, my family, my country The United States of America to God/Jesus, and all our purposes!!! Will you join me?

    Yesterdays post:

    5/16/26 “Lord, good morning”- I burst into the Center of My Garden with a smile, “I am eager to work and be with you!” He embraces me, “Let us continue our work today Krista!” And this fills my heart to overflowing! “Yes Lord let’s continue! Speak/reveal the truth in love to me and supply my needs, show me the way in which to overcome the challenges.” And we head out hand in hand.

    Our conversation as we walk: “Lord I do not want to continue in the way they are going and I do not want to cater to them anymore. I choose to go alone with you a new way. I can do all things… Give me what I need to do this. Help me Jesus! I need help inside myself and from their schemes. I so forgive them, but I’ll not have it anymore. Will you help me? “Yes Krista,” he extends his hand to me, and I take it. “I will lead you out today, don’t be afraid, will you follow? “Yes Lord I am following!” “Keep your eyes on me and stay close.” “Yes Lord, help me!” “I am!”

    I hear the Spirit say: I am my beloveds and he is mine, his banner over me is love. Song of Solomon 2:4 He brought me to the banqueting house, and his banner over me was love.

  • The Truth

    The Truth

    I step into the Center of My Garden with a smile. The Master Gardener is waiting for me. “Good morning Lord!” Good morning Krista! Today we will continue to work on boundaries and we will plant.” “Thank you Lord!” “You are most welcome!” “Can we sit and have a cup of coffee and enjoy the love in the atmosphere, (it comes from him)? ” “Yes,” he smiles and we sit a while.

    I heard the Spirit speaking this scripture: Psalm 95:7b-8 Today if you will hear His voice: “Do not harden your hearts, as in the rebellion, As in the day of trial in the wilderness,”

    Lord help me/us to face You- The Truth and be set free, set on course. Provide and carry us through needed changes. May we walk swiftly into obedience surrounded by your love, clarity, and provision! Expose. Make the vision plain!

  • I Hear Him!

    I Hear Him!

    “Hear I am to worship…”, I sing as I come into the Center of My Garden. “Lord, what is on your heart today? What would you like to say and reveal? I pray for the peace of Jerusalem.” He comes over to me and holds me close. I brearhe.

    Today I hear him say: “Walk with me, continue to step out afresh, wait on me as I renew your mind and strengthen you. You will hear a voice beside you saying to go to the right or left. Follow me, I got this!”

    Isaiah 30:20-21 And though the Lord gives you the bread of adversity and the waters of affliction, Yet your teachers will not be removed into a corner anymore, But your eyes shall see your teachers. Your ears shall hear a word behind you saying, “This is the way, walk in it,” Whenever you turn to the right hand or the left.

  • Offer my Hand to Him!

    Offer my Hand to Him!

    I walk into the Center of My Garden and offer my hand to him to lead me. His hand was already extended toward me, to my surprise. I look up and smile, “I love you,” I say. ” I know,” he smiles. And we walk toward a very lit place of sunshine and joy- nestled between green hills. “What a day this will be Lord lead on.” And he does!

    Today the Lord says: “Come away with me my love.” Will you take his invitation? I know I am!

    Song of Solomon 2:10-11 My beloved spoke, and said to me: “Rise up, my love, my fair one, And come away. For lo, the winter is past, The rain is over and gone!”

  • Carry on in His Strength!

    Carry on in His Strength!

    “Good morning Lord! How I love you!” We embrace. I breathe in his fragrance. Love and unity surround us. I take time to smile and just be. “What is on your heart today Lord?” “Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.” And I do. “You are working all things for my good. Help me to love and prefer you first and wholly.” He smiles. “I will. Let us get to work in the garden, there is much planning and work to be done!” And a sense of joy wells up as we set off to work. “I am going to please you!”

    I am standing on the goodness, faithfulness, and promises of God today. It really is satisfying to overcome each day. I pray you would find joy in the journey today and this week. Let us carry on in His strength!

  • Labor with Purpose and Determination!

    Labor with Purpose and Determination!

    “Good morning Lord- what a beautiful day in the Center of My Garden.” He is on the ground, trowel in hand and beads of water are falling onto the planting. He is laboring for me, teaching me, and the intensity of the light is causing beads to fall from his forehead. “Lord your labor is watering the seeds. Will you teach me how to partner with you in your labor with purpose and determination, but not striving and on my own?” “Yes, watch me and follow. Do as I do,” he smiles. “Thank you Lord for showing me that you care for me so tenderly and faithfully. How I need your love!” And with that I get down beside him to work! I begin to sing “What a mighty God we serve.”

    Something on my heart began yesterday. I was given such praise from the Lord and then I saw a scripture that seemed challenging and began to feel lacking, critical. I believe it is good to let scripture and truth pierce me and challenge me to grow, but I have been finding something else going on. It is comparison. Sometimes we are expecting things of ourselves and it is too much. God requires from us what we can do and have, yes he will challenge us at times to do more, but we can get overwhelmed with some things by expecting more than he is actually asking of us. It is something we do, listening and looking at what something looks like in another’s life, I am finding it is good to do what we can, but it wont be the same way always, in which others fulfill things. Now I am not talking about sin. God can be asking us to start small, in our eyes or others eyes, and often we can do something (acts of kindness etc.), but it looks different than the accepted normal way. I just want to challenge you to open up to seeing how the Lord has called you to fulfill his requests for you in your life. I am currently doing this. It can often begin in our own house or toward one person or situation. There are things that we overlook as well, we don’t deem them anything, but they are love and obedience and when we see the truth it makes it easier for us to let go of false expectations and continue on out of encouragement. I stopped to ask for how I am fulfilling the scripture and how I might continue too grow in it. And he showed me and I felt empowered instead of feeling unable like my feet hand been cut off beneath me. I pray for a revelation for you in this too that you might know the love and goodness of our God more fully!

  • Break the Chains of Shame!

    Break the Chains of Shame!

    “Lord, I love you,” I sit beside him. “I love you,” he smiles. “Happy Mother’s day, you are a good mother Lord! I want to honor you today and follow in obedience quicker. I want to grow as a mother too. Will you lead me today Lord?” “Yes, I will!” “Thank you, I lay my head on his shoulder.

    I wonder if you know how sweet and satisfying it is to get honor from Jesus. I received it from him this morning after writing the above. He brought me to a scripture and I am blessed! I had to stop and let the love wash over me. How wonderful to receive praise from the one it matters most from. I had to let it in and let go the feeling to hide from his love and praise, but I am growing and I will not agree with the lies anymore. I hope you let him love you today. I pray that the lies that have bound you would fall behind you today! I give a mother’s blessing to you from the Father and from me!!! I love you! Let us break the chains of shame today by His Spirit!

    Proverbs 31:10, Who can find a virtuous wife? For her worth is far above rubies. 28-31 Her children rise up and call her blessed; Her husband also, and he praises her: “Many daughters have done well, But you excel them all.” Charm is deceitful and beauty is passing, But a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised. Give her of the fruit of her hands, And let her own works praise her in the gates.
