“I know that as for me and as a parent my son is one of my top priorities in life..and everything that I do for him I do from my heart and I do to the best of my ability..because he means the world to me..and the same for us with the Lord..God loves each of us as if there were only one of us..and everything He does..He does for our own good..and everything He gives is what He knows we need at the moment and at that time in our lives..for our Lord knows best for each of us..and He may not always give us what we want and or the moment that we want it..but He gives to us what He knows we can handle..for a lot of people when they have everything they want in life..they never really get to a place as to where their needing or desiring more of God..Amen..because they’re contented because nothing goes wrong for them in their lives..so the same with us as a parent we always give our kids what we feel they can handle at that point in time in life..we don’t give them everything so to speak that their wanting..for sometimes we teach them that hard work and persistence pays off in life..Amen..so we teach them to work hard..we teach them that life is about having patience as they wait for what their working for..for as the scripture says in due season we shall reap if we faint not..Galatians 6:9..Amen!”

“But the same for us..no matter what were getting to no matter what were not getting..my heart and my prayer is that were always thankful for everything we have and everything that we’ve been so blessed with in our lives..because a heart of thankfulness always brings a life of happiness and true and lasting contentment..and we’re told to be thankful for everything in our lives..1 Thessalonians 5:18..for the Lord knows for the most part that a whole lot of us would walk away from Him if we had all the money we so desired..if we had all the riches that this ole world could bring..I will even go as far as to saying that even for some if they were never sick or felt bad they would never probably pray the way that they pray if all was well in their lives..for He knows when we’ve reached that place as to where if we never got another blessing that we still would still praise and seek His face because we love Him..Amen..and not because of what He has done or does daily for us..but just because of who He is..Amen..so my mind always goes to the story in the word of God were the son wanted his father to give him his portion of goods..so really his father didn’t want to give it too his son because really he knew he wasn’t quit ready..but he decided to go ahead and the son takes his goods and his fortune and off he goes living his life the way he so desired to live it..but he wasted all that he had on bad choices and bad decisions..to only be left with nothing..and he ends up in a pigs pin eating the very food that the pigs would have to eat..and so he comes to himself..and he says I would rather be a servant in my fathers house if only he will take me back..and so the man gets up and goes to his fathers house and his father from a distance sees his son coming home..and he runs to meet him with arms wide open..and he takes him in..and he places a ring upon his hand..and he gives his son the biggest party ever to welcome him back home again..Luke 15:11-24..Amen!”

“For you see our Lord knows where we are in life..and what were in need of to what were doing..and whether were there in life..or whether we’ve drifted, our God stands waiting on us to come back to Him..with arms wide open..and it says that the angels in heaven rejoices over one sinner that comes home..Luke 15:10..so today whatever you have in life to whatever you don’t have..just be thankful for all that you do have..for once again if we can be faithful over little..the Lord says He would make us rulers over much..Matthew 25:23..He knows what we can and what we cannot handle..and when the Lord sees fit that we get more or even if we get less in our lives..always know that that Lord knows whats best..so let us trust Him and His ways..for His ways are completely and forever perfect..for it is in His name, Jesus’ name, that 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
