BEYOND MEASURE

"OUR DEEPEST IS NOT THAT WE ARE INADEQUATE.

OUR DEEPEST FEAR IS THAT WE ARE POWERFUL BEYOND MEASURE. IT IS OUR LIGHT, NOT OUR DARKNESS, THAT MOST FRIGHTENS US.

WE ASK OURSELVES: WHO AM I TO BE BRILLIANT, GORGEOUS, TALENTED, FABULOUS? ACTUALLY, WHO ARE YOU NOT TO BE?
YOU ARE A CHILD OF GOD. YOUR PLAYING SMALL DOES NOT SERVE THE WORLD.

THERE IS NOTHING ENLIGHTENED ABOUT SHRINKING SO THAT OTHER PEOPLE WON'T FEEL INSECURE AROUND YOU. WE ARE ALL MEANT TO SHINE, AS CHILDREN DO.

WE WERE BORN TO MAKE MANIFEST THE GLORY OF GOD IN US. IT'S NOT JUST SOME OF US. IT'S IN EVERYONE.
AND AS WE LET OUR LIGHT SHINE, WE UNCONSCIOUSLY GIVE OTHER PEOPLE PERMISSION TO DO THE SAME. AS WE ARE LIBERATED FROM OUR OWN FEAR, OUR PRESENCE AUTOMATICALLY LIBERATES OTHERS"




(Marianne Williamson - and quoted by Nelson Mandela 1994 at his inauguration!

SchoolTALK

So here we go, after more than a week of sickness and a recent news that I was coming down with my first bronchitis, I started to feel better today. Antibiotics do the rest. I never drank so much in my life. I had a lot of time to think and pray and rest from the last two weeks that seemed like the hardest weeks I've had so far. Spiritual warfare, physical drain and some other stuff made it really really hard. One big lesson that i am learnign these days is not to be in JESUS' way, not to tak on HIS burden and to AGAIN just be myself!!! It seems that this is a lesson I need to learn and relearn again and again. As Psalm 118 verses 6 and 7 day so truthfully: my Lord is for me, so I will not be afraid- What can mere mortals do to me? Yes my Lord is for me and HE also helps me so I can look with TRIUMPH at those who hate me! This morning I was scheduled to speak at a Local Primary School (grades 4 to 7 which means fromt he age of 10 to 13). I was sooo looking forward to it. My topic was; YOU A A PEARL, YOU ARE SPECIAL and YOU HAVE CHOICE. I picked up Jesus' shortest parable in the BIBLE. Let me tell you this, it was fun and I once again experienced that I looove speaking, I looooove looking in a bunch of faces. I looove this. Thank God I was physically fit to go there this morning. I had been in bed for the last 5 days. I still have a bit of a Bronchitis and am mindful of what I do. I love my Jesus, really do!!!

RESTisWARFARE

I am figuring out more and more which is good and part of a growth process, I guess. My newest thoughts involve warfare and rest and how actually REST is a vital part of warfare. I even think it is the most important part in warfare. Warfare is not just standing with my amor on and quoting and believing Bible verses. It is not just binding the forces of hell and releasing the grace and blessings of heaven. It is mouch more. The secret of a good battle strategy is to know when you need to rest and how to do so. I am in the middle of that. I know taht God has gifted me with a tenacity and umph in prayer and warring. Yet I find it so hard to know when to rest and how to. I am in that phase right now. I have to say I am exhausted physically and spiritually. But then that is where I find my Lord, I crawl under HIS wings of refuge ( do you know the song REFUGE?) and comfort and then I sleep and then I memorize scripture and stand on HIS truth and hope! Warefare is not only about Ephesians 6 and God's armor and how to wear this one, but it is also about Psalm 91 and knowing that God commanded HIS angels to prtect me. It is also about Psalm 118:6-7 and knowing that HE is for me and with me and that HE helps me and that I will look in triumph at those who hate me. Warefare is to thank GOD in total peace that HE protects you right now! God bless!
