“So somewhere between my home and my travels to West Virginia last week..I lost my letters that I had in my bible from my mom and my dad..and I have looked everywhere for them..had Erik search the truck and I have searched my car..called my mom last night and ask her to search for them in the bedroom I sleep in while there..and to no avail they haven’t shown up..Amen..and it really does hurt my heart..because they meant everything to me..Amen..more so than gifts I could’ve ever received..them letters meant so much..Amen..but as I sit here this morning..of course you all know that I have been praying about them..Amen..and I know that if they are here or there..they will show up..Amen..because I think about God and His goodness and at how He cares about everything that concerns us..Amen..and at how the many different times in my life that I have been looking for something and think that it was gone and somehow it would show up..Amen..or at how I remember a few weeks back that Erik and I had finished eating and we walked past this gum ball machine and I didn’t have my purse on me..and Erik didn’t have a quarter or any change on him..but if any know me they know that I love gum..Amen..and so any who I go to the rest room and well laying there in the bath room stale was a quarter..Amen..lol..I know its funny but thats just the little things that God does to let us know that He hears our hearts..and He cares about it all..from the biggest of things to the smallest of things in our lives..Amen..He wants to bless us..Praise the Lord!”

“But as well anytime I think about losing something or that I have lost something I always think about the word of God as to where it says that God leaves the ninety nine to seek out that one that is lost..Luke 15:4..Amen..that He comes for us..Amen..that is so wonderful..think about it..us in all our messes of life..us in our turning away from Him..to doing our own thing so to speak..to not listening..to walking in the way that we know we shouldn’t be walking..that God our Father comes for us..Amen..that He pursues us..in the struggles..in the mess..in the pain..in the dark..in it all..that God comes and seeks and searches for us..Amen..He pursues us..regardless of any of it..He still wants us..that is incredible..Amen..because no one else is like that..us in our sinful selves turn and walk away from people who have wronged us..or talked about us..who brought heartaches to us..we can turn so fast and leave it all..Amen..but God never does He ever..walk away from us..He runs to us..He comes even when we don’t even want Him too come..Amen..there He is..He just shows up on the scene..Amen..He draws us to Him..always until our final breathe..God never stops..not ever..Amen..so this morning..just know that God loves you..Amen..that He cares about everything that concerns you and troubles you in your life..He wants to hear all about it..Amen..He wants you to let it out..everything..Amen..so don’t ever forget that in your life..whatever your facing..whatever you are going through..that we do have a Heavenly Father..as the song sings and as the song says..with eyes full of mercy and a heart full of love..He really cares when your head is bowed low..so consider the lilies and then you will know..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 ❤
