It is GOD who BLESSES and TRANSFORMS...

This is a blog for women (not just moms) who:

(1) Desire to be transformed by JESUS' LOVE, HOLINESS, AND GRACE;

(2) Believe that GOD'S WORD is the true Spirit food for HIS HOLY SPIRIT who lives within us;

(3) Submit to GOD and walk this journey of life with HIM transforming us more and more into HIS likeness.

It's a blog about the POWER OF TRANSFORMED LIVES. Let's begin with yours and mine and pass it on... 1 + 1 + 1...

Since GOD's HOLY SPIRIT lives inside a christian, let's choose to be nurtured and transformed by feasting daily on HOLY SPIRIT food - GOD's WORD - The Holy Bible..

My regular posts stopped in 2013, with a major move and the chronic illness and eventual death of our oldest daughter. Yes, we grieve daily, yet I am determined to continue to let the LIGHT of my LORD and SAVIOR shine through me. I have tried to start posting again, over the last few years, but have not been consistent. So, I think the biggest blessing for you and me both will be to intersperse some new posts while revisiting some of the former posts. Let's begin with "Oh, the JOY!" as we head into living through Fall 2019; meeting back here 1-2 days a week.

If you need daily encouragement, you will find plenty by clicky on past posts. When reading earlier posts, you will see that I often posted daily, following this format: ...Sunday in the SON, Meditation Monday, GratiTuesday, Women in the WORD Wednesday, Transforming Thursday, Family Fellowship Friday, Ketchup & Mustard Saturday.


There's a whole lot here! Take your time to browse.

Please come back and visit each week. Welcome!

Because of JESUS, we can be family,

Patti





TRANSFORMED MOMS:MOMS TRANSFORMED

Romans 12:1-2 "Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship. 2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect."

IT'S ABOUT THE CROSS: IN MAN YOU DWELL

WOMEN IN THE WORD WEDNESDAY



Isaiah 7:14

"Therefore the Lord Himself

will give you a sign:

Behold,

a virgin will be with child

and bear a son,

and she will call His name

Immanuel."

.

On Sunday morning, Steve focused on this verse in his sermon. Mike had spent time talking about it in class.

.

Monday I posted about Mike's class, mentioning that there are many "do not be afraid" verses that also include a promise "I will be with you always". Vanessa told me that somewhere she had heard that there were 366 of these verses, enough for every day of the year including leap year. Although I have only found a little over 100, I did read on the internet that the movie "Facing the Giants" refers to one of these verses for every day of the year. Vanessa sent me a link to the 100+ which I will add at the end of this post. Two of those scriptures are independent angel visits to Mary and to Joseph before Jesus' birth.
.
Tuesday (yesterday), I posted about Immanuel, on the cross, finishing the work that He had been born to do. He was born to die and then come back to life! I have learned so much from His seven statements on the cross!
.
If you get nothing else from this post today, I want to emphasize that Jesus wants to come and live inside of you! Immanuel means "God with us!" Say it this way:
.
In - man - u - dwell


  • Jesus, the Creator of the universe, humbled Himself to be born of a virgi

  • Jesus lived a perfect life (denying Himself - it's called the "cross walk")

  • Jesus died for the sins of all mankind



  • Jesus was resurrected on the third day from the grave to live eternally

  • Jesus lived on the earth another 40 days and then ascended into heaven

  • Jesus sent His Holy Spirit ten days after He ascended into heaven and it was on that day that Peter, guided by the Holy Spirit, preached the first sermon, which in part said, in Acts 2:36-47...


  • 36 "Therefore let all the house of Israel know for certain that God has made Him both Lord and Christ — this Jesus whom you crucified." 37 Now when they heard this, they were pierced to the heart, and said to Peter and the rest of the apostles, "Brethren, what shall we do?" 38 And Peter said to them, "Repent, and let each of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 For the promise is for you and your children..."

Jesus was born to die to rise to ascend to come down and live in you!

In - man - u - dwell

Mirror, mirror on the wall,

Do you see Jesus in me at all?
