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."

HE TOUCHED ME... GRATEFUL FOR FORGIVENESS...

I was raised in a Christian home where I knew, at an early age, that it is by Jesus only that I have eternal life. An only child, for several years, I developed some perfectionistic ways early. Then, I became an oldest child with two younger siblings. I began to take on more of the characteristics of an oldest child. Yes, "bossy" was one of those characteristics. I never completely lost the instilled perfectionism of those early years, it has stayed with me as both friend and foe.

Oh, how thankful I am for the gift of forgiveness and eternal life provided by Jesus Christ. The Bible teaches me that sin separates me from God. Yes, I am in that catagory without Jesus as my friend! Yet, it is occasionally that my self-imposed guilt gets in my way of walking in the freedom of His forgiveness. So I have as a priority to move from Guilt to Grace! I get up every morning and give my guilt to the the ONE who is GRACE! Again, this morning, HE TOUCHED ME!

He is the...
