4 hearts


Today I was getting ready for work and I was looking at the refrigerator of a picture that lily made for me in Kindergarten of a face with flowers and hearts on it and this little voice inside my head said to count the hearts..there were 4. So I was like ok..there's 4..and ...so then I started making my egg and it looked like a heart appearing in the egg..I thought seriously im losing my mind..seeing things that aren't there or this is truly a God thing..didn't really think anything of it so I went to work and as I was sitting in the meeting my mother sent me an attachement of a photo through email..which she NEVER does..and it's of a heart that says " I Love Nursing"...Wow..then I got to thinking this is the 3rd time i've seen hearts today..so now what do you want me to know about this heart thing..so I was praying on the way to see my first patient and I was going over the bridge listening to K-love and all of a sudden they said the verse of the day is Psalm 28:7 ..Trust in the Lord with all your heart..then the light dawned..so that's what he was trying to tell me..well then I thought the story was over and went to bible study tonight and my dear friend who is having some medical problems states her heart had been flip flopping and she's really going through the furnace at this time..I then realized as I was about to share my testimony about the heart that it wasn't for me ..it was for her and God wanted me to tell her to trust in the lord with all her heart..he's there and he will never leave nor forsake you..give it all to him ..he will lead you ..My other friend reminded me that the 4 hearts also represent the 4 people in the fire in the book of Daniel which we are studying currently in that class..never thought of it like that too..God is Awesome!
Thank you Lord for you Revelations..may we be open to the fact that sometimes the revelations aren't for us but to work through us to help others!!

the dream

I had a dream last week of my grandfather (My mom's dad) who has been dead for around 20 years and i dreamt he was standing in front of me and I remember being so excited to learn all about heaven and how neat it must be to be in Jesus's presence. and Papaw just smiled and said "Jesus loves you"..then I woke up..It was so real and so awesome and then it dawned on me that that was what was conveyed to my mom when Jesus appeared to her after seeing my papaw as well..except she saw him in not a dream state..she was on her death bed..and he looked around 30/35 give or take and papaw looked like the same old papaw in my dream. Anyway..I was reading scripture that day and I just knew God was going to show me something and I was reading Luke ch.13 which was about trees and the number 3 (mentioned 3 times) and verse 13 states "he laid his hands on her and immediately she stood up straight and glorified God..which took me back to when mom saw Jesus and he laid his hands on her and how we have been sharing our testimony ever since..giving God the Glory he so richly deserves!

complaining

This past week as I was driving to see patients, I started complaining about having to drive so far..well when I got to my patient he started singing a christian hymn ..I was so blessed by that..I told him I listen to my christian music when I drive and he asked me what song and i said "Amazing Grace" since I knew he knew that one and he started singing that one as well. So God ended up Blessing me through this patient that i was Complaining about driving out to see..He had a bigger plan and I couldn't see the big picture. Isn't that how it is in life in general? I was thinking about what to give up for this upcoming lent..Last year I gave up chocolate..but now he is saying I don't have to give up something "physical" but that i need to give up an "action" and that is an action of complaining. I will need to direct my focus on God when I start to complain..it won't be easy but i'm willing to try!!! This Sunday's sermon topic was on "change"..so i feel it just confirmed what i thought..we all need to change..i'm sure we all have some habit or something we would like to change or should change!!Here's to change!!!

God in America

My mom and I were having a conversation today 2/5/12 before church about Keeping God in the schools and how America has gotten away from God and giving in to the status quo...how we Christians need to start stepping it up and defending and not giving in to society in general.She was discussing this as I was reading my bible verses for the day ..I was reading Psalm 33:12.."Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people whom he has chosen as his heritage!"..WOW!!! Some people would think that is a coincidence but I believe it's a Godcidence..I know that's not a word but that was perfectly timed. I feel He wants us to wake up ..this Nation as a whole especially with the upcoming election..I pray his will, will be done and we will become more courageous and stand up for what we believe in..it's time to get God back in the schools and in the nation!!!
