My Friends… I struggle to find words that are meaningful enough to express to you how life changing.. how powerful.. how purpose filled.. how God Moving .. a “YES” to GO and serve on one of these Mission Trips can be for not only the lives that you touch but for YOU 🙏🏻

I went in August and am forever changed. I am planning on going back on at least 2, and if God leads and provides, maybe all 3 groups if I am needed. We will answer any questions .. So Ask! And please Pray for all 3 groups to filled, supported, and to serve the needs of the people in the DR and here. 🙏🏻

🍁 Last night as I was preparing to go speak to the Ladies Group at Church, I opened one of my journal books (as you can see I am not too savvy at “Journaling” 🤦🏻‍♀️) and there was My Leaf that was a activity and discussion at Josie Rader’s Fall Retreat last year and I was immediately blessed by that little reminder of why I chose that leaf … THE CENTER VEIN WAS SOLID AND STRONG (JESUS) AND SUPPLIED OUTWARD TO NOURISH TO THE EDGES … 🙏🏻 how much God planted in my heart from that day and helped me see the way to supply His Love outward!

🍂 We are hosting a Faith & Fitness Studio Fall retreat at Memory Lane Cabins on Nov 1-2 and would love to have you!

6 Seek the Lord while he may be found;
call on him while he is near.
7 Let the wicked forsake their ways
and the unrighteous their thoughts.
Let them turn to the Lord, and he will have mercy on them,
and to our God, for he will freely pardon.
8 “For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
neither are your ways my ways,”
declares the Lord.
9 “As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.
10 As the rain and the snow
come down from heaven,
and do not return to it
without watering the earth
and making it bud and flourish,
so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater,
11 so is my word that goes out from my mouth:
It will not return to me empty,
but will accomplish what I desire
and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.
12 You will go out in joy
and be led forth in peace;
the mountains and hills
will burst into song before you,
and all the trees of the field
will clap their hands.
13 Instead of the thornbush will grow the juniper,
and instead of briers the myrtle will grow.
This will be for the Lord’s renown,
for an everlasting sign,
that will endure forever.”

🙏🏻 God sees Us and I am Here as a Witness!

Last Sunday in church my tears were flowing during worship… a lot of tears… and I needed a tissue and had none … without asking or knowing anyone even saw my tears.. from behind God moved Karen to hand me a box! He saw ME!🙋🏻‍♀️

This morning my heart hurts as a mom because my firstborn went to heaven 23 years ago on this date and God sees ME! 🙋🏻‍♀️

Every devotion that I have opened this morning to gain my daily strength is perfectly meant for ME. 📖 To heal me, to redirect me, to give me hope, to confirm my purpose… AND HE WILL DO THE SAME FOR YOU!!!

PLEASE ASK JESUS INTO YOUR HEART AND TEST HIM AT HIS WORD… HE INVITES US TO DO THAT!

“Test Me now in this,” says the Lord of hosts, “if I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you a blessing until it overflows.”
–Malachi 3:10

I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never be hungry again. Whoever believes in me will never be thirsty.
John 6:35

Devotion Mom Heart Moments:

IF A TABLE COULD TALK, I know it would tell of innumerable moments. Toddlers munching on bits of food and Cheerios scattered over plastic place mats. Birthday breakfasts with cinnamon rolls, mugs of hot tea, and presents companioned by words of love and appreciation. Warm soup and stories shared on cold winter nights.

But souls grow by seasons as well. As we celebrate the passage of time by establishing and commemorating joyful traditions, honoring milestones (however small), cultivating a taste for greatness through the stories shared, books read, memories made, and faith lived out, we also make a path for growth and development.
Godly legacies are built, in other words, when we bring the life of Christ to the table through the grace of loving relationships and intimacy shared moment by moment. This is the essence of table discipleship.

What is my vision for my lifegiving table?

I picture that I am nourishing souls and spirits with both physical food and the everlasting food of the Word of God. I am providing grace and peace through gently accepting whoever joins us at the table. I am speaking hope forward by articulating my confidence in God’s love, faithfulness, and kindness for each person.
I picture that I can be an instrument through which God brings life, beauty, and redemption to the limitations of my marriage and my family—because, in His Spirit, I am filled with the life that always brings light to the dark places and redemption to the broken places.

What is your vision for your own lifegiving table?

💙 If only we would slow down and Love on our Lord and each other as a Child does.

The LORD is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him.

Nahum 1:7
Remember the short prayer you repeated before meals as a child? It went something like this: “God is great. God is good. And we thank him for our food.” You probably didn’t think much about what you were saying, but these simple phrases have profound meaning.

The middle sentence echoes the first line of this verse in Nahum — “God is good.” We may repeat these words as a child would, easily and without thought, but we need to hear their truth: The Lord is good, not evil or neutral. The fact that God is good means that he wants nothing but the best for us, and he will never lead us down the wrong path.

And God isn’t aloof. Goodness isn’t passive — he “cares for those who trust in him,” actively looking out for their best interests. This implies protection, direction, empowerment, rescue, and sustenance.

When you feel surrounded by violence and hatred and the world seems to be falling apart, remember that God is good. When you feel lost, abandoned, and adrift in a sea of anxiety, remember that God is good. When you experience gut-wrenching loss and pain and the “Why?” tears at your soul, remember that God is good. And he will be your safe refuge.

God is good!

Transformation:
a complete change in the appearance or character of something or someone.

Matthew 11:28
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest

1 Peter 5:7 KJV
Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

Matthew 16:24 Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me.
Jesus said “Cast your Burdens on Him so write it down, tear it up, Cast it away, and Pick up your cross, and Follow Him”

🙏🏻 This sweet couple has reached out in need of a prayer if you will take a moment with me in sending a message to the King on their behalf.

E Rivera Rosado and Bill have been in a war with Bill’s Brain Cancer and they need support and encouragement so if you have a prayer, a word, a scripture.. let’s send it. She joined me many times in praying for others and I am asking the Lord to bring Purpose to their battle. Give comfort and strength to Bill as he battles and E as she supports his need.

Isaiah 41:10: "So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand"

🙏🏻 Please Pray with and for us, the Faith & Fitness Studio Team as we prepare for our Mission Trip to Dominican Republic in August. Dear Lord use us as we pray to you that our efforts and our gifts will bring souls to You as we serve.

Psalm 147:12-20

12 Glorify the Lord, O Jerusalem!
Praise your God, O Zion!
13 For he has strengthened the bars of your gates
and blessed your children within your walls.
14 He sends peace across your nation
and satisfies your hunger with the finest wheat.
15 He sends his orders to the world—
how swiftly his word flies!
16 He sends the snow like white wool;
he scatters frost upon the ground like ashes.
17 He hurls the hail like stones.[a]
Who can stand against his freezing cold?
18 Then, at his command, it all melts.
He sends his winds, and the ice thaws.
19 He has revealed his words to Jacob,
his decrees and regulations to Israel.
20 He has not done this for any other nation;
they do not know his regulations.
Praise the Lord!
