Firsts

Good morning! My [first] blog. I have contemplated the idea of blogging for a couple of years now but found it heavy on my heart to start one today. I almost consider it to be a way to witness to the unbelievers and to encourage those who do believe! So I hope you find my topics and blogs to be interesting and exciting! I will probably find myself talking a lot about my son and the milestones we come across as well as the trials we conquer [hopefully]. But as for now, I am just relaxing with my cup of coffee reading one of my favorite books, "New day, New you" by Joyce Meyer. Todays reading is talking about how we need to have a confident heart. Whatever we do for the Lord, the devil will try to do something to cause us to lose confidence. He doesn't want us to have confidence in our prayers. He doesn't want us to believe we can hear from God. He doesn't want us to have any confidence concerning the call on our life. He wants us to go around feeling like a failure. That is why we need to keep a confident heart within us all the time. We shouldn't drag ourselves out of bed each day in fear or discouragement. Instead, we should get up every morning prepared to keep Satan under our feet. 

I love that! It is so encouraging. Often times I will think of the horrible day I had yesterday or the night where my son was up every hour and I know Satan is just smiling down there but it is encouraging to know that God is so powerful and can wash away those evil thoughts and turn them into positive ones. 

"My heart is fixed, O God, my heart is steadfast and confident!" Psalm 57:7


Have a blessed day :)
