Dedicated to my son~ David
Posted By jessi on September 20, 2011
As we walk this journey we must frequently stop and take a DEEP breath and say, “God I know that you have it under control!” I did this Saturday night when I was enroute to Huntsville, Alabama to the emergency room where my son was. I had just begun my ‘vacation’ which was to be mixed with business fun. Now we have thrown a little bit of stress into that concoction. What do I have….the words…TRUST ME. Most times we do not know where our paths will lead us. Now do not get me wrong, we do make the plans. This is called setting goals or planning for the future. On the flip side of this, we must allow the Holy Spirit to lead us into the BEST direction. Many times we have choices and we sometimes make the wrong choice. We must ‘be still’ and hear the voice of the Holy Spirit.
Amazing enough (now it should not be a surprise) I have the next week or so off from work. ISN’T THAT INTERESTING! Now my plans to ‘just lay back in the sun’ has been redirected but most important, I have time to spend with my son and my daughter in law during a time of crisis. I know and trust that my God has it all under control. The Word says that the steps of a righteous man are ordered of God. He will lead my path. I know this very well. He is also the God that healeth, so I have no doubt that ‘all is well’. There are times in my journey that God has brought a ‘wakeup call’ to me and even those around me. Because I am a child of the King and He has promised my family…there is protection given to them. I am a member of the chosen generation and that anointing/protection flows through me and around me. I claim the privileges’ that are attached to God’s promises to His children. The enemy must step aside and remove his hold on David and the family. I will exercise the authority that flows inside me on this date. I call it done!
WOW! Isn’t God great!!!
I believe what I am learning through all of this is TRUST! When Jesus was talking with Peter, He asked him….’do you love me?’ Peter responded, ‘Yes Lord.’.
John 21:15 …… Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon son of John, do you love me more than these?” “Yes, Lord,” he said, “you know that I love you.” Jesus said, “Feed my lambs.”
John 21:16 Again Jesus said, “Simon son of John, do you love me?” He answered, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.” Jesus said, “Take care of my sheep.”
John 21:17 The third time he said to him, “Simon son of John, do you love me?” Peter was hurt because Jesus asked him the third time, “Do you love me?” He said, “Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you.” Jesus said, “Feed my sheep.
As I began the drive here, I thought of my faith….I heard, “Do you really believe I am who I am?” I said yes Lord. Then take a deep breath and believe. I know that God delivered me from cancer. Now this is not humanly possible but with God all things are possible. I began to think, this is my son and he is hurt, he is near death. The voice again says, “Do you really believe I am who I am?” Yes Lord I know who you are. Then take a deep breath and believe. I am no different than Peter was the day that he sat with Jesus. Again the voice says, “Evelyn…do you really believe I am who I am?” Yes Lord I believe. Then take a deep breath and BELIEVE. I have peace and I know that God has it under control.
As I pray for my children and grandchildren, I pray the blessings of God upon them, but most of all, I ask the Father to draw them closer to Himself. Now how He does this sometimes (most times) is perhaps not the manner in which you or I would have chosen. Also, the choices that we make, sort of determines how God gets our attention.
My journey continues as we face the surgery tomorrow. With full confidence in the Father all will be alright. I believe that the surgery will be less than the time expected and with efficiency the surgeon will perform what he must. Dave’s recovery will be shortened and he will know that God has touched his life. A mother’s love is significant and will never stop, but the Father’s love is greater than one can imagine. May Dave and Allison both feel the presence of God in their lives through this trial! May they both realize the power of a mother’s prayer and that I love them dearly.
I must continue my journey to West Palm Beach following the surgery. Life must continue and the next chapter must be written. Exfuze is about to become a must in every household. I look forward to meeting with associates from all over the world. I want to thank ALL of my Exfuze partners for their prayers concerning my family.
See you at convention.
