Vacay Day 4

We woke up to pancakes & eggs. Uncle Jon had made us all breakfast. We had a lot of fun playing with the cousins, the kids enjoyed the workout room (especially the treadmill, which yielded quite a few brush burns on little arms & legs), gave out our Christmas presents, & Nate’s back cracked a few times before getting on the road (the answer to my prayers...he was almost back to 100%). 

Today we arrived in Cape Canaveral, FL and we got to spend time with Lola & Poppy, have dinner, visit the ocean & even swim a little in the pool. This is a beautiful resort and I just keep praising the Lord for the blessing of this trip.

Psalm 22-
I will proclaim your name to my brothers and sisters.*(Hebrew says brothers, which is funny to me!)
I will praise you among your assembled people.
The poor will eat and be satisfied. All who seek the LORD will praise him...
Our children will also serve him. Future generations will hear about the wonders of the Lord.
His righteous acts will be told to those not yet born.       
They will hear about everything he has done.
You are such a good God. No matter what, I will praise You! I will teach my children to praise You! I will tell my children about all of your wonders & Your miracles. You will always take care of us, we eat & are satisfied. I will tell even the baby in my womb about your unfailing love & Your great works. As I wait on You, I will praise You. I trust you more than I ever thought possible. You have grown my faith & caused me to rest in You. 
Now, for this next phase of trust, this stirring in my heart...I surrender to You all of my hopes, dreams, desires, questions, pondering. I rest in You & your unfailing love & goodness.

Listen Up...

At the Discipleship Summit this year Jesus kept telling me in multiple ways to be a better listener... 1. He was a great listener! Isaiah 53-"He was led like a lamb to the slaughter, but he did not say anything." 2. Most of the time when I talk, I regret what I said 3. It's a way to be a servant 4. I can learn alot from other people 5. Listening is the best form of counseling...my response can be prayer! As the Lord began to challenge me with this, I began asking to help me with questions to ask people... In the hot tub that afternoon I met an amazing missionary woman who began asking me about my kiddos. Not only did she ask me about their ages, but she also asked what each of their personalities were like. I had to really think about that question. She was genuinely interested in me and it felt amazing! This is going to take alot of effort, but through the power of the Holy Spirit it can be done! I am trusting that this will change my relationships,  even with my...

Sitting and Resting...This is How I Fight

Sitting at the feet of Jesus....this is where it all begins.  Today has the potential of a fear-filled day.  But, I have experienced a life, days, moments without fear so, with all that is in me, I am going to fight for fearlessness.  As I sit at the feet of Jesus, He gently whispers His love to me.  And, in that love, the fear is gone.  He's got our backs, He's got my kids, their schooling, their friendships, their choices, the things they see & hear. He's got it all and He cares about it all.  He loves my little family of Doyles even more than I can imagine.  In that truth and promise, I will rest today. A day that threatens fear and failure, yet in His love and power, I will rest.

A Dwelling Place

This morning I woke up to a sick baby boy.  After sending Isaiah and Moriah to Sunday School, I sat down to hear from the Lord until the Radiate Service started.  Consumed by the thought that we may all be sick for Christmas, I looked up "no more sickness" in my online concordance.  What came up was a message of hope for me and I pray  it brings you hope as well ... Revelation 21:3-8-   And I heard a loud voice from the throne, saying, “Behold, the tabernacle of God is among men, and He will dwell among them , and they shall be His people, and God Himself will be among them ,   and He will wipe away every tear from their eyes; and there will no longer be  any  death; there will no longer be  any  mourning, or crying, or pain; the first things have passed away.” Exodus 25:8  "Then have them make a sanctuary for me, and I will dwell among them . Exodus 29:45  Then I will dwell among the Israelites and be their God ....
