The Lord has recently brought into my life some wonderful people intent on supporting healing of the past. I am so inspired! I started this blog so I would have a place where I can write, put out scriptures, and thoughts. It will be for anyone, based on healing, wholeness, victory, freedom in Christ, and the list goes on and on. I will be adding stories and that kind of thing to help and encourage. I would like to add phone contact info on the blog so if anyone needs further areas to look they can find it. If you would like to have your information published here, please contact me; Words2Bless@hotmail.com ~~Leola

Thoughts for the New Year


I am just beginning a journey into a book entitled  “The Grand Weaver; How God shapes Us Through the events of our Lives” by Revi Zacharias.  It is giving me pause to think.  What really is God’s plan in my life?  Am I on the right path?  Is there a wrong path?  Can I make a wrong choice and end up in a place not of His choosing?  Can I make a wrong turn and still end up in His perfect will?  Lots of questions arose as I began to review this book.  I have only read the introduction, but I believe it is going to be a great source of information. 
So, think about your path.!!!!   Do you believe that each step has been ordained by God himself?  Do you believe that He created you with an end product in mind?  That He genuinely cares about you, your needs and wants and desires.  I KNOW that He is involved in my life.  He selects and uses each path that I trod for His glory and for His purpose.  The big decisions and the small ones.  The Word of God tells us that our steps are planned by our Mighty God.  To me, that includes, all the baby steps I take when I step out in fear or uncertainty or concern over the future, the problems of this world and the pleasures as well.  He is directing each step.  Each footprint; He knew where it would land.   Each arm that reached out to give and to receive a hug.  He was there.  Each time a tear was shed, a heart was broken.  That is my take on it.  My God is sovereign.  He is just.  He is omnipotent.  He is omnipresent.  He is omniscient. 
“No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him.”  1 Corinthians 2:9 
I pray that this New Year will be one of growth for each of us.  That we will be known by the fruits that we bear.  That we will be alive and well and doing His will within each of our communities.  Don't forget those that are hurting, needing, feeling unloved or unlovely.  Those that feel as though they do not have a friend.  Reach out to those. Let your footsteps include the unfamiliar areas of your world. May God expand all of our territories in this New Year.
