“So it’s been 13 days today that our lives have been in a crazy hectic whirlwind..I feel like we are in a huge tornado and somehow can’t find our way out of it just yet..Amen..but I do know that even in this storm and season of our lives that God our Father is truly with us..Amen..He has been in every single detail of it all..and He alone has worked it all together for our good..everything that the enemy means for harm thus far..God has turned it around for our good..(Romans 8:28)..Amen..when the reports looked so bad..God stepped in..Praise the Lord..for He alone is truly the Author and the Finisher of our faith..(Hebrews 12:2)..Amen..and without God we cannot make it at all whatsoever..and Erik and I both know this..we have the Lord fighting for us and He alone is victorious and He alone is the Mighty Warrior..(Jeremiah 20:11)..we stand on the promises of our Father that He is for us and not against us..and that ALL of His promises are yes and amen..(2 Corinthians 1:20)..Praise the Lord!”

“But I do know that I feel as if I am truly weak in body right now..not a spiritual weakness just a physical one..but I think its from the stress of everything that has been happening..for it has been one thing right after another..Amen..so Erik has been telling me honey we both have got to take this one day at a time..we both have got to have faith and confidence in the Lord..and we cannot doubt Him and His goodness to us..Amen..He says we are not looking ahead..we are not looking behind us..but we are gonna live right now in this day that Jesus has given to us..and we are gonna trust Him..Amen..because how many of ya know its easy to fall prey to many lies that the enemy tries to bring to us..mostly in our minds..Amen..but we know that we have got to stay prayed up and filled up and remain in this day not in our yesterday or our tomorrows..for we know that by the Lords stripes we are healed..(Isaiah 53:5)..and that everything He did on Calvary for you and I is ours to claim..that He defeated death hell and the grave..(Revelation 1:18)..Amen!”

“That He lives in us..and that He says that greater works will we do..(John 14:12)..Amen..so in this season of our lives..(Ecclesiastes 3:1-8)..it is difficult right now navigating it all..doing things that we’ve never had to do before..and pretty much growing..Amen..and I know that with growth there comes change..Hallelujah..but a good change for us all..when we are in a storm of life or feel like were getting pruned on..or rolling around trying to get up out of the dirt..there is something beautiful stirring up in it all..Amen..because God never lets anything happen to us that He alone doesn’t already know about..Amen..for He says I know you before I formed you in your Mothers womb..(Jeremiah 1:5)..He knows us..Amen..and He says I know the thoughts that I think towards you..thoughts of peace..and not of evil..to give you an expected end..(Jeremiah 29:11)..Praise the Lord!”

“So if you as well are walking down a hard road in life..then please by all means take it one day at a time..don’t let yourself get caught up in the what ifs of life..and fretting and worrying about things that has not yet happened..for each day of our lives is a gift..and it has a purpose for this day not for tomorrow or not to dwell on our yesterdays..but simply thankful for this beautiful and blessed day that is right now before our eyes..so let us unwrap our gift..let us have faith in the Lord..and let us go forth shining and sharing the gospel of Christ..taking our eyes off from us and placing them on another..remaining happy joy filled children of the Lord..for never forget we are blessed and we are highly favored of our Father..(Luke 1:28-31)..and He loves us with such an unconditional love..so know who you are and know just whom it is that you alone serve..Amen..for we serve the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords..and Jesus Christ is His name..Hallelujah!”

“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 ❤️
