| I haven't updated here in quite some time! Tonight as I sat in a quite house I became overcome with the feeling of contentment and joy. I had to take a moment to praise God for all of the blessings that he has bestowed on me. Right before Rick and I prayed together he pointed out a scripture that he wanted to read. It was one of those moments when two seperate moments connected and you get a revelation that God is trying to tell you something. Those to me are the most amazing moments and ones that will stick with me for a while. They are a beautiful reminder that I am not alone and he is involved personally in my life, today he whispered to me these words:
Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, Rejoice. Let your reasonableness be known to everyone. The Lord is at hand; do not be anxious about anything, but in everythin by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your request be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpassed all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. Phillipians 4:4-7
Wednesday night Merilee and her wise words had mentioned this verse to another lady, she couldn't remember where exactly it was but Romono jumped in there with Phillipians 4:4-8. I wrote it down with the mental note to meditate over it. So today when Rick read it to me I just smiled and was filled with peace.
Have a Great day everyone! | | |
| In Christ we have a love that can never be fathomed, a life that can never die, a peace that can never be understood, a rest that can never be disturbed, a joy that can never be diminished, a hope that can never be disappointed, a glory that can never be clouded, a light that can never be darkened, and a spiritual resource that can never be exhausted.

| A genuine revival without JOY in the Lord is as impossible as spring without flowers, or day-dawn without light. ~ Charles Haddon Spurgeon
 There is an indescribably JOY that lives in me but for some reason I find it hard to tap into at certain times. The life of a Christian should be filled with JOY in every circumstance. Why is it then that it is so hard to find? Did it ever occur to you that you are looking in all the wrong places? Christ is the only place in which you will find it, an everlasting and fullfilling JOY. There are other illusions called JOY that you can find to subdue you for awhile if that is what you are looking for, but I am guessing that that is not the kind of JOY that you seek to find. Here is where you can find it today if you too are looking for this divine JOY:
Though you have not seen him, you love him. Though you do not now see him, you believe in him and rejoice with joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory, obtaining the outcome of your faith, the salvation of your souls.
~ 1 Peter 1:8-9
JOYfully in Him,
Kelli

| "If I am going to have a busy day, I spend one hour with the Lord. If I am going to have a very busy day, I spend two hours with the Lord." Martin Luther
Don't forget to spend some one on one time with the Lord each morning to start your day off right. Does it feel impossible to have a meeting time with Him each day? It is difficult but with His grace it is possible to schedule it in. Get up an extra 15, 30, 45, or even an 1 hour earlier. Sacrafice a piece of your time in the morning before you run off to school, work, or just the daily activities by putting on some head phones and worshiping Him through music, or set up a reading plan and follow it each morning, or and pray for your day to come and ask the Lord to fill you with JOY for this is the day that He has made..................Psalm 118:24.
Let me hear in the morning of your steadfast love,for in you I trust.Make me know the way I should go,for to you I lift up my soul.
Psalm 143:8
JOYfully in Him,

| Open Skies
David Crowder Band
Praise Him under open skies
Everything breathing praising God
In the company of all who love the King
I will dance, I will sing
It could be heavenly
Turn the music loud,
life my voice and shout
From where I am
From where I've been
He's been there with me
He's built a monument
His very people
So let His people
Sing, sing, sing
And it's so wonderful
Just to be here now
[Chorus]
Praise Him under open skies
Everything breathing praising God
In the company
Of all who love the King
Praise Him under open skies
Everything breathing praising God
In the company of all who love the King
Let us dance, let us sing
It could be heavenly
Turn the music loud and sing
Lift your voice to heaven
Lift up your head and sing
To the One who gave His love
This is our offering
Lift your voice to heaven
Lift up your head and sing
To the One who gave His son
Here our lives we bring
From wherever you are
Wherever you've been
He's been there
So let His people sing
And it's so wonderful to be here now
Wherever you are wherever you've been
He's been there
I am in love with this song...........it is always a sure way to move my heart and soul. When this song is playing in our home it is always played loud and we are all shouting and dancing around to it. This song has been a comforting song as well. To think that through out my life, in all of the drama and painful experiences, wherever I have been he has been their with me is so comforting to me and that where I am now he is still with me. It is an amazing comfort to know that and always be assured that He will never forsake me and that I can always count on Him being there even if no one else is. We serve an Awesome God....and I praise Him.........I wish I could do it under open skies today!!
JOYfully in Him,
