  • Joy for the Journey

    Joy for the Journey

    “Good Morning Lord!” (As I stepped into the center of my garden I left behind my worries, my concerns, and overwhelming emotion.) I turned my eyes to Jesus and realize he is brilliant in white. “Lord you are beautiful!” He said,” Take my hand this morning Krista.” There is an importance, an urgency , a command, concern, and love, to name a few of the intentions behind his speaking. I take his hand and bind my being, my soul, my mind, all of me to him. “I am going your way Lord. Fill me Lord, with your love, guide me in your truth.” Then he says: “It is not an easy path I ask you to take. I need you to listen to me and I need you to follow.” “Yes Lord! Will you help me? You know my weaknesses. Will you empower and embolden me to be the person you have always seen? I see it too, but can not sustain it, or achieve it even, on my own. Help me to lean on you instead of myself!” “I will, Krista, I am!”

    Just before going into the garden this morning, I had a weight of care and emotions concerning others. I realized I could not get into the center without letting it go, trusting it all to God, and laying it all down. After doing this, the entire garden just faded away and the brilliance of Jesus and his presence is all I could see and experience!

    “Lead me today Lord. Show me all you need me to see. Lead my decisions, grant me clarity, discernment spiritually, and stability in emotion and more, to take the road ahead and keep moving forward!” “I will and I am!” “Thank you Lord!

    A few minutes past and the Holy Spirit brought up in me something I needed to ask for and receive: “Would you give me joy for the journey Lord?” “Yes!,” and he smiled as he spoke. So now I breathe in your presence and am filled with all I need!
