THE BEAUTY OF ALMOST

I have had my share of almost!!! Almost fell in love, Almost got the scholarship, Almost got the job....I have many almosts, eventually I started to think I was jinxed but I washed the idea away and then I thought maybe I was doing the wrong thing expecting the different results but that was not it ether, so I just sat and enjoyed the almosts. As they came, I must have resigned to the pattern life had set. Until,I saw the beauty in my almost. At the end of the teary days, there was a glimpse of new hope that I found in my almosts.

When you are 23 and have almost got it right on a lot the things that life has to offer, to get it wrong on some, is heart breaking. I have lived it, I have cried through it but most of all I have grown. I really have grown!

So I am here to say, almost counts... it does a lot! Almost teaches you that dreams can be put on hold. Almost teaches you to keep hoping, it could be the next stop. Almost is powerful in creating hopefuls. I am a hopeful, there is a raw deal in knowing you are about to get there. Almost is a check on your patience, don't give up just yet, maybe it didn't open up this time but there is always a next time...there are always many next times. Eventually, you get it and you serve it up. You get your next in line moment. You fall in love, You get a better paying job, you study above and beyond. Eventually the odds line up in your favor. But the "Almost" created a bridge to keep going on.

And in the end, if you never get there, you tried  and you almost got it right. Almost counts.

LORD I NEED YOU

"Teach my song to rise to You
When temptation comes my way
And when I cannot stand I'll fall on You
Jesus, You're my hope and stay"

 Through the day I have been meditating on these lines from Matt Maher's "Lord I need You".
I have come to trust the convictions that come from meditating on the same thing. So I sat and thought through why I was stuck at this point in the song. I just could not stop thinking about what it brought to my heart.

I want to always  to be able to say to God; " Teach My Song to rise to You When temptation comes my way." so my song could always rise up to the Lord in times when sin wages war. I know many a times, when I find myself at the place of vulnerable indulgence  there is usually no praise on my lips for the Lord.

 I want to always have my praise up for the Lord, in my song I can always have my eyes fixed on the Lord. My song has to rise so that the path of temptation is ever brought a close or even a dead end. That way, the path to sin is ever narrowed in my life. 

David said of himself, " Your praise is always on my lips."

I definitely want to be able to let my guard down in beautiful surrender to God and be able to say, " When I cannot stand I'll fall on you. Jesus, you're my hope and stay"
 He should be the only anchor for my soul. I need to learn everyday to let God be Lord over it all. I battle with surrender, to know that I have no control over the outcome of my life is threatening in itself, to know that the ship has it's own master other than me is scary but I want to be able to tell God, I cannot stand on my own...help me. Stay with me and help me see tomorrow.

I am banking on the fact that God knows it all, and that he wants me to let him have control over the situations of my life.

One man sang, " I love the way you handle my situations"

I want to be able to say that to God, that he has handled my situations through and through, that he has opened a way for life to be all about his cares on me and his protective arm all around. I want to fall always in the arms of God. To find strength for my feeble knees not in any place but in God. In reckless abandonment to what he can do for my heart's situations and circumstances.

In all of it, I hope I never reach a place where I stop needing God, Not in this lifetime. Never. May my earnest plea for life always be, "Lord, I need you."

Lord, RAISE THEM UP!

Image result for war room prayer raise them up


We probably all watched the movie, "WAR ROOM". If you haven't, go check it out. My favorite part in the whole movie is the scene where the old lady prays for all of God's people all over the world. I love how she calls for an awakening, to raise them up. Boy, does she pray like heaven beckons every time. Let me not talk all day, I just wanted to share the prayer here for anyone who wants to read and go do closet wars.

You’ve done it again, Lord. You’ve done it again.
You are good, and You are mighty, and You are merciful! And You keep taking care of me when I don’t deserve it.
Praise You, Jesus! You are Lord….
Raise up more that will call upon Your name.
Raise up those that love You, and seek You, and trust You.
Raise ‘em up, Lord!
Raise 'em up!
Lord, we need a generation of believers who are not ashamed of the gospel!
We need an army of believers, Lord, that hate to be lukewarm, and will stand on Your Word above all else!
Raise 'em up, Lord!
Raise 'em up!
I pray for unity among those that love You.
I pray that You open their eyes so that they can see Your truth, Lord.
I pray for Your hand of protection and guidance.
Raise up a generation, Lord, that will take light into this world; that will not compromise when under pressure; that will not cower, Lord, when others fall away!
Raise 'em up, Lord, that they will proclaim that there is salvation in the name of Jesus Christ!
Raise up warriors, Lord, who will fight on their knees, who will worship you with their whole hearts, Lord!
Lord, call us to battle, that we may proclaim King of Kings, and Lord of Lords!
I pray these things with all my heart.
Raise 'em up, Lord!
Raise 'em up!


“Raise ‘Em Up”, from the movie “The War Room”

-John 10:10 KJV

But the Lord is faithful, who shall establish you, and keep you from evil.
-2 Thessalonians 3:3 KJV
