You Will Always Fear What You Don't Understand

To understand me; first, know my struggle. To love me; you then have to feel my pain.

To Be Continued....

I knew this day was coming but I didn't know it would be this soon. I'm sorry I couldn't be there but you and I both know that it was in my best interest. God knew it would be to much for the both of us. Im happy that God answered my prayers and that you're home because now you're at finally at peace.
You finally get to get up, move around, dance and I get to see that big beautiful smile of yours. I laugh because I wonder if God allows s-curls in heaven? If so, i know you're getting a touch up by now! lol It's been awhile but I know you wanna look nice! :-) I know you're up there getting your nails done, ohh and let's not forget that pinky ring! I can just picture you with your dark purple lip stick just cheesing!
I'm reminiscing about the good times and just thinking about all the fun we had! Though there were bad times as well it didn't matter. Because we always made a way out of no way and i will always love you for putting up with me.
You will always be my pooh pooh and I will never forget you. I hope as the years go by that you continue to watch over me and that I always make you proud. You are my heart, my soul and now my angel! I love you Beulah Mae Lofton aka Cookie!!

God Opens and Shuts Doors

There are critical times in our lives when we especially need to know we are hearing clearly from God. It isn't always easy to know His voice from that of our own emotional reasoning. But I know from experience that God can open doors of opportunity that no one can close, and He can also close doors that we cannot open.

I spent many years trying to organize things I wanted to do in life. The result was frustration and disappointment. But I found that if we depend on God, He will give us favor and make things easy for us when we seek Him and His perfect timing. He leads one step at a time. If you take one step forward in the wrong direction, He will let you know before you go too far.

Be aware that His thoughts are above your thoughts. He sees the end from the beginning. All His ways are right and sure. He knows what makes sense for your life and He can make it happen. Hear from Him and you will not be deceived.

Prayer Starter: God, I trust You to open the right doors in my life and shut the wrong ones. Even when I don't know what to do, I have faith that I can hear from You and follow Your will.
