Sisters of Grace

Hi, it’s me lol I feel like I should reintroduce myself as I have taken quite a hiatus from writing my blog! So many times I felt the urge to write and yet I stayed silent, and the days passed me by. The holidays are really taxing for me, and I have been trying to get back into a rhythm but life still keeps getting faster! So then I decided this morning as I awaken full of thoughts, to make time to enjoy the stillness of this beautiful morning. It is 4:25am here, my five children are sleeping peacefully my husband amongst the crew, snoring loudly lol! This is just the right time!

Oh how I have missed you all here on this platform, you guys are so inspiring and bubbling over with creativity. You all make a book loving, all things words adventurer, and a lonely housewife feel a lot less alone! Thank you for doing what you do so well! I pray that you all are well and gearing up for spring as I am! If you are still in the cold and dreary wherever you live, I hope you are staying warm and enjoying the present.

My most cherished friend, is a pen and paper! How I have missed letting the words flow, and come to life! I was destined for words, and God gave me a talent to express myself pretty well. I often get so frustrated with my husband who cannot share his thoughts or convey his feelings and I think what a shame! I am rarely without words, but I know silence is golden and it is necessary. For me, I seek to learn balance to know best when to speak and when to share. Some things truly are better left unsaid!

In this moment, I want to tell you about a wonderful experience I had over the weekend! If you are familiar with YouVersion Bible app, you may already know about this event called Gather25. I was doing my quick daily verse and I saw the reminder about this particular online event, I wasn’t sure what it was going to be about. All I knew was that it was mentioned a few months ago and I wanted to know more. Well as I said, I got on there and they said that it was kicking off that evening at 7:00pm. They said that it would be a global gathering all over the world of Christian believers. I knew I needed just that type of thing right now.

Immediately I texted my husband and told my children that we would be tuning in and see what this was all about. I am so grateful that we did because it was truly amazing! The United States kicked off the event it was to be a 25 hour, online revival of with all seven continents! All the saints to be gathering for worship, prayer, repentance, and commissioning for what God has for us next! I have never seen anything like this it was all these countries coming together sharing what God is doing in their churches and in their country.

My family and I were deeply moved to hear their stories of faith and revival spreading throughout the Earth! God’s children awakening and coming together in new ways to share his goodness with the lost, and dying world. I was determined to stay up long as possible Friday night so that I would not miss it! God knows my weary heart needed revival! What a faithful GOD! I was glued to the screen from 7pm to 5am! I sang, prayed and repented my little heart out and the only thing I regret is that I cannot stay up 24 hours anymore lol! I was sad to finally call it quits at 5am. However after a 3 hour nap I was right back tuned in and it was just incredible!

The songs in all the different languages, the beauty of all of God’s children worshipping him from their hearts. I cried tears of true joy, as I saw a glimpse of heaven. Every tribe, nation and tongue represented together, standing on one accord! When the church comes together WE bring the house down! The Spirit of God was so heavy that my knees were weak I couldn’t stop trembling in the power of HIS GLORY! I thought my God THIS is what the world needs! They need to put aside the differences and get on the same page and let God move on our hearts! It is still available for people to go and check out the services at Gather25.com, I encourage you to watch it.

Disclaimer: If you are too good to give God the praise it won’t be for you, but if you are a wretched sinner like me, looking to be refreshed in your spirit go and check it out! It has truly blessed my soul and renewed my vision! God is still in the saving business and the distractions of this world, do not change his vision! As his child, I am compelled to share my faith more and to align my life better for his will and his glory! God alone can make our world whole again! However as a sojourner in a foreign land, I am looking for a heavenly home with JESUS! Won’t you join us?

I pray that your week is filled with unexpected blessings and signs of God’s great love for you! Until next time friends, God bless!
