Good Conversation

Good conversation
Is available to all
Who will receive love
*
One person I will talk to
Is the one who initiates
Who reaches out with kindness
In the little things
*
This person I discovered
Is willing to listen well
And is full of surprises
Begins in silence
*
It’s hard to be still
The noise of the “to do” list
Imprisons my soul
And stops me from seeing me
And the one who loves me so
*
I get sick of me
I’m the root of the problem
The one who loves me says “Stop!”
“Be still and listen”
The God who made you loves you
His only Son gave His life
*
I decided to trust Him
Take His word rather than mine
Enter this love covenant
Respond to His gift
*
He gave me His Spirit of Peace
The forgiveness I longed for
Conversation I needed
Based on a promise
*
This resurrection promise
Has the power to change things
And restore my wounded soul
He knocks at the door
*
It’s a daily thing
I practice with discipline
A choice I can make
*
“Behold, I stand at the door”
Is the voice I’ll listen to
I will enter His Presence
And rest in His Love
*
True words are powerful. They set a person free to be fully alive inside. I train to live from the inside out as a way of life. God, Creator of the Universe made us in His image. He made it clear by the love demonstrated through His Son that we are His priority. Every person counts with God. He always listens and responds uniquely to each person who calls out in response to His Love. I believe with all my heart that you are favored and Beloved. I could be right!

Dreams and Angels
January 11, 2014
~
What do you do with your dreams
Have you seen your dreams come true
God spoke to men in their dreams
I’ll reflect on that
~
Two groups heard an angel
They both came as a warning
Evil’s on the horizon
The Magi and Joseph
~
What’s been your experience
We choose not to talk about
Dreams that cause us to wonder
I think we should listen
~
I hear the warning
Make plans to escape the test
Pay attention now
What’s happening around me
Who can interpret these dreams
~
First, I ask God to help me
He promises to give wisdom
I have his divine nature
His clear promises
~
We escape the corruption
When we ask him to come near
Focus on the promises
Reflect on His love
~
The angels will come
And minister to our hearts
That’s why he sent them to us
I’ll train to listen
~
Read out loud and reflect on Matthew 2.
~
“Are not the angels all (servants) ministering spirits, sent out in the service (of God for the assistance) of those who are to inherit salvation?” Hebrews 1: 14 (Amp) Salvation is His healing Presence.
~
“His divine power has given us everything we need for life and godliness through our knowledge of him who called us by his own glory and goodness. Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises so that through them you may participate in the divine nature and escape the corruption of this dark world caused by evil desires.” Peter – II Peter 1: 3-4
~
“Devote yourselves to prayer; being watchful and thankful.”
Paul – Colossians 4: 2
~
“Let be and be still, and know — recognize and understand — that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations! I will be exalted in the earth.” David Psalm 46: 10 (Amp)
