I enjoy sitting in my favorite napping chair in our “outdoor living room”, the gazebo, which faces the gardens and bird feeders. I can see and hear the variety of birds that visit each day. For the third year my mama wren has returned to keep me company. I can read, write, worship and pray all while I am surrounded by beauty.
Another favorite summer activity is grilling outdoors and dining in the gazebo. I love the flavor of foods cooked on the charcoal grill. Fresh caught trout, homemade pizza, bbq chicken wings, and turkey brats…yum! I have summer dinnerware in a variety of colors to create festive, casual or romantic moods.
Heavenly nights…oh so special when they include messages directly sent by God. I am in awe of how much God loves me. For many years I have been blessed with the gift of discernment and intuition regarding people and events. With wisdom, grace and discernment I have made many decisions in my life that have proven to be both beneficial and in line with what I believe is God’s will for me.
I have also had dreams that have had significant meaning and have been confirmed through other events, conversations and prayer. God has been good to me. He has protected me and lifted me up through the pain and suffering of this incurable illness that I battle every day. He has given direction and confirmation for decisions we have needed to make. God has made it clear to me that He will be with us no matter what the circumstances.
This winter I experienced God in a way I never expected…He sent a messenger directly to me. It was an encounter which included information, encouragement and motivation to remain steadfast and strong. A second visit came this spring offering more specific information and again words of encouragement.
From the Book of Daniel:
…again the one who looked like a man touched me and gave me strength. “Do not be afraid, you who are highly esteemed,” he said. “Peace! Be strong now; be strong.” When he spoke to me, I was strengthened…
