Romans 8:32 NLT
"Since God did not spare even His own son, but gave him up for us all, won't God who gave us Christ, also give us everything else?"
God never hesitated to give us His son, Jesus. there were no second thoughts, no questions. This is the depth of His love for us. He never hesitated to send us the only one who could save us - His son. Because of this we can be assured He will never with hold anything we need to be able to live for Him, to walk in complete freedom. The original way He designed us to walk!
I no longer need to beg God for that which I need.
- He is my provider
- He is my peace
- He is my healer
- He is my the one who takes care of me
- He is my wise counselor
In Him I have all I need to live. I will no longer questions Him, as I know He would not with hold from me. His love for me is too deep and too wide to comprehend. When I ask He is moved by my asking.
So how about you? Do you see God as being moved by your asking? Do you see Him as holding out till you "get it straight?" Or do you see God as the Father who loves his children to ask of him and to give to them? You know like the daddy that is wrapped around his little girls finger? Do you see God as wrapped around your finger. This isn't the "I can manipulate God to give me anything" type of statement. This is the daddy who gives good things to his children who knows when it is a good thing and knows when to say no to protect the child. But when it is not of harm to the child this Daddy is the kind of daddy who just cannot say no and LOVES to bestow good gifts to his children.
So I ask you again, do you realize that you captivate your heavenly Father's heart? You didn't do anything to deserve it, never could have. You can't do anything to earn it, and you never can! He just loves you to pieces. I dare you to ask with the boldness of Esther. With the child like heart of a little child to it's daddy. Go ahead, ask.

I am sure you all are wondering....
Is it done yet? Does she ever finish anything????
Well, yes I do finish projects (sometimes much later than I meant to...hee hee) and no we are not done yet. The heat wave here prevented us from finishing the painting up stairs as the paint was drying on the roller between the pan and the wall! I was constantly picking latex off the walls, so I put a stop to it all until it cools down. The down side to this meant that we wouldn't start back up again until school started. As many of you know we homeschool our children so "school starting back up" doesn't mean freedom or more time for me....it means less. Thus my Emerald Eye lady and I will work together once a month after the 18th.
I am hoping to have time the weekend of the 11th - 13th to up load some pictures of where we were and where we are now so that you all can see just how things are progressing.
Until then you will just have to do with words...so sorry.
Sorry I haven't posted recently but between trying to work as many days as both Emerald Eye Elf and I had avaiable to work together and then starting school with the kids by the 17th of August (yes we always start this early to get extra time off during the holidays and to end before Memorial Day) I just didn't have the time to post before. I should be posting at least once a month now with updates.
