Women with a Purpose: Yeehoooo!

Yeehoooo!

That's French for Yeeehawwww! lol

Well the sales is going through finally. The well passed the water test, the septic got cleaned out yesterday, it's a cement 1000 gallon and is in good condition so we're officially buying the house. How exciting!

I read in Proverbs 29:25, "The fear of man bringeth a snare; but whoso putteth his trust in the Lord shall be safe." It really spoke to me as an encouragement and reminder that God gives peace, guidance and security when we trust Him to lead us and have our life but, the opposite will keep us in constant fear.

From the moment the Lord laid on our heart that He wanted us to move, we trusted Him to help us make the transition. We knew that God knew ahead of time all the possible situations for us but one in particular was His will. There was one path that was filled with His blessings. It never means that things are always perfect and easy because He wants us constantly growing and seeking Him.

Today is still filled with things to do like: getting MORE banana boxes, bringing estimates to the bank, going to the lighting place for estimates, calling Energy Efficiency, getting a building permit and calling the foundation guys to get that scheduled ASAP. Those are the things I can think of right now... lol

Going back to the scripture God showed me this morning, before we got the news about the water and septic, trusting in God will bring safety; peace of mind, security and confidence so there is no reason to fall in the flesh and become fearful of the future. I can't change what the future brings and the bible says, having fear will just be a snare; a trap and stronghold. Fear is not of the Lord.

Keep trusting

What's behind door number 1?

Now I remember why I like reading your blog (besides your sheer intelligence and whit..hehe)a few times you've reminded me of things I've learned but manage to forget. Fear is not of God....I remeber at the ladies conference, Mrs. Osteen taught that fear is failure to trust in God, when I heard that it hit me like a ton of bricks.I mean , it's so obvious, butI just never thought of it before. And still, even now,I worry about the future as if I have control over it. And I've just always been a worry wart. Anyways, thankyou for reminding me of that. I will be praying that everything goes smoothly for you guys.
Love you Cynthia

Bible Way to Heaven

1. Recognize your condition. For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God (Romans 3:23). No one is good enough to go to Heaven on his own merit. No matter how much good we do, we still fall short. 2. Realize the penalty for sin. For the wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23). Just as there are wages for good, there is punishment for wrong. The penalty for our sin is eternal death in a place called Hell. 3. Believe Christ died for you. But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us (Romans 5:8). Christ's great love for us was shown when He died on the cross to pay our sin debt. 4. Trust Christ alone as your Savior. But the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord (Romans 6:23). For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved (Romans 10:13). Everlasting life is a gift purchased by the blood of Jesus and offered freely to those who call upon Him by faith.
