    All is not Lost!

    I offer the Bitterness Lord to you, from my soul, my current situation, and my failings. I also place on the alter the joy you have given me, along with thanksgiving. I mix it together, a bitter and sweet sacrifice and I add praise to the mix. You are good! I release regret, guilt, and shame, to you. I receive instruction, clarity, and strength. I failed, I was trapped, and I am not going back. I am loved and I am accepted! I can love and guard my heart.

    2 Chronicles 7:14 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 their land. As I ask the Holy Spirit to help prepare me I heard the above scripture. I have put on my robe of humility and I am quieting my soul. I am turning from my wicked ways and seeking his face, that my land would be healed. It is the process that is important. I enter the Center of My Garden with the joy the Lord has given me and a smile. “Good morning Lord.” “Good morning, shall we enjoy the fragrance of the roses this morning?” “Yes Lord.” We walk over to the roses and stroll, he takes my hand. “Be strengthened, daughter, be encouraged. All is not lost, you have Me!” “Yes Lord, You are my great reward!” “I am!” “You are enough Lord! I let go the bitterness and lies! I can do all things because you strengthen me. I ask for that strength, courage, and wisdom to guard my heart from lies and the wiles of the devil.” He turns to me and smiles, “Granted!” And I know he will add more! We walk breathing in the fragrant flowers and I take time to be encouraged and strengthened, and to just be with him. I got up and came back and I am brought this scripture: Psalm 34:4 I sought the Lord, and He heard me, And delivered me from all my fears.

    Psalm 36:5 Your Mercy, O Lord, is in the heavens; Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.

    Don’t Go Off Track!

    We are sitting on the park bench in my garden and have warm cups of coffee. It is a nice start to the morning. We chat and sip for a while. I turn to the Master Gardener and say: “Thank you for such a pleasant start to the day Lord!” “You are welcome!” We are partaking in very aromatic and quite delicious cinnamon rolls. “Lord feed me today and give me the bread and milk to share with others” “Granted.” I sit and receive.

    Something that got my attention yesterday and today is the Lord showed me Goshen and it is a reminder that if we are his people we dwell in this time in Goshen and his protection and provision is for us!

    Of course in a time of exposure in larger areas of our governments and churches, everywhere actually, it works into our daily lives. It is important to remember who we belong to and who loves us. Jesus is our everything. We can then put the proper boundaries with people who insist on staying in their toxicity and let new roots be established. This is what I am looking for in my plant that was repotted. I realized it had lost a bunch of the little roots and so it will take a bit of time to reestablish them and this is how it is in my garden and life. I must let new roots grow, sometimes these things happen and we must let go! As I was dealing with these new boundaries I was speaking about earlier, I saw “Return to the Main Line!” In the midst of attempted chaos to undo my boundaries the Lord was telling me to get back to doing what he needs me to do and focus on him and that. It helped me to not get caught up and off course. Sometimes we just have to head straight back to the main things so we don’t go off track!
