Positive thoughts

Good Evening, or whatever is the best greeting to you, in your part of the world.

Well, we have had quite the day; happy it is night. I just shake my head at some of the greedy antics. However, we will keep on trekking; TRUSTING that He has an even better plan for us. I had some 'ephifanies' on Sunday; and the power of words is so very important; and particularly, when it comes to Prayer.

We have been through several more hoops today. It is POURING with rain tonight. black skies, and it feels as if it is much later in the evening, than it really is. We are thankful to see our bed early.

Here are some pictures I took earlier tonight. The exquisite pink orchids that Alan gave me for my birthday in September, are STILL blooming! Our 'pup', Blue is also quite relaxed, as you can see; with a wonderful cosy fire in the background.

Tidbit - Keep a positive outlook; ALWAYS!

When you have ASKED for the Holy Spirit to indwell within you, you are strengthened with Resolve; to 'hang in there'. Knowing that He has a better plan in mind for you; than even what you Prayed for. If your Prayers are not answered as quickly as you would like, (please refer to 'Hour of Power' - Dr. Robert Schuller - www.hourofpower); 'Enjoying Everyday Life' (Joyce Meyer - www.joycemeyer.org); and 'Living Truth' (Charles Price - www.livingtruth.ca) for further info. Dr. Robert Schuller gives such an awesome encouraging explanation of 'Answer to Prayer' and why at times Prayers are not answered as quickly as we would like. I gained several 'ephifanies' this past Sunday; and I have been applying those 'ephifanies' in my Prayers ever since!

Eventhough we are still mightly struggling with obstructive 'spiritual' obstacles, I KNOW that we are on the RIGHT path. I ASKED / Prayed BOLDLY for His Direction (with all my Might!); and we have received tidbitz news this afternoon. To Alan and I, this IS a solid endorsment. You have heard, that 'when one door closes; another door opens'. Well we have been given some assurances to continue with what we have been working on, for these last six years! We are so close to achieving our goal / vision; and we have experienced many who have / are trying to steal our dreams. However, it may be, that now, we have been given a 'second' chance by Him, to redeem ourselves (we have learned many a bittid lesson along the way) and it looks as if we will see 'FRUITION' of our efforts, of 'blood, sweat, and tears'.

Before I forget, we enjoyed a really nice evening last night, with our elderly neighbour (you can refer to yesterday's post and earlier recent posts for a bittidz of background). He lost his wife a few years ago; so last night, he shared some tidbits with us; and we think we helped him a bit with his sadness. There is now a new door of friendship that has been opened between us. A wonderful tid Blessing.

Bittid - REST in Him. He IS your Refuge and Strength. When you are 'worn out', weary, or plain tired, overwhelmed etc, simply LEAVE IT ALL TO HIM TO WORK OUT. He does!

That is what we are doing; and calling it a night. I have a peaceful, confident calm within, that He has an awesome Solution for us. Hope this is a tidbit uplift to you.

Good Night, Peace, and God Bless.
