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."

JUST AS I AM... I SURRENDER ALL... MY HEART! MY SOUL! MY STRENGTH!

WOMEN IN THE WORD WEDNESDAY
.
Let's talk about the first two verses of our May Scripture Memory. Then, we'll practice it!
.
The first two verses say, "Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one. Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength..
.
Important concepts:
  1. The LORD God is one!
  2. I love the LORD with all my heart!
  3. I love the LORD with all my soul!
  4. I love the LORD with all my strength!
.
What is it that those 4 things actually mean?
.
  1. Our God is one. The word "God" is in the plural form. Our God is three in one; our God is the trinity: God, the Father; God, the Son, and God, the Holy Spirit. The trinity is much like an apple with it's 3 parts: the skin is the protector; the main part we eat is "the flesh or meat"; the core holds the seeds.
  2. She loves God with all her heart who loves nothing in comparison of Him. She thinks about Him, wants to please Him, spend time with Him; she is passionate about Him!
  3. She loves God with all her soul, with all her life (eternal life) who is ready to give up her life for His sake-to endure all sorts of torments, and to be deprived of all kinds of comforts, rather than dishonor God... giving up life with all its comforts and conveniences, to glorify God in, by, and through all. She talks to Him; He listens! She praises and honors Him; He blesses! He is her closest companion; she is intimate with Him!
  4. She loves God with all her strength who exerts all the powers of her body in the service of God:-who, for the glory of his Maker, spares neither labour nor cost-who sacrifices her time, goods, body, health (if need be), talents, power, credit, and influence for the honor of God her divine Master as she endures and perseveres; she is committed to Him!
.
Deuteronomy 6:4-5
" Hear, O Israel:
The LORD our God,
the LORD is one.
Love the LORD your God
with all your heart and
with all your soul and
with all your strength.
.
Deuteronomy 6:4-5
"Hear, O Israel:
The LORD our God,
the LORD is _____.
Love the LORD your God
with all your _______and
with all your ______and
with all your ________."
.
Deuteronomy 6:4-5
"Hear, O Israel:
The LORD our God,
the ______ ____ ______.
Love the LORD your God
_____ ___ ______ _______and
