Yes with this picture i want to express my mood coming back to my blog!!
What shall i write?
Shall i pick-up where i stopped joining in meme's?
My laying it ALL down at His feet up-rooted the soil of my soul at least so is how i see it........
Like how you have to up rooted the soil and take ALL WEED out before starting planting seeds to grow properly...
The seeds need to be watered and grow.....
The seeds are all the qualities ( some maybe call it gifts) i got from God and He is watering it to grow properly!!
In this proces he opened my eye for the weeds and how to get rid of them....
I must strive for enough sleep ( no matter my different shifts..and needed to wake-up in the morning for the kids) and spend time with the Lord 1st things first preferable BEFORE everybody wakes up or on my free days straight away after the family left ....NOT EXTENDING......and extending!! What happened i had quiet time in bits and pieces during the day with to much "noise"(distractions) the same time......or at the end of the day totally exhausted( also a distraction)
And the second eye opener is taking good care of my temple( body)...WALKS-FOOD choices and also enough SLEEP!!
And the 3th eye opener or DECISION more to say because i knew it already......My character is to fly and not fight when i can choose in situations!!
Only when i am with my back against an wall and can't go left or right i fight and experience i can CLIMB ALSO OVER MOUNTAINS!!
So the decision i made is to FACE and or confront myself with all what God is dealing with me in different area's of my mind-body-soul and life challenges.......
Not running away or turning my face for it or extending to do BUT to look at it....pray and resolve.....or change......
This rooting-up PRUNING of me for His Glory was and IS an experience more worthy than Gold.....Especially while it is happening you feel the "watering of your soul " by The Lord His never ending Father Love who is felt and the best place to be with Him.A place where He sees us how we are........He sees THE REAL ME......and will bring out THE BEST of us for HIS GLORY and HIS PURPOSES!! Is this also the place you are? If not i urge you to go and seek for this "golden experience" with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ..........
This video strucked me during that time and everytime i look at it..........
Romans 12!

God bless you dear.
Oh Bernice, how I have worshiped and rejoiced during my long stay here this evening. Just drinking it all in. (I did not listen to all of Nancy Leigh DeMoss, just part. I have that DVD.)
God has done so many wonderful things in your life through the 7 days of laying it down! Oh how my heart leaps for joy for you.
I've been home sick for a couple of days. I've used that time to lay at His feet and to write what He would have me to write out of the overflow of His grace.
My dear friend, I will continue to lift you up and pray for you as you seek to glorify Him and stay the course with the 3 areas the Lord revealed to you.
You are loved.
And by the way, I'm honored you would link to one of my devotionals over at Laced With Grace.
Thank you! May the Lord be praised.
This is the third time this video has been presented to me in less than a week!! The talk about pulling weeds, and DIGGING out the root is what God has been speaking to my heart this past 7 days,,,this WAS an awesome devotional sis and spoke volumes to my spirit and walk!!
Awesome message! I watched the videos above the message too...powerful is not strong enough a word to express what I felt about them.
Lord, chisel away all of me until only YOU are revealed!
You've blessed my heart Bernice.
Thank you for sharing as GOD is doing a great continued work in and through you.
Love you.
