He Is For Me

He is for Me

If He walks with God

If He shares His heart with God

If He is unashamed to be associated with God.

 

He is for Me

If He has placed the past behind Him

If He has decided to walk with His head held high

If He won’t be deterred by setbacks and barriers.

 

He is for Me

If He is determined to handle Me with dignity

If He has decided to stay with Me, and with Me only

If He has asked God to guide Him in how He can love Me completely.

 

He is for Me

If He remains accountable

If He remains humble

If He keeps Himself unspotted from this world’s enticements.

 

He is for Me

When He walks into a room and sees only Me

When His heart beats faster only when He sees Me

When He has asked God for Me.

 

Then, and only Then

Is He for Me.

 

Expectations

So what did you expect?

Painful Goodbyes

It’s 1-1-11, The first day of a brand new year and a new decade. HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Over the past few years I have made connections; some because of family ties (our family knew them, so by default I became connected), others because of work and others from churches I attended. Because I LOVE people dearly I am one who dislikes separation, strife or disagreements of any type – but I realize it is a part of life.

I Worship You…..

I’ve been reflective for the past year or so on many things. Some pertain to me, others to my son and yet others are definitely related to my beloved grandmother. What I have discovered, though, is that I need to spend more quality time basking in the presence of the One Who understands what bothers me and knows exactly how to comfort me. His comfort brings hope, a spring in my step and a gleam in my eye.

Real Love Hurts

I am learning about love and what it should look like. After taking a long journey down an undesired path several years ago, I am cautious about opening up my heart to others. Many will agree that we need to be cautious about opening up our hearts to others. Even in Proverbs 4:23 (NIV) it states “Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.”

But I wonder, will I be able to receive or show love when I am so cautious and closed?
