Even tho I may not be on the RUN…I need to learn RESTING is just as FUN!

Hello to ALL! :) Hope this finds you doing AMAZING! I find myself these past couple of weeks just in ‘chill out’ mode. You know that place where everything seems to be moving SLLOOWWLLYY…and no matter what you try and FIND to do nothing makes the season go quick enough?! But in it im learning that REST is required before a major journey! So im learning to just relax …go on a few walks…cook a little bit (more than just an instant oatmeal packet!) and drink some hott tea while wearing a sweatshirt..praying that the snow here in KC will come fast..(Even though its 80 something degrees here!…) hahha …im sure my mother would appreciate the cooking joke! Anyways lately the Lord has had me on a quest to CLEAN OUT my heart. He has really given me this desire to live as a women with a PURE heart before the Lord. One who has an undivided FOCUS and a whole heart surrendered to him. The things he can do with us when we walk with ‘clean hands and a PURE HEART..’ So I have been asking the Lord to rid me of any deep..hidden…covered.. hurt or bitterness. I think its SO important that we daily ask the Lord to show us the things we have hidden or allowed to take root in our hearts. But its about  surrender on OUR part. He wont go where he is not allowed. A friend of mine shared a quote with me and it totally rocked my world It says this..

” BITTERNESS is the POISON we drink hoping the OTHER PERSON gets sick”

 !!!!!!!!!!…..So may the Lord clear out our hearts today…take away ALL bitterness …..hurt..offense and pride! For its not only others these hidden sins may hurt….its our futures….calling and HEARTS that will be destroyed! Give me a PURE heart Lord…. A PURE HEART
