Writing with Words

“He who works with his hands is a laborer. He who works with his hands and his head is a craftsman. He who works with his hands and his head and his heart is an artist”

Free like the Butterfly

Many years ago, God gave me words to share with a women’s ministry event and it was regarding being “Free like a A Butterfly”.  It spoke in detail of the struggle a caterpillar had to go through in order to break free of the cocoon and fly free.  FREE!!  And its correlation to our lives coming to and living in Jesus. 

We know our lives are continually changing, as we are learning.  The same bible verse we read last year means something different today, and it is in the learning we grasp His purpose for our lives.

I am struggling so hard right now, it is painful to my heart and spirit to do what God wants me do.  Every part of me wants to quit, physically quit my job.  But every way I turn, He is encouraging me and offering me the strength I need to endure while He does his work.  It’s all in His time. I have to remember I am in His realm, and when others don’t have his Spirit- they cannot see or understand His love.  Every hour is a struggle, GOD HELP ME.  But I know the answer is around the corner. In Him I trust!

“I do not ask that He must prove
His Word is true to me,
And that before I can believe
He first must let me see.
It is enough for me to know
It’s true because He says it’s so;
On His unchanging Word I’ll stand
And trust till I can understand.”
— E. M. Winter
“When you walk, your steps will not be hampered; when you run, you will not stumble.”
— Proverbs 4:12
“Do you fear to launch away?
Faith let’s go to swim!
Never will He let you go;
It’s by trusting you will know
Fellowship with Him.”
— LB Cowman
