Agreements
Agreement (as defined by dictionary.com):
1. the act of agreeing or of coming to a mutual arrangement.
2. the state of being in accord.
3. an arrangement that is accepted by all parties to a transaction.
Would you say that an agreement is mutual? That it is being of one accord? Accepted by all parties involved? A transaction?
John Eldridge in His book "Walking with God" talks about the agreements we make with the enemy about ourselves and who God is. With the above definition in mind this is HUGE for us as believers. To actually think that I could make an agreement with the liar of liars? An agreement could be simple as thought that "God doesn't love you" or " You dont have what it takes" "You are all alone". How often do we challenge our thoughts? Or as my dad recently put it, doubt our doubts? Our lives as followers of Christ are anything but normal, but what is the normal we live in? Romans 12, be transformed by the renewing of your mind. There will be partial agreements put out there for you and I to agree with or push back. Gods Truth is the only thing that brings LIFE. If it feels that you are dying inside, ask the Lord to show you His truth, and to reveal any lies that you have agreed with. LIVE LIFE LOVED my friends.

unraveled
Do you ever find yourself fighting the hands that want to heal you? Do you find yourself becoming skeptical of how good God is? Do you wonder where is God in all of this? You aren't alone. When we hit the waves of doubt or of pain, it is our natural reaction to run and hide. If scripture says that God is our Refuge and Strength an ever present help in times of trouble, there has to be a reality to that. God is not speaking in mere theory here. If it feels like your life is unravelling, take heart, it may just be just like Lazarus, God is bringing new life and taking off the old clothes that He wants you to be free of. Be willing to fall apart at the seems its ok. You are ok, to fall apart into the hands of God can be the most amazing thing you could encounter. His pursuit of your hurt and heart is relentless, could it be true? That God is actually that loving? That personal? He heals all our wounds and redeems our life from the pit. Let him unravel things in your life, there is healing and hope in his wings.

24 Days
24 Days, there are 24 days until I get married. This is something I have thought about for a very long time. It is one of those occations that you wonder if it would ever come. The thought of seeing my bride walk down the aisle, to be in that moment in which words can't describe. To be with someone who I will spend the rest of my life with. It is an amazing time, it seems like I was just counting down the months, now it is days, soon it will be hours.
I wonder how God views us in the light of this, we are his bride, oh how he longs for us, for that day of being united with him. I am sure I will see so much of God through this new season, I am thankful for you Eve. I am thankful for my family and friends for standing with us. God Bless.
