rejoice with me & pray for me~!!

















Recent tidbits I thought I’ve picked up, am totally open to your wisdom/ advice!



- selfishness...is driven by fear – a sad statement of too much of my life :|

- give yourself permission to embrace AND like yourself! <-- [this has been totally foreign to me!]


- life doesn't begin until you learn to embrace yourself! <-- ditto


- life begins when you look at yourself & smile! <-- ditto


- don't care what others think!


- we judge others negatively because we deny the ugliness in ourselves instead of accepting ugliness.


- accepting ugliness in ourselves makes us accept ugliness in others :)


- EMBRACE your weaknesses & ugliness!


Infinite Supply for November 13
When we cease trying to do what we cannot do then the Lord will begin to do what only He can do anyway. The Lord is Infinite Supply. So it does not matter if we have much or little, if we are skilled or unskilled, if we are experienced or inexperienced. "And when they had done [what Jesus said to do] they caught a great multitude of fish, and the net broke" (Luke 5:6). Peter, James, and John can try as they might and do their best, but without the word of the Lord it is in vain. They might have saved themselves a lot of effort had they sought the word of the Lord to begin with. Which would you rather have: a whole night of wasted effort on your own, or five minutes of abundance with the Lord? Yes we should work, but first we must wait. And if we will wait for the Lord then we will have Infinite Supply for the work at hand.


Humbly asking your prayers as we journey on toward HIM! :)

if you have any questions / comments of my life, Don’t be shy~! my life's an open book ;)


++ praise & prayer points from previous prayer mails mostly still apply, but for the sake of space I’ll leave them out ;)


:D rejoice with me! :D

:D my times in His Word & prayer have been greatly enriched with this little tip my mentor passed on – never move on from the chapter / passage I’m reading until I get [1] something I can praise God for, [2] something to pray for & [3] something I can change / apply!

:D I never need to envy those who “have it all” in this world – I have it all in Jesus – forever!!


I liked this paraphrase of Psalm 73:24-26:
You wisely and tenderly lead me, and then you bless me. You're all I want in heaven! You're all I want on earth!
When my skin sags and my bones get brittle, GOD is rock-firm and faithful.


:D all the many empty pursuits in life He’s saved me from chasing down, that I might pursue fullness of joy and absolute satisfaction in Him!!


*PRAY*


Felt convicted by Psalm 89:1& 2 “Your love, GOD, is my song, and I'll sing it! I'm forever telling everyone how faithful you are. I’ll never quit telling the story of your love”
- my silence at times is just sinful in light of Hs incredible love & faithfulness! :(

* I’d open my mouth always & not quit telling everyone of His love & faithfulness to me!!

* I’d wait for the Lord to then have Infinite Supply for the work He wants me to do!


* I’d be so desperate for change to obey Jesus’ commands in Matthew 7:7!
– to want revival so much that I can’t live without it!
- to not be satisfied with “good” services / prayer meetings / bible studies but long for the best!

* He’d so posses me so I’d be intensely excited for Him & about Him!

* my extravagant desire would be all for Him!!

* keep me walking so close to Him so that I’d ask for what He wants me to receive, seek Him for what He wants me to find and knock on the doors He wants me to knock on!

* keep my ever- greedy heart satisfied in Him!

* keep me sensitive to hearing the cries for help of others & be Christ’s ambassador to them!

* keep me increasingly thankful always, & my mouth ever open to speak of His wondrous acts more!!

* make my life an aroma of Christ!!

* I’d cooperate with Him in being an agent of revival!!


* free me from Christian pornography – see

* I’d know when to separate myself from family, friends, business & seek Him, not to receive a blessing FROM Him, but to be a blessing TO Him!
