Growing in Grace

Are you one who doesn't see within.... spiritual growth?

Php 1:6 being confident of this, that He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.

Going through a new season of growing pains... sometimes it is hard for us to see the growth and change. One can only sense the soils restrictions... limits set by earthly weight and even by ones own self. Breaking through the soil...may be painful at times. The outcome from a new emergence we long to see.

We need to rest in the soil under the Son, because it is God who is watching and waiting for us to bloosom. It is the Lords purposes and plans that are preparing us. We need to "rest" on Php 1:6 that He (not I) who began a good work...(He not I) will carry it on....to completion.

Whisper...friend, soar boldly, being confidant...that in the soil of our confinements and weakness's....The Lord will carry it on...to completion! Ex. 19:4 2 Cor 3:18 In Christ, Brown Eagle

Matthew 14:29-32...v.30 But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, "Lord, save me!"

A door opened and I was asked to speak several years ago at a High School in an auditorium of 1,400. Before leaving that morning, I started to pace the floors, arms a flapping (a works of the flesh moment :) ...Lord, who am I fooling that I can do this, Lord, what did I get myself into this time, why do I keep getting myself into these positions and on and on I went for a few minutes. When I finally grew tired and just dropped to my knees...the Lord whispered to me in the quietness...The answer to your problem is within your questions..."I". Your right Brown Eagle...you can't...but with and in Me you can. Keep your eyes on me. Heb. 12:2 Psm 141:8 Cor. 4:18


Peter started to focus on the high waves. He started to sink because he took his eyes off of Christ. Taking our eyes off of Christ, we too are going to sink or backslide. During difficult situations we need to keep our eyes on Christ, rather then our inadequacies, circumstances, situations...whisper....and the "I"'s. In Christ, Brown Eagle

Whisper....keep your eyes on the Son!

Dear Lord, I thank you for this day. I thank You for my being able to see and to hear this morning. I'm blessed because You are a forgiving God and an understanding God. You have done so much for me and You keep on blessing me. Forgive me this day for everything I have done, said or thought that was not pleasing to you.... I ask now for Your forgiveness.

Please keep me safe from all danger and harm. Help me to start this day with a new attitude and plenty of gratitude. Let me make the best of each and every day to clear my mind so that I can hear from You.

Please broaden my mind that I can accept all things.

Let me not whine and whimper over things I have no control over. Let me continue to see sin through God's eyes and acknowledge it as evil. And when I sin, let me repent, and confess with my mouth my wrongdoing, and receive the forgiveness of God.

And when this world closes in on me, let me remember Jesus' example -- to slip away and find a quiet place to pray. It's the best response when I'm pushed beyond my limits. I know that when I can't pray, You listen to my heart. Continue to use me to do Your will.

Continue to bless me that I may be a blessing to others. Keep me strong that I may help the weak. Keep me uplifted that I may have words of encouragement for others. I pray for those who are lost and can't find their way. I pray for those who are misjudged and misunderstood. I pray for those who don't know You intimately. I pray for those who will delete this without sharing it with others. I pray for those who don't believe. But I thank you that I believe.

I believe that God changes people and God changes things. I pray for all my sisters and brothers. For each and every family member in their households................... I pray for peace, love and joy in their homes that they are out of debt and all their needs are met.

I pray that every eye that reads this knows t here is no problem, circumstance, or situation greater than God. Every battle is in Your hands for You to fight. I pray that these words be received into the hearts of every eye that sees them and every mouth that confesses them willingly..

This is my prayer.
In Jesus' Name, Amen.
