Rocks



I was lying in bed dealing with TMJ and talking to the LORD as to why He hadn’t healed it.

God:  What have you learned?
Me:  That I can’t seem to deal with stressors.
God:  You weren’t meant to deal with stress.
Me:  Huh?
God:  It’s because I made you to give problems to Me.  To trust Me.
Me:  Could You give me a tangible way to remember to quickly give problems to You?

He then showed me a rock.  Yes, a rock! 

God:  Consider that there are treasures in this rock.  You can either stare at it trying to figure a way to open the rock for the treasures OR you can give the rock to Me and let me open it for you AS you gaze at Me. 

Me:  Ah… I get it.

So now there’s a rock on my table as a reminder.

Later in the week, while the rocks were piling up, I found this scripture from Isaiah 35:1   ~Wilderness and desert will sing joyously,
    the badlands will celebrate and flower—
Like the crocus in spring, bursting into blossom,
    a symphony of song and color.  ~ (The Message Bible)

The Holy Spirit told me:  “I can turn ANYTHING around.  Just ask Me to do it.” 

So, I did.  As a result, I saw all the rocks I’ve been giving to God, flip over!


Having a hard time trusting God?   Here’s what you can do; consider His character.  Learn about all His names that are in the Holy Bible. 

To trust, to give God the problems and stressors, IS a choice with consequences.    Consider some of the consequences stress can cause:
·       TMJ
·       Hypertension
·       Gut problems
·       Neck ache
·       Misc. aches and pains
·       Not doing your job well
·       And much more

 So, what have you decided?

Two Perspectives

Two Perspectives:  The Lord said:  “ONE:   Look up at Me with confidence that all will turn out well or TWO:   fussing and worrying and fretting.   You chose.   Many people don’t know there is another alternative to the worry and fretting perspective… and where does that leave them?   What kind of life do they have?   TRUST Me!” Which one do you do the most? Is it easy or difficult for you to choose #1? ~~ “This Really Happened” at books2read.com/u/mZ5ALy and “REAL Conversations with God” at www.books2read.com/u/mgLPqx (You might also enjoy checking out Elisabella’s Books on Facebook, there’s been a change-up.)

Fun with Jesus - Gingerbread House

Fun with Jesus – Gingerbread House     Jesus was playing Peek-a-Boo with me in a Gingerbread house.     I’m outside watching Jesus peek at me through a window then disappear only to poke His head out through a different window.   Jesus flew up the chimney, quickly opened a door, looked out at me then closed it.   Jesus:   Come on inside. [Inside is adorable.   Gingerbread-ish.]   Jesus:   Come on.   We flew up to the 2 nd story loft and looked down. Me:   This is… unusual. Jesus:   [laughed] Me:   I like it. Jesus:   So do I.   Jesus goes into the kitchen, opens the oven and pulls out a cookie sheet with gingerbread cookies on it. Jesus:   Would you like one? Me: Yes, but aren’t they hot? Jesus:   Blow on it. Me:   [I blew, instantly cooled.   I took a bite.]    Delicious; crunchy, soft, chewy, spicy. Jesus:   Glad you like i...

Flowers

I read, ‘It’s (flowers) as if a rainbow touches the earth.’ The Lord interrupted my reading to ask, “Why do you think I made flowers?” Me:  So the saying, ‘stop and smell the flowers’ is true? God:  {sensed Him smiling}   I made them to be enjoyed ALL of them, even the stinkier ones and the ones some consider ugly.  They ALL have a purpose.  Remember ‘the Language of Flowers’?  Notice that most of the language is of love and happiness. Then He handed me a bouquet of flowers. Taken from Wikipedia:  The significance assigned to specific flowers in Western culture varied — nearly every flower had multiple associations, listed in the hundreds of floral dictionaries — but a consensus of meaning for common blooms has emerged. Often, definitions derive from the appearance or behavior of the plant itself. For example, the mimosa , or sensitive plant, represents chastity. This is because the leaves of the mimosa clo...
