“When you sit out on your path with the Lord..everything is not always gonna make sense..everything is not gonna be the way you think it should be..Amen..everything is changed and at times changed in a instant..when you are on the Lords pathway following Him and you totally surrender to Him and His calling that He has on your life..your plans and your desires at times doesn’t line up with Gods plan that He has..Amen..because how many of ya know that Gods ways are not at all like ours..Isaiah 55:8-9..Amen..when we surrender we will be like His disciples were..we will be those fisherman..and we will immediately the bible says drop our all and follow Him..Matthew 4:18-22..Amen!

“Is it gonna be different?..yes, it will be..is it gonna be something that you could’ve mustered up yourself?..no, not at all..it will be something that will totally take you off guard..it will be something that you would’ve never imagined for yourself..Amen..for you see God does take the foolish things of the world to confound the wise..1 Corinthians 1:27..Amen..is everyone gonna be happy for you in your surrendering to the Lord?..and His will and His plan for your life?..probably not at all..for I know all too well in my life when I did things that Erik and I both knew in our heart of hearts that it was what God wanted for us and our lives..there were many naysayers..people were totally against the plans that we agreed to with the Lord for us and our lives..for again how many of ya know that we still have to say yes to the Lord..even when He has reveled His plan for our lives..Amen!”

“And many may say well Mandi how do you know?.well, the Lord speaks to us through His word..through one another..through ideas..through confirmation through strangers..there are many ways God speaks if only we are willing and open to hear..Amen..but when He does I pray we all are more God pleasers in our lives..than people pleasers..Amen..for you see people don’t know what your life is to be like..But Jesus does..Amen..and when He speaks peace over your heart and your mind..and you know that ya know..well it doesn’t quit matter what others may say..or even what others may think or feel..you let them live their lives..and you just continue on living yours..following the leading and the guiding of our Heavenly Father..for yes we make our plans but God does direct our footsteps..Proverbs 16:9..and change happens..and usually for my life..it happens quickly..Amen..but wherever the Lord is leading me that is the very place I wanna be..and I do pray that you feel the same as I do..Amen..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
