In Other Words Tuesdays ~Women of God~

 

“If we’re going to become the women God wants us to be, we’re going to have to begin being consciously selective, which means we ask ourselves questions like: Is this the best use of my time, money, energy, and resources? Is this God’s highest and best for me? Is it the healthiest thing for my spirit, soul, and body? … Do my daily choices reflect my true values or am I taking the path of least resistance simply to avoid the hard work of making conscious selections?”

by Donna Partow, Becoming the Woman God Wants Me to Be: A 90-Day Guide to

Living the Proverbs 31 Life

Being consciously selective ; ask ourselves questions........is living purposefully

1 Peter 1:18-21 (The Message)

 ^18-21Your life is a journey you must travel with a deep consciousness of God. It cost God plenty to get you out of that dead-end, empty-headed life you grew up in. He paid with Christ's sacred blood, you know. He died like an unblemished, sacrificial lamb. And this was no afterthought. Even though it has only lately—at the end of the ages—become public knowledge, God always knew he was going to do this for you. It's because of this sacrificed Messiah, whom God then raised from the dead and glorified, that you trust God, that you know you have a future in God. 

1 Peter 1:18-21 (New International Version)

¹⁸For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your forefathers, ¹⁹but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect. ²⁰He was chosen before the creation of the world, but was revealed in these last times for your sake. ²¹Through him you believe in God, who raised him from the dead and glorified him, and so your faith and hope are in God.

The quote from Donna Partow is really true!

To become the woman God wants me to become is an walk of CHANGE......

There is only change possible when you ask youreself questions......in light of God's Word

I have no empty way of life to go but an life full of purpose...God's purpose for my life

The Proverbs 31 woman is “clothed”: with splendor and honor, strength and beauty. This beauty is godliness. She “laughs without fear of the future” and “shall rejoice in time to come.”

Her inner beauty shines Jesus! Look at these New Testament verses.

Clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not think about how to gratify the desires of your sinful nature. Romans 13:14

As God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. Colossians 3:12

All of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because, “God opposes the proud and gives grace to the humble.” 2 Peter 5:5b

Proverbs 31:30

“Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman who fears the LORD is to be praised.” In this context, the word “fear” means to revere, to honor, to adore.

So my belief  is my beauty. So is yours.

You can write it as a simple equation:

BELIEF = INNER BEAUTY

My believe reflects my inner beauty ..........my true values 

Donna asks "do my daily choices reflect my true values"........Yes when my basis is The fear of God.......,my values get right in place .....and effect my daily choices....my inner beauty is shining!!

It IS  hard work to make conscious selections and the temptations are great to choose the path of least resistance simply to avoid the hard work!

But God's LOVE  His redeeming power towards me draws and carry me through my "life's Journey" and i praise Him for that to give PURPOSE to my life !

In Other Words will be hosted today ( tuesday)by Patricia on her blog, Typing One-Handed. 

  

 

My Walk @ Talk..........~ God at Eventide...BREAK FREE..!!~

God At Eventide

Break Free

For by whom a man is overcome . . . he is the slave.
I cut the bonds of sin which bound you to evil. With loving Hands I replaced each with my cords of Love, which bound you to Me, your Lord.
The power of evil is subtle. A cut cord, a snapped cord, would awaken your slumbering conscience, but strand by strand, so carefully, with gentleness cunningly acquired, evil works until a cord is free. Even then the work is slow, but oh, so sure, until presently the old bond I severed is binding you to evil, strand by strand.
Snap off these returning fetters. Satan hath desire to have you that he may sift you as wheat. He works with an efficiency My servants would do well to copy. He has marked you as one who will increasingly bring souls to Me.

Now to Him who is able to keep you from falling, and to make you stand in the presence of His glory blameless with great joy, to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen.  Jude 1:24-25

This devotion let me look-up some verses and think things over and make an "My walk @Talk" blogpost

Proverbs 5:22 (New International Version) 

22 The evil deeds of a wicked man ensnare him;
the cords of his sin hold him fast.

Proverbs 5:22 (The Message) 

21-23 Mark well that God doesn't miss a move you make;
he's aware of every step you take.
The shadow of your sin will overtake you;
you'll find yourself stumbling all over yourself in the dark.
Death is the reward of an undisciplined life;
your foolish decisions trap you in a dead end.


Proverbs 16:6 (New International Version) 

6 Through love and faithfulness sin is atoned for;
through the fear of the LORD a man avoids evil.

Proverbs 16:6 (The Message) 

6 Guilt is banished through love and truth;
Fear-of-God deflects evil. 

Indeed Lord I want to break free....I need to break free.....

I always think in pictures.........
Picture myself in my walk and talk with The Lord : I saw beeing as FREE as an butterfly......
But the catterpillar is to me as interesting as the butterfly to look at it as an symbol.....of how i grow in my faith and get disciplined not to walk in sin ( as above said to stumbling all over myself in the dark).
The catterpillar is transforming and breaking out of the cocoon of entanglement.......

Yes Lord in some area's of my life i am like an butterfly but in others i am still in an cocoon entangled....stumbling in the dark because i am not disciplined enough to surge for Your Truth......or even afraid to surge for the truth.......or be confronted with it!

But YOU cut and are cutting the cords of evil Lord Jesus.......so I AM NOT TOTALLY in the dark like the catterpillar......the cocoon is cracking and letting in Your light.....My conscience is awakened because of Your LOVE and TRUTH........

YOU are drawing me in with Your cords of Love!!

Your spirit what dwells in me Lord Jesus humbles me and make me walk more in Fear of the Father.......

Yes before my will was strong and i felt proud so fear for My Father was pushed away......

my prayer is to let My Will diminish and Your will grow in me.......

That Your spirit of Love in me BREAK FREE all the cords of sin in my life...so i can walk in Love and Truth and become an beautiful butterfly ..........AMEN

"Just when the caterpillar thought the world was
over, it turned into a butterfly."

Unknown

"How does one become a butterfly?" she asked pensively.
"You must want to fly so much that you are willing to give
up being a caterpillar."

Trina Paulus

Friend of Mine

Friend of Mine

What man calls conversion is often only the discovery of the Great Friend.  What man calls religion is the knowledge of the Great Friend.  What man calls holiness is the imitation of the Great Friend Perfection, that perfection I enjoined on all, the being perfect as your Father in Heaven is perfect, is the being like the Great Friend and in turn becoming to others a Great Friend too I am your Friend.  Think again of all that means -- Friend and Savior.  A friend is ready to help, anticipating every want, hand outstretched to help and encourage, or to ward off danger, voice of tenderness to soothe tired nerves and speak peace to restlessness and fear. Think of what, to you, your friend is and then from that, try to see a little of what the Perfect Friend, the tireless, self-less, all-conquering, all miracle-working Friend would be.  That Friend, and more even than your heart can imagine, that Friend am I. Were I to read My Kingdom -- My Kingdom of the Child Hearts -- the doctrines of your churches, so often there would be no response.  But the simple rules I gave My followers are known, loved, and lived by them all. In all things seek simplicity.  A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly; and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother.  Proverbs 18:24 Now to Him who is able to keep you from falling, and to make you stand in the presence of His glory blameless with great joy, to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen.    Jude 1:24-25 ( From the devotional "God's Calling )

WFW ~ STAND.....& "IMMUNE FROM EVIL" ~

Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God: Praying always...... Eph 6:13-18

God At EventideGod At Eventide


Immune from Evil

Evil was conquered by Me, and to all who rely on Me there is immunity from it.

Turn evil aside with the darts I provide.

Rejoicing in tribulation is one dart.

Practicing My Presence is another.

Self-emptying is another.

Claiming My Power over temptation is another

You will find many of these darts as you tread My Way and you will learn to use them adroitly, swiftly. Each is adapted to the need of the moment.

blessings to you and yours this day and always ...

In Other Words Tuesdays ~Ministry to the "suffering world".~

This is today's quote for "In Other Words Tuesdays"

over the weekend i read it and was thinking what this quote says or means to me......

I was agreeing in my thoughts with it.

How do i relate with others who suffer?

In my work with patients with Alzheimer and dementia for example.....?

When i see suffering around me........

When i suffer myself who do i run to?

Do i seek others who i can identify with..?

Another part of the quote says God gave an role to suffering people .....

and suffering gives credibility in an 'suffering world"!

The thought crossed my mind that:

" To relate with suffering to reach the ones who suffer....

To talk so to say the same language"

You need to identify with the suffering"

You must be aquainted with sorrow.........!!

The person who is the best aguainted with sorrow was/is 

JESUS CHRIST!

Jesus Suffers With Us

In Philippians 3  Paulus said

^10-11I gave up all that inferior stuff so I could know Christ personally, experience his resurrection power, be a partner in his suffering, and go all the way with him to death itself. If there was any way to get in on the resurrection from the dead, I wanted to do it. 

Revelation 3:20

 ^20-21"Look at me. I stand at the door. I knock. If you hear me call and open the door, I'll come right in and sit down to supper with you. Conquerors will sit alongside me at the head table, just as I, having conquered, took the place of honor at the side of my Father. That's my gift to the conquerors!  

The best person to minister to people who suffer is Jesus Christ and we as followers of Christ must be His hands and feet in this suffering world....

We bring Him ;His Message...His Love......and all that He wants to be in and through us to the suffering world. 

We are linking up with Kathryn today at expectant hearts, please join us.

My Walk @ Talk..........~ My WILL your JOY ~

Where/How do i start......?
I'm struggling in an way how to "blog' and what to blog about?
When i opened this blog beginning of 2009...I gave it the name as you see "My Journey".
It was like an kind of "New years resolution" to put so to say "pen on paper" about the "thoughts @ directions" i get from God  while i'm traveling through 'life's Journey".

I felt God wanted to learn me about himself while blogging and encountering other "christians bloggers".
I tried to find my way through "blogland" and indeed learned alot and am still learning. Also i get  more and more encouraged to keep on focussing on God's will and goals for me and my family's life.......


I choose to link-up with meme's who stimulate my christian growth....; foccussing on the bible through verses.......On thursday's bringing thanks to the Lord and friday's focussing on prayer for and with eachother.

For some weeks now : I am debating in my mind to find an way how to share about ; "My walk and talk" so to say with The Lord......
It felt like God wants me to share it ...and He knows the purpose.......
I was debating about it because it feels strange to share those thoughts/prayers with the "outside world" ........My walk and talk!!??
I must say outside the linking-up posts i blog some  about topics that came to my mind.......i believe it was on fathersday and with some verses out of the bible what made me wonder......"Life's Journey.....~ My soul find rest in God Alone~" @"WOW " DEAR FATHER God
When i made those blogs i experience kind of victory over feelings of insecurity about my writings ( also not in my "native" language) and like after my "fathersdaypost" an release in my 'spirit' i was able to share and like "the Holy Spirit' could get more way in myself......
For me that i felt clearly an release of an "kind of bondage " made me think and pray more deeply ...and the same time my sister in Christ "One heart" shared about " Way of Worship" to the Lord.......

I believe that "My Walk and Talk " with The Lord.......;probably sharing my prayers and devotions of the day and my thought frame and maybe also the effect on my daily living .Must become the first priority on my blog....
It will give God's spirit more way overhere and also in myself.......
To Him and him Alone i want to bring Glory....In "My Walk" ;and blogging became an part of my walk in and with Christ......and "My Talk (prayers)" to the Lord.....i want to reflect my love to Him because HE LOVED ME FIRST!


On my shelf since my teen years was always an book "God's Calling" Now i know that is the original name because i encountered it in the dutch version" Jezus Spreekt"

I got it from my "great aunt " Esselien " I can picturing her dancing or playing music or singing now or chatting with the Lord because she loved to chat....Also with me as an child....Really found memories to recall. My favorite time was to sleep with her in her "master-bed" in the afternoons or evenings chatting a long try to get her attention while she was reading or writing in her dairy or writing  with her 'penpals' all over the world........
One day i recall i asked her why she reads "Jezus Spreekt" every day and she told me about the book...the history and that it inspires her especially that it where messages to 2 woman who wanted to listen to The Lord and follow.......and that is what she want also for her life.......
So i began to read also in it and one day she gave me one as present..... and that was before my traveling to Europe......Along those years i have seasons of not looking in it but there are periods and days i see it and pic it up........
There is now also an companion book "God at Eventide"
So today i share out of this book
 

My Will - Your Joy

Our Lord and our God. Lead us, we beseech Thee. Lead us and keep us.

You can never go beyond My Love and Care.  Remember that.  No evil can befall you. Circumstances I bless and use must be the right ones for you.

But I know always that the first step is to lay your will before Me as an offering, ready that I shall do what is best, sure that, if you trust Me, what I do for you will be best.

Your second step is to be sure, and to tell me so, that I am Powerful enough to do everything ("The hearts of kings are in My rule and governance"), that no miracle is impossible with me ("With God all things are possible" and "I and My Father are one").

Then leave all with Me. Glad to leave all your affairs in a Master Hand. Sure of safety and protection. Remember you cannot see the future. I can.

You could not bear it. So only little by little can I reveal it to you. Accept My Will and it will bring you joy.

The Lord is thy keeper; the Lord is thy shade upon thy right hand. Psalm 121:5

Now to Him who is able to keep you from falling, and to make you stand in the presence of His glory blameless with great joy, to the only God our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen.    Jude 1:24-25

( Today's reading out of an devotional book " God Calling" )

Thank You Father, Thank You Lord Jesus, Thank You Holy Spirit
I worship and honour You this moment
Your Word Father is precious to me and like water to quench my thirst.......
Your LOVE and CARE Lord will be always there for me.....NO evil will befal me......
Circumstances you are blessing and using.........
Oh Lord HAVE YOUR WAY ..........
I TRUST MY LIFE and of my loved ones in YOUR hands our present and future ....Yes Lord you know BEST and are the beginning and the end of everything and of our life's.....
Quench our thirst with YOUR  Word of wisdom....with Your Word of Life....with Your living Word Your Son Jesus Christ........Have Your Way Lord Jesus take in Your place ALL Your place...
Captivate our hearts and mind..........
Your love for us Lord Jesus is what our hearts need
Your love Lord blows my mind away and made me stretch my hands up to You Lord Jesus as reverence Lord that i need You more than ever and that i adore and worship YOU.
Yes lord i am nothing without You.
Forgive me Lord for all the times i am seeking my own will...going my own way.......
Take my will and align it with our Father's will.....Break what needs to be broken.....cut what needs to be cut of ...........
Let your spirit come down and flow Lord freely in our Life.......
Have Your way.......
Let Your Joy  and Peace be ours in all circumstances 
Thank You Lord Haleluya 
Amen 

From an devotion to study in the bible..........

Eternal Life June 27
ETERNAL Life is a matter of VISION.

Spiritual Vision is the result of knowledge
which engenders further knowledge.

"And this is Life Eternal ... to know Thee
the only True God and Jesus Christ Whom Thou
has sent."Eternal Life.

Eternal in so far as the quality, the character
of the Life Is concerned. Being of God it implies
immortality.
It is My Gift of the Life that is Mine. Therefore
it must be Power-Life. This is your Life, to
absorb, to live in, and through.
"He that believeth bath eternal life."
God At Eventide A Companion Volume To God Calling 
 

I let this devotion "sink in" this sunday afternoon and did an surge in 'biblegateway' on the word knowledge
There are an lot of verses on this subject but 2 peter 1 confirmed to me what was said in this devotion!
We need to look always in our bibles if what we hear or read is sustained by it.......

2 Peter 1 (The Message)

 ^1-2I, Simon Peter, am a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ. I write this to you whose experience with God is as life-changing as ours, all due to our God's straight dealing and the intervention of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ. Grace and peace to you many times over as you deepen in your experience with God and Jesus, our Master.
[ NIV  ²Grace and peace be yours in abundance through the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord.] 

Don't Put It Off

 ^3-4Everything that goes into a life of pleasing God has been miraculously given to us by getting to know, personally and intimately, the One who invited us to God. The best invitation we ever received! We were also given absolutely terrific promises to pass on to you—your tickets to participation in the life of God after you turned your back on a world corrupted by lust.  ^5-9So don't lose a minute in building on what you've been given, complementing your basic faith with good character, spiritual understanding, alert discipline, passionate patience, reverent wonder, warm friendliness, and generous love, each dimension fitting into and developing the others. With these qualities active and growing in your lives, no grass will grow under your feet, no day will pass without its reward as you mature in your experience of our Master Jesus. Without these qualities you can't see what's right before you, oblivious that your old sinful life has been wiped off the books.
 [ NIV  ⁵For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; ⁶and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; ⁷and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love. ⁸For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. ⁹But if anyone does not have them, he is nearsighted and blind, and has forgotten that he has been cleansed from his past sins.]

 ^10-11So, friends, confirm God's invitation to you, his choice of you. Don't put it off; do it now. Do this, and you'll have your life on a firm footing, the streets paved and the way wide open into the eternal kingdom of our Master and Savior, Jesus Christ.

To put the words of both the NIV and The message version beside eachother made me understand the "GROWTH" ( maturing in my experience with our Master Jesus )better ....

Thank You Lord Jesus for Life...for eternal Life for our daily life with and through You and You alone.
Grant us more and more knowledge of You and form our character.
let self-control,perseverance,godliness,kindness and love be seen in us everyday of our life. Amen

"WOW"~ DEAR FATHER GOD..........~

Dear Father God.....YOU KNOW .....my name,my every thought, YOU ARE

Fifth Sunday after Pentecost
Watchword for the Week -- If we live by the Spirit, let us also be
guided by the Spirit. Galatians 5:25

1 Kings 19:15-16,19-21; Psalm 16
Galatians 5:1,13-25; Luke 9:51-62

We have all become like one who is unclean and all our righteous deeds
are like a filthy cloth. Isaiah 64:6

The Son of God had provided purification for sins. Hebrews 1:3 (NIV)

Lamb of God, your love for us is evidenced in your dying for us while we
were still sinners. Through your death we are reconciled. Open our
hearts and search our ways so we may accept this gift so freely given.
Amen.  

Worship to The Lord ~ Psalm 51....Song.....Isa 64:8 ~

Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.    

Do not cast me from your presence or take your Holy Spirit from me

And grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me.

Then I will teach transgressors your ways, and sinners will turn back to you. 

O Lord, open my lips,

 and my mouth will declare your praise.

You do not delight in sacrifice, or I would bring it;

 you do not take pleasure in burnt offerings.

The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart,

 Yet, O LORD, you are our Father.  We are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand. – Isa 64:8

Fearless Friday ~ prayer for an strong " 91 year old " woman! ~

An picture made on my "nene" Dina's 90th birthday exactly 1 year ago.
God added another year to the life of this STRONG WOMAN.As i called her always
" MY NENE DINA "
She carried me around as an baby.....
She wiped my tears away as an child.
She laughed with me and had an listening ear for me
She teached me about God.
She learned me to pray
She helped me with my school work
She brought me to painting lessons and music lessons...
She learned me to cook delicious dishes and gave me this example in her kitchen

She called me her Granddaughter.
She spoke wise words to me as an teen and as an adult.
She prayed for me and always says she prays for me and my family.
I knew and know she has me in her heart and SO DO I !

On this FEARLESS FRIDAY


Pray with me over her her "Year psalm" 91

Because "Nene" Dina dwells in the secret place
Of the Most High,
  She shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

She will say of the Lord,
You are My Refuge and my Fortress:
My God;
In You will I trust.

Surely You will deliver me from
The snare of the fowler,
And from the deadly pestilence.

You shall cover me with Your feathers,
And under Your wings shall I trust.
Your truth shall be my shield and buckler.

I shall not be afraid of the terror by night;
Or of the arrow that flies by day;

Or of the pestilence that walks in darkness;
Or of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.

A thousand may fall at my side,
And ten thousand at my right hand,
But it shall not come near me.

Only with my eyes will I behold and see the reward of the wicked.

Because I have made the Lord,
Who is my Refuge,
Even the Most High,
My dwelling place,

There shall no evil befall me,
Neither shall any evil come near my house.

For You shall give Your angels charge over me,
To keep me in all of my ways.

They shall bear me up on their hands,
Lest I dash my foot on a stone.

I shall tread upon the lion and adder;
The young lion and the serpent
I shall trample under foot.

Because I have set my love upon You,
Therefore You will deliver me.

You will set me on high,
Because I have known Your Name.

I shall call upon You,
And You will answer me.
You will be with me in trouble;
You will deliver me,
And honor me.

For the rest of my  life You will satisfy me,
And show me Your salvation.

 Amen Amen

Peace of The lord will be with her in 

Jesus Name Amen

For more fearless Friday and for your prayer request head over to " Free Spirit Haven" or post your request overhere in my comments. I set this day aside to pray with other bloggers and am honored to do so for you.

Updated the post some hours later 

I love to see God's Word on my blog and this vers(es) i am also THANKFUL for today!!
I read them probably more than once before but never in the "Message version" and today it was brought under my attention.......

Romans 8:28-38 (The Message)

 ^26-28Meanwhile, the moment we get tired in the waiting, God's Spirit is right alongside helping us along. If we don't know how or what to pray, it doesn't matter. He does our praying in and for us, making prayer out of our wordless sighs, our aching groans. He knows us far better than we know ourselves, knows our pregnant condition, and keeps us present before God. That's why we can be so sure that every detail in our lives of love for God is worked into something good.

 ^29-30God knew what he was doing from the very beginning. He decided from the outset to shape the lives of those who love him along the same lines as the life of his Son. The Son stands first in the line of humanity he restored. We see the original and intended shape of our lives there in him. After God made that decision of what his children should be like, he followed it up by calling people by name. After he called them by name, he set them on a solid basis with himself. And then, after getting them established, he stayed with them to the end, gloriously completing what he had begun.

 ^31-39So, what do you think? With God on our side like this, how can we lose? If God didn't hesitate to put everything on the line for us, embracing our condition and exposing himself to the worst by sending his own Son, is there anything else he wouldn't gladly and freely do for us? And who would dare tangle with God by messing with one of God's chosen? Who would dare even to point a finger? The One who died for us—who was raised to life for us!—is in the presence of God at this very moment sticking up for us. Do you think anyone is going to be able to drive a wedge between us and Christ's love for us? There is no way! Not trouble, not hard times, not hatred, not hunger, not homelessness, not bullying threats, not backstabbing, not even the worst sins listed in Scripture:

   They kill us in cold blood because they hate you.
   We're sitting ducks; they pick us off one by one.
None of this fazes us because Jesus loves us. I'm absolutely convinced that nothing—nothing living or dead, angelic or demonic, today or tomorrow, high or low, thinkable or unthinkable—absolutely nothing can get between us and God's love because of the way that Jesus our Master has embraced us.
