Just Walk the Walk

I was reading the book of Joshua this week. As I was reading about the City of Jericho I decided to do some research. I found out the walls around the city were enormous, one was 6 feet thick and 20 feet high and the inner wall was 12 feet thick and 30 feet high. Then there was a 15 foot guarded walkway between the two walls. This was literally mind boggling to me as I thought of how God had the people just walk around it six days and on the seventh day when they shouted, He brought it down flat. Imagine that???

As I read more I realized the City was all that stood between God's people and the promised land. It had to come down for them to enter into God's promises. The walls represent whatever it is in our lives that stands between us and God's blessings or perfect will for our lives.

So I ask myself, what walls do I have up that need to come down? What is standing between me and God's best for my life. There isn't much let me tell you....I have given it all up, everything I can think of. I don't pretend to know anything about anything. All I know is I need God and He has the answers and He has the power.

All of the things that have happened in my life and my children's lives and the lives of people I know... have brought me to a point of realizing I am not in control and if there is ever going to be victory in my life it will because He fought the battle, not me!!!

Every ounce of pride I may have had, every tiny bit of knowledge, every shred of me has been brought down. I have been broken, tried, tested, worn down to the point of I just wanted to quit.

BUT!!! I didn't and I haven't. I am done crying, I am done begging, I am done!!! I know He is showing me that he is always victorious, I belong to Him and so does everything else. Who am I kidding? I don't control anything. I am just to walk the walk like Joshua and the people did. They wanted to fight, they wanted to depend on the arm of the flesh, but God said No! You just walk it out, I will fight the battle. Just be obedient, just surrender your will to mine, It's my battle not yours!! So here I am with my white flag in the air and I sure am peaceful, it is so much easier to do things His way!!

I AM BACK!!!

I could not seem to post for awhile, I finally had to upgrade and get more disc space so now I am back. I didn't know what was causing the errors, so hopefully I haven't been abandoned during my absence!! I have missed all of you.

I think I fixed it...

This is a test... Eddie

I haven't been able to post, this is a test.

Ok, I am hoping this posts, I know I may be rambling, but I am amazed as I contemplate everything I touch, think, feel is connected with Him.

I am reminded daily of how each and every day I am more aware of how it is all about Him. Every day, every moment, it is about Him.When I wake up, He woke me up, when I go to work, He blessed me with my job, when I interact with someone, He created them, when my children call, they were Gifts from Him, when I am driving, He blessed me with a car that was made from the things he created and the wisdom man had to build it came from Him.The ability to drive came from him and when I eat, He is the one who created the seed, the plants, the fish, the fowl, the cattle. The love I have for my husband came from Him for He is love, everywhere around me, the people I work with, He formed them in their mothers womb, the bed I sleep on has cotton in it that came from a sheep He created, the pillow I lay my head on, the materials came from animals, plants, the bed came from wood from a tree God created!!Everything!! was made from things He created, the stars in the sky, the wind that blows my hair, the water I drink.

So now the question I ask myself now, is how do I act, react, think, speak, pray, live, eat, touch love? It all matters. It matters.Glory to God, everything belongs to Him, every little detail!! He's amazing!!
