Gods' heart

On facebook I had posted in my status Lord break my heart for what break yours and give me the wisdom to understand it. A friend responded Wow! you are brave and I hope God gives you blessings. Well, to be truthful Iam really not that brave I just want a understanding of what God wants, his desires and what hurts him. I know that is alot to ask for but I feel in order to have a better of understanding of the call on my life that God has for me. I need to get it. I mean how can I reach out if I dont get it? How can I help someone in need if I dont get it? For some people this is easy stuff or you might say no brainer stuff. For me it comes alittle bit harder so my prayer for people out in this big scary world like me is for God to help us get it. I probaly should add a boldness in faith to share God's word along with that. So, heavenly father hear our prayer that we have an understanding of what breaks your heart and give the wisdom to understand it. Give us an boldness of faith to carry that out. Be understanding with us as we try to upgrade ourselves while we reach out. Thank you for all the forgivness you do and know that we truly and honestly want to be what you called us to be. Amen

Icescraper...

One day last summer I was cleaning out my van and came across my icescraper. I threw it away thinking that I would get another one when winter its. Well, basically I was taking advantage of something as simple as a $2.50 icescraper. Along with that I was not being wise with my money. I know you are thinking it is only $2.50 whats the deal? Well... winter came and I was trying to be diligent with my money and would not break down and buy a icescraper. The weird thing I would by a $2.75 white chocolate mocha without blinking an eye. I was on my way to get a coffee and the Lord spoke to me "How can I help you with your finances when you wont help yourself?" Wow that was powerful to me. Yup you guessed no coffee that day. Iam still in need of a icescraper and everytime I went to buy one the Lord said "no". I have been using a broken melted down spatula to clean the ice of my van windows. Telling myself I just need to break down and buy one. Then the Lord who is always faithful and forgiving {I have bought some coffee since that morning he talked to me.} provided a icescraper for me. My credit union was having a grand-opening event and one could win a prize . I won a car pack which include a c.d holder, tire gauge, sunglassed holder, sun shade, and yup a icescraper!! The Lord is so good he made me realize not to take advantage of things that I have and to be wise with my money. To be thankful for the little stuff and to take care of the things that he provides. In thinking back I can see a the little and big things that God has done for me and my family we are truly blessed.
