Here I Go

Please pray for me as I follow my Heavenly Fathers path for me to Oklahoma. Yep! Today is the day. I know He is going to teach me so much during my time there. I will be pushed to my limits but I know my Heavenly Saviour knows no limits. In Him all things are possible. You know doing this was not on the top of my list but it was on the top of His. And I have given my life to Him so wherever He leads me I will go. I am nervous and a bit anxious but I am reminded often by my Saviour that He does not ask me to do anything on my own not even the smallest job.


Jeremiah 29:11 Says, " For I know the thoughts that I think towards you, saith the Lord, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end."

1Corinthians 15:58 "Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not in vain in the Lord."

Joy

I am so passionatly excited about life. The Hebrew word simcha means happiness in the most full sense. The simcha inside of me is overflowing (hence the blog name). I feel this way a lot. At night when there is a lot of time to think I get excited when I think about what my Heavenly Father does and what He is going to do. I am passionate about Him. He has blessed my family and I in so many different ways. Life is not without trials and stressful days or sadness and strife but He does promise that all things work together for good to them who love Him (Romans 8:28). Even though times have been hard in the past doesn't mean I can't have simcha today and be overwhelmingly enthusiastic. I choose to be a joyful person all the days of my life. But the simcha inside me is not my own I know that it is the Ruach Hakodesh (Holy Spirit) who lives inside of me.

Persecution Project

Active Compassion for the Persecuted from Watermelon Ministries on Vimeo.

I can't go and help them but I can do what I can here at home. If my Heavenly Father guides me to go and help the people in Africa I will go. My heart hurts for these people and the desire to do something to help them just keeps growing as I get older and as time passes. They are reaching out for help and we have the oppurtuniy because of the Persecution Project to do just that. Keep them in your prayers.

God has given me a passion for children. What we teach children when they are young really determines who they will be in the future. I am so excited about going and being a part of this ministry in the fall!! Everyone should have a passion to reach out to the children that God has placed in their lives. You will make a difference when you do.

Room Makeover

My sister and I have been doing some decorating. I have never been so excited about stickers in my life. I chose this really pretty tree to put on my wall. My sister chose some horse stickers. Our room looks so much better!! I am so excited about it. It makes me feel like I'm in the forest.
