What can I say about 2014! Well, there’s a lot I can say…but one thing I will say and that is this…My God kept me!!! That ole devil thought he had me….he thought that he was gonna break me…he lied on me, he abused me, and he used me!!! BUT MY GOD!!! Hallelujah…He kept me!!! That ole enemy said I was gonna lose it all…that there was no way I was ever gonna come out this time!!! But my oh my!!! Once again!! MY GOD!!! He kept me!!! He has proven Himself over and over again and again to me…..that ole enemy never lets up….If He ain’t coming one way than he is coming another….alway trying to get Gods children to stop…to quit…to throw that towel in….but once again guys…never, ever, ever….give up….cause Our God is faithful!!!…1 Corinthians 1:9..He is true!!! and He is always on time!!!…Philippians 4:4…He is forever with us, even in the storms of life…Our God is there! For He never will He ever leave us nor ever forsake us…Deuteronomy 31:6…He is forever keeping us…Oh, let us praise His name!!! So the one thing I can say about 2014…is this…I grew…and I am continually growing…and I have grown closer to the Lord…through my heartaches…through my disappointments….and through my pains…I have grown and I grow closer than I have ever been….so when the enemy comes in like a flood…I am reminded that God said He would raise up a standard…Isaiah 59:19…so I don’t get myself to far down….cause I keep my eyes looking up…cause we all know that, that is the secret of life…looking up…not looking down…as woe is me…but lifting our heads and saying!!! Thank you, Jesus!!! You’ve kept me….You’ve brought me out!!! You’ve covered me!!! and you Dear Lord have always been so faithful!!! Thank you Father for your goodness….and Thank you Lord for your mercy and grace…see that ole devil  doesn’t know what to do when we praise our Lord in the midst of our storms….so as this New year rings in loud and clear for each of us….I pray that “2015” is a time and season of worship…a time and a season of praise….of shouting…and of dancing….let us be like David who would dance before the Lord..2 Samuel 6:14…and worship at His holy hill..Psalm 99:9….for we serve a magnificent Father….and He loves us so…so let us exalt the name of the Lord our God..Isaiah 25:1…and let His praises be upon our lips..Psalm 34:1…and let His love be seen on our faces…and His praises coming forth out of our mouths..James 3:10…Let this year be the year that we worship, love ,and live like we’ve never lived, loved and worshipped before!!…In Jesus’ name I do ask and pray…Amen and Amen!!! Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi
