Daughters of…..

I often time find myself being quite critical…of myself…. when it comes to pictures.  It seems like I can always find something “wrong” with the way I look, or stand, or smile.

The other day I was in that “mode”…….just being transparent here!

 Abba Father spoke directly to my heart.

“You are my daughter. And I am the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.”

My heart suddenly burst with love. Sometimes as women we are too hard on ourselves…for whatever reason.  

But….

We are “Daughters of the King”.

And you know what?  It means we are Princesses.

And I am not kidding. This 57 year old is thrilled to be so loved……………….

You may not be one of those women, and if not….that is great.  But chances are someone around you is struggling, so see it as an oppportunity to be an encouragment!

He is There

There is not enough money for Christmas….

Both sets of parents are ill and need constant help…..

A good friend was just diagnosed with cancer….

A job was lost and no severance pay was offered….

An adult daughter won’t admit she has a serious drug problem….

A husband of 25 years just left his wife for a “younger version”….

Your personal health is getting worse each and every day……

Anxiety and depression are your constant companions…..

Remember that Jesus Christ is now sitting on the right hand of the Father interceding for you.

You are not alone in your pain, your hurt, your sorrow.

He loves you in the midst of it all.

You many feel alone, you may not have peace…

BUT by faith, HE is there.

Faith allows us to believe that which doesn’t seem real.

Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today and tomorrow….

Just rest in HIM.  

You are loved.

Yesterday was my husband’s birthday.  I realized that I had not shared about his hobby on my blog before.  He is an artist and is very good, in my humble opinion 😉  His work is at http://www.southernillinoismercantileco.com  

He also has a Facebook page you are welcomed to check out and like if you wish…https://www.facebook.com/aaallgaierartwork/

I thought I would share a bit of his work.  I admit I am a bit biased…..but it is a joy watching him do something he loves. He loved to paint and sketch as much as I like to write.

These are just a few of his pieces.  Each piece is signed with:

1 Corinthians 10:31 “So then, whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do all to the glory of [our great] God.” AMP

So love what you do, and do what you love…..I write, he paints and sketches. We will never be rich and famous….but we will always be content.
