I had a great time at the conference as well! God gave me freedom in some more areas of my life and I praise God for it. He really touched me in a very personal way.

I think that the husbands having the information is great way for them to be involoved in praying for them while their wives are at the conference. I plan on discussing the workshops with my hubby to help me decide which ones I want to attend. I jumping inside myself at the chance of being able to go to the conference this year. I hope that in sharing with my husband and through prayer to decide which workshops to go that God will move in a mighty way in my life. I pray that what happens to the conference with the women at the conference will not only change their lives but also the lives of their husbands and children when they see the change in the women.

Amen! It is good to hear that the congregation did not close its door. It makes me happy to know that is moving among His people and those of my generation and younger are being drawn to church!

I use to wonder too why there was suffering. Why did bad things happen happen to good people or so I thought they were basically good? I agree with the statement that He gives " beauty for ashes and the oil of joy for mourning that He might be glorified." This has been my experience in life as well.

To Remember

As time passes by
I am reminded to remember
What all the Lord has done for me
It seems like only yesterday
That I accepted Jesus into my heart
But that has been twent-one years ago now
I was but nine years old and afraid of many things
The Lord has brought me through so many things
He brought me out of an abusive home and placed me with loving parents
He has shown me where He was in all my early memories
He saw the wounds in my heart and replaced them with His love and grace
He has given me a husband for which we have been married seven years
God continues to bring blessings into my life
Friends, family and a niece to cherish and pray for
I bless the Lord for all He continues to do in me and those around me
Bless the Lord oh, my soul
And all that is within me bless His holy name.

Re: I love to pray

I have to admit that I pray more now that I am home then when I was working. Prayer along with poetry and praise has kept me sane during this past year and I pray that those things continue to do so. My husband just brought homw some posterboard and I am going to use it as a way to express my feelings about God's promises for me.

I think it is a wonderful way to express what you are feeling. What helps me is to write in a journal or to poetry to the Lord. I tend to let things fester until I explode but I am doing better lately. Thank you so much for your wonderful post. I am almost finished reading in Isaiah.

We had children's church showcase on Sunday. I sang right up there with the kids. " I just want to be a sheep." We also participated in the Global Day of prayer. Nick helped his brother move some stuff but I tell you what I liked the most was..... Knowing that God is moving here in the earth and in every nation on the planet. Praise God!

Re: Standards

mariequick — Sun, 24 May 2009 16:47:09 -0000

I liked this post very much. As someone who did not have a good home life early on. The standards that were instilled then God had to remove from my life for they were not from HIM. When I was placed into a godly home at age thirteen I began to see that was not how life was suppose to be. God had a better plan for my life as well as standards to match what I believe. It is troubling to me to see the news or talk to people who have extremely different standards than mine. One thing I can say is God can certainly change our standards. He continues to change mine. I praying that will continue to happen when I join a small group for The Truth Project.

Re: Seasons and Transitions

mariequick — Fri, 01 May 2009 19:09:20 -0000

The following verse has been my promise here lately. Isaiah 43:18-19 NIV
" Forget the former things, do not dwell on the past. See I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up do you not percieve it? I am making a way in the desert and streams in the wasteland." This has gotten me to no longer to dwell on what has happened in the past the things that I can not do anything about. I have seen where God was in those times and that was helpful but what I have to realize now is that He is STILL with me. Jesus is my water in the different seasons and transitions that I face in life. I forget that sometimes and then the uses either a person or a scripture to remind that He is STILL God and I am not. Thank goodness for that.

Touch and quality time are my two primary love languages while my hubby's are touch and acts of service. Thanks Sheri for the lovely blog. I will try some new love languages just as soon as I get over this sickness.

Re: When you’re forced to choose between ice cream and fruit

mariequick — Tue, 21 Apr 2009 12:33:01 -0000

I would have a hard time choosing too. When given the option of icecream or fruit I would choose Ice cream everytime but I might add banannas to mine. I see something else in this post. It is an anology for me. That when someone sins they don't just sin a little they add things to their sin to try to hide the fact that they are sinning. In knowing we should have the good fruit in our lives we might often choose the ice cream instead. God wants us to have the good fruit in our lives. Gal. 5:22-23. Sometimes we crave and desires things that God does not want us to have and we complain to Him but here is a thought... Pray everytime you want bowl of ice cream or sin and see what fruit He might want for you instead.

Re: I love life lessons….

mariequick — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 18:33:20 -0000

That was an amazing testimony of how God uses the ordinary things in our lives to teach us about how He is used in our lives. Thanks Sheri for the reminder of who the Potter truly is in our lives and how he fasions us like the tile into something beautiful.
