Sending you more mojo— ((((Maia))))

Father, you are more than we could ever ask for. I thank you and love you for that. I pray that you continue to wrap Maia in your loving embrace.

I also lift up her family. You are such an amazing God. You are so much more than we could ever fathom.

Thank you for being a faithful Father. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to lift up one of your warriors.

Jesus, it is in your mighty name that we pray.

Amen.

Sending a few snippets from some other spiritual traditions -

Jewish (from bedtime prayer) "Spread over us the tabernacle of Thy peace, and guide us aright with good counsel from before Thee."

Buddhist - May you be safe, may you be well, may you be happy, may you be at peace.

May you find support in what you are doing now, and/or success in discovering what to do next, whatever would be best.

And thanks for sharing your struggles and successes with us.

thank you guys, the migraine thing has stopped. I rested all weekend and should not have because I have too much to do but then He gently reminded me that I worked all weekend last weekend and that I haven't been feeling well.

so ok.

deep breaths.

don't you hate that feeling of being behind and rushed?

like that will help fix anything. it won't. THAT feeling is horrible. Just refusing it.

praise for the extra work that came in for me, praise for doors opening, praise for the relief from the aura thing. praise for each and every one of you. and I ask for your blessing today as well.

I'm still in the soup but I feel better. basically.

but thats a lot. :-)

Ok so I'm fighting to keep my house. I need a good accountant, time and courage to locate compile and send in the mountains of paperwork for my lawyer.

They have me on a payment plan so far I've made the payments (to the lawyer)

I have way too much on my plate. My fault for doing nothing because depression. I know it. But anyhow. Spilled milk etc. Pray I get it all done. For energy and that I don't lose heart.

I think your prayers are holding me up.

This blessed me. I wanted to share it.TDJakes.

I think I needed to hear it today.

Buried to Blossom

Most people love the thought of being gifted and having the ability to do something great, but we don’t smile so brightly when we are placed in the refining processes of life. But what happens to a seed if it’s not planted?

We cannot rightfully ask our Vinedresser to skip out on the development of our lives simply because we are uncomfortable with being alone in dark places. To keep a seed from being planted is to condemn that seed to never realize its full potential. It is a fact that seeds are meant to be covered to die.

No matter who we are, where we are in life, or where we’ve come from, we must begin to appreciate the ugly stages of our inception. When we allow the Lord to shift our mindset, we begin to see that everything that has ever happened to us has happened for a reason. If we look back at the sprout that pushed itself through the ceiling of dirt above it, we discover reasons behind our adversity that were preciously invisible and imaginable but now are suddenly apparent and miraculous when we arrive at the fruit-bearing stage.

Looking back, I examine previous periods of my life and remember how fearful I was in the midst of some of them. Now standing upon just over forty years of ministry, I look at those places and realize they were integral to where God has taken me and where He will continue to take me. I see that each growth interval of my life where, at the time, I was certain I was about to meet my end, were seed stages for the next season. I could not have produced the fruit without the frustration. God could not ferment my fruit without the frustration. God could not ferment my fruit into His wine for maximum potency without my willingness to relinquish it to His winepress.

Though I have not liked the process, my faith has grown deeper as I discovered this new perspective. I have been changed by this shift in perspective as I accept that God never intended to lead me to a dead place and leave me there. The seeming death through which He escorted me was merely the precipice of a new beginning, and new beginning is what the planting and death of each seed is all about. Through those stages, I arrived at the truth: God wasn’t burying me – He was planting me!

Those areas and times in which the death of a dream, assignment, or vision seems to stalk your every move are nothing more than entrances into the next realm of your life. Do not run from them; embrace them. The proverbial death of what you are trying to keep alive will enrich the growth and lives of others.

Instead of condemning you to a graveyard, which is what you may feel, God is planting you in richer soil for greater fruit.

Sending continued strength and mojo ((((Maia))))

That was beautiful, Maia.

There are only two kinds of people in the end: those who say to God, "Thy will be done," and those to whom God says, in the end, "Thy will be done." All that are in Hell, choose it. Without that self-choice there could be no Hell. No soul that seriously and constantly desires joy will ever miss it. Those who seek find. Those who knock it is opened. -CS Lewis

Still praying...

Father, we still lift up Maia through all of these times, we ask that you remind her that you are still in charge.

Father, we ask that you lead, guide and direct her in the path she should follow.

God, I also pray that whatever happens in this situation, it points to your glory.

Let everything she and her family do, just glorify your excellence.

Let her come out of this with 10 fold of everything.

In your powerful and holy name I pray.

Amen

thank you. my hell work week isnt over and i'm barely 2/3 donewith what we have to finish. your prayers are holding me up. literally.

still working and havnt seen income improvement etc but am now hearing things in my spirit to encourage me.

thank you.

Father, we thank you for the encouragement that you've sent Maia.

Father, we wish to see your honor and whatever comes from this situation to be for your glory.

Father, we love you so much. You've been so good to me that I can't express into words what your love means to me.

I just want to be able to share my joy with Maia. Thank you for being an awesome God and thank you for Maia.

Father, continue to bless Maia and give her comfort and peace. We pray for her financial situation that you meet her needs as she puts this in your loving hands.

thank you.

heard several things over the past few days. so I think thats part of an answer to your prayers for me. wanted to thank you again and share

1. God is doing a NEW thing

2. Its through patience and faith that we receive the promises

3. talk about the promises not my problems

4. He keeps telling me about joy. 'my cup overflows'

i also keep hearing 'study my word" and 'feed my sheep'

so.one project done, two projects are 90% done and one more to do this week, then am going to focus on the legwork I have to do for the lawyers. keep praying for the income.

I think breakthrough is coming. I really do. this whole patience thing is not my cup of tea. and I need to stop complaining, right? lol

its funny I had someone ask me if I meant it when I said I heard from God. well yeah. prayer isnt just talking its listening.

Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.

Psalms 46:10 KJV

Your post reminds me of what I read while doing a Bible study with my children Monday.

The crux of the message was that we need to slow down and just listen.

That totally hits home with me. You are probably like everyone else and always have a million things going at one time. Even when I stop, I'm still playing on my phone and not totally listening for God.

Thank you for reminding me today.

Maia, how are you?

Well. I heard from my lawyer. To save my house I can declare bankruptcy.

And I stayed up all night working Sunday and finished a project. Was on my way to get food. Got pulled over. My license is suspended because of unpaid state taxes. So I got to park my car and walk home.

I ordered pizza. Lol.

I still need prayer.

I'm believing God to provide for me, all I need to get me out of this mess. He will. He said He would. I have the name of a good tax lawyer. I'm praying for the money to pay him and to get square with the state. I dont think I'm supposed to declare bankruptcy or not pay my bills. Need guidance. Theres a couple things I'm building that could help. Need prayer and wisdom for those.

I'd like to have Jesus just zap it all away. But He doesnt work like that.

And the Lord your God will clear out those nations before you, little by little; you may not consume them quickly, lest the beasts of the field increase.

Little by little.

Ok.

So my last project to finish has to be done today. Going to work on it. Just gonna keep praying. Uber to the grocery. Lol
