Thoughts...
I have alot of things running through my brain today....I guess every mother does, but one thought that keeps coming up or should I say, 'revelation', that I keep having is to write a 'love letter' of forgiveness to someone close to me. I don't have any idea where to begin, but I know this is something God put on my heart to do. I'm praying it through, thinking it through (obviously, which is why it's such a HUGE thought) & letting it rest in the hands of the almighty father of mine. What I mean by 'love letter'...is b/c I could choose to get angry & upset about some pain this person has caused, OR, I could choose to just love them, regardless of circumstances, past issues, etc.

I do pray, that over time, God the father, would give me HIS words, HIS heart, HIS ears to hear & HIS eyes to see, ALL that He desires of me, as His child, in order to do something like this.

Writing is much easier for me....& not talking over the phone would really work, plus they don't live here locally.

So for now, my "thoughts" are to love, honor, cherish & bless this person in all I say and do, no matter how painful it really is. That is what I desire to do. I"m not going to "strive" to do it, just simply do, as my heavenly father would do if He were in this situation.

More thoughts on that later...

For now, I am thankful, blessed, trusting, loving & worthy!

Here is an e-devotional that I pray encourages any of you who may be reading today:

SMALL STRAWS IN A SOFT WIND by Marsha Burns -- May 1, 2009:

Let your heart be still and your mind be clear. There is much to accomplish in this season, and your work needs to be established by raising the standard of purity with clarity of vision and purpose. Refuse to allow the enemy to derail you through distractions. Maintain eternal perspective and righteous focus. This time will produce good fruit if your will rise up in the Spirit, overcome the works of the flesh, and be about your Father's business. The devil is your enemy; go to war against everything that is carnal and ungodly, says the Lord. Victory is assured!

Romans 8:7 "Because the carnal mind is enmity against God; for it is not subject to the law of God, nor indeed can be."
