Oh Lord what a God sent word for me! I have been feeling such a revival lately. I have been having so many issues and God has helped me so so much...this message will be replayed over and over because every word has been ...just like right now...y’all saying...potato chips..I have always been a saltaholic...potato chips have been ..like I just here in the last couple of weeks regaining a healthier...walk..move my body..put forth an effort..have a routine...drink my water..yes you said fuel..one foot in front of the other. I have a had such a veil of confusion and oh so tired but God! This is like my testimony. I will..I can..I am worthy and I have all the ability because He lives even Bigger now in me. Thank you Lord for never leaving me and for giving me new life. Abundant and able. Praise His Holy name. Lost but now I am found. People sharing and loving on each other just like you have...Thank you and thank God for your love message to all of us😇🛐✝️❤️
A year later and I still feel like we are in 2020. Divorce, loss of home, empty nest, in-laws and my own parents breaking contact with me in April 2018, I am JUST seeing the blessings. "Count your blessings, name them one by one... Count your many blessings, see what God has done." God and the Holy Spirit often drop old hymns in my head and it completely changes my focus! In the last 5 months, I've been dumped by a boyfriend that I cared for deeply; I was in a car accident that totaled my vehicle and I am still without one as I still owed money on the other (I drive my cars into the ground. Not into other cars!); extended family has become distant as they don't quite know how to talk to me; I'm coming out of severe depression. MANY of the things you mentioned I have found "on my own." (I won't take full credit because I have the Holy Spirit with me at all times) Without a car, I am without a job, and I believe God allowed this on purpose. Removing things from my plate so that I would finally focus on ME. And Him. For 25 years I was running a household (including the "man" stuff like yardwork, home repairs. I even repaired our large appliances! Give me a challenge and I'll figure it out. RUclips helps!), homeschooling 3 kids at different levels with different learning styles, running a profitable sole proprietorship for 13 of those years where I was THE sales person, THE public speaker, THE team manager, THE marketing department, THE head of customer service, plus children's ministry leader, the cook, the maid, the keeper of 7 dogs, all while keeping a clean house with neighborhood kids in and out because I hosted Bible study! I would not trade those years for anything different. I was with my kids. Often 24/7. We had a 4 bedroom house so they could each have their own room and privacy. They added a trundle bed between the two twin beds in one room and the 3 of them slept wall to wall....and with some dogs. I am still amazed that they still wanted to be together after they spent all day, every day together. However sad my marriage was (husband was addicted to computer gaming and HE wanted the divorce. timed it for right after I finished raising the kids), I would go through that marriage again to have that very same life with my children. In April 2018, all of that LIFE died. My widowed next door neighbor invited me to move in with her. Along with my 2 remaining dogs. I rely on my dogs for comfort. I've always tried not to bog others down with my problems, yet I found that when I DID speak up, SOOOOOO many others were going through it as well. I feel blessed to be a vessel for Christ! People would thank me for my words and sometimes I couldn't remember what I said! I DO give God the credit. It is NOT me!!! I feel blessed to help others. I was chosen! My biggest take-away here is: when you wake up in the morning, go pee. If you have pets, let them go out to pee first! But BEFORE you even THINK about what you have to do for the day or LOOK at that to-do list, COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS. Say them out loud. Write them down. Know you are loved and are here for His purpose. He is not done with you yet. He may be molding you...or, as I felt, chipping away, but it is to prepare you for what's next. And my goodness!!! That reward is SO worth it. It's not here on earth. Heaven is going to be fantastic!!!
Thank you for sharing your testimony. So powerful that God had already prepared a place for you so that when it was time for you to leave the first home you had another home already prepared for you because you’d done the work focusing on Jesus doing the Bible studies with the neighborhood. Praise God for all our blessings thank you ABBA FATHER for your blessings and showing yourself in our everyday lives. In Jesus holy and matchless name amen 🙏🏿
This was suuuuccchhh a good episode. 😭. My soul needed this. Thank you Rebekah! Especially for the insights into your family through this episode. It really gave me perspective looking into my own life. Thanks you Provebs 31 Ministries!
