In the morning when I rise give me Jesus!

Happy Wednesday!

It's time for a Word Art Wednesday 

and 

Fresh Brewed Designs project!

I don't usually mix the two, but when I saw this weeks scripture, 

this card design popped into my head. I didn't have any other

house image or chipboard pieces, so I chose to use one of my 

FBD digis for this little project.

(I hope that was ok)

This weeks scripture immediately put this song in my head

Oh God, You are my God
And I will ever praise You

I will seek You in the morning
And I will learn to walk in Your ways
And Step by step You'll lead me
And I will follow You all of my days

images:

WAW Scripture: Psalm 143:8

 My Neighborhood Digital Stamp 

(used one house from the image)

And this song:

Thy loving kindness is better than life

My lips shall praise Thee

Thus will I bless Thee

I will lift my hands up unto Thy name

God is so good!

I know we all start new years resolutions to become closer to Him, 

read the entire bible, pray more, and do more...

and then we often fall short and feel like we let God down. 

I will not set myself up for failure, because that is exactly what I would do.

But I will work on my relationship with Him and I do have

some things I need to change in my walk and knew that and began working

on that well before the new year. 

I am praying for God to lead me in His ways.

For Him to be first in my life. 

For my prayer life to become stronger.

For my lips to sing and speak worship and praise in EVERYTHING I do.

For His love to flow through me and overflow outside of me.

For my life to speak truth and for Him to show Himself strong in my life. 

For my family to grow stronger and for my children to see more of Jesus in me. 

I will stop there... but could go on and on.

I want to also THANK GOD for all of the times he has put up with me 

and my shortcomings. For the times I was too tired to pray or praise.

For my pity party moments. 

For the times I gave up because I felt I was unworthy or that he had given up on me.

For the times I listened to the devil and believed his lies that I wasn't good enough. 

I was ugly. A hypocrite. A lie. Unworthy. Selfish. Stupid. 

HE WAS BESIDE ME WAITING FOR ME TO LISTEN TO HIM

and HEAR THAT I AM A CHILD OF THE KING. 

I AM BLESSED AND HIGHLY FAVORED!

I AM HIS DAUGHTER.

HE HAS A PLAN AND PURPOSE FOR MY LIFE. 

I AM CALLED, CHOSEN, SET APART, LOVED!

God is so good!!!

Thank you Lord for continuing to make and mold me into the woman you want me to be.

Thank you for reminding me that when I don't feel your presence, you are there, still working

and I need to just continue to seek you and trust in you. 

Just, thank you for LOVING ME!
