Monday I had a full day. I won't bore you with the details but just the norm stuff. Working out, chores, therapy for my sweet boy and taking Andrew to his driving lesson. I did have the highlight of a conversation with a friend and a my sissy.
I found myself in the afternoon desiring to go to a meeting for something that I have been interested in. Everything seemed to fall into place and off I went. When the meeting was over I got in my car and started to drive home. I thought to myself...do I have a peace about my evening? Ummmm, no I didn't. I thought why? Why, don't I have a peace about that? Right then I had the radio on and the verse of the song said....I have given you my love and set you free! Thank you Lord for reminding me through song of your truths. I knew that was all I needed to hear. He has! I am walking in it and it is beautiful. It is uncharted territory for me. I have never been free in this area before. But GOD did it! And I am going to BASK in it! The journey might not be over but it appears as thought the battle is. You know when you give in (or maybe up) and surrender. How sweet that is to say YOUR will not mine. What more could I want? His ways are so much sweeter than mine!

Jules,
What a sweet message for you! God just has that right moment to speak to us. Funny how it is sometimes when we are least expecting it.
That is the theme reverberating through out this year. FREE! The chains have been broken. Praise God for His hand in our lives. Healing is beautiful.
I could not figure out how to edit and add my comment, but I want you to know that you amaze me in who you are.
I appreciate you more than you will ever know. There is a verse that reminded me of you.
Proverbs 24:26 An Honest answer is like a kiss on the lips. NIV
The Quest Bible then goes on to explain this verse: "Like a kiss, an honest answer demonstrates affection and love, the marks of genuine friendship."
You truly are a "Jewel"!
So neat to hear what you are hearing from the Lord. Reminded me of what we talked about how God graciously gives us what we think we need to get through the moment and then slowly sets us free from needing it at all. Both that grace and the latter freedom are from Him, and both bring such peace knowing He's right there with us, providing what we need when we need it. Makes us realize that we don't need 'something' ....just HIM! love ya sissy!
