My Husband and God's Faithfulness!

It's not his Birthday or Fathers Day, but tonight I just wanted to write about this man, I call my husband. His name is Hamilton Franco and while we drive one another crazy at times, I love him!

This November, Hamilton and I will celebrate ten years together and this past April 7th we celebrated eight years of marriage. My husband truly does have a big heart!! He loves God, our beautiful kids and his wifey " Yours Truly". He's not perfect, but he's no quitter either. He'll fight the good fight for the Christian faith, taking hold of his everlasting life to which he's been called to serve us and others. He's committed to provide for us, he helps me around the house and my most treasured blessing of all is his attention to our kids and desire to teach them about our Heavenly Father.

I'm thankful for the gift of prayer, the power that it has and the work of the Holy Spirit. On Saturday, I got to come alongside of my husband and witness God use him in a BIG WAY. I've never heard the Spirit teach through my hubbys lips, so it was such a proud moment for me. He shared about the love of Jesus and living hope to many hurting hearts at a funeral. He challenged them to think of what kind of legacy were they building to leave behind. He reminded them that life is but a vapor and because tomorrow is not promised, we need to make amends with broken relationships and forgive. The words were eloquent with a calm and peaceful delivery. I've never been more proud! We both know it was all God, because boiiii were we both nervous! Lol!

We've gone through alot in eight years, we've hurt one another and there were times I wanted to give up. But the Holy Spirit wouldn't let me and my accountability prayed for me and kept me, accountable to God's Word. Our marriage isn't perfect, nor will it be. We need God every second of every day of our lives. We don't know what our future holds, but we know who holds our future and God's word promises us that He will never leave us nor forsake us. So, we plan our days, while God directs our steps into His perfect will for us as a family. All for Gods Glory.

I'll close with this... God is Faithful! and the POWER OF PRAYER is REAL!!! There is power in the name of Jesus!! There's nothing too hard for God! He's God!! All we need to do is be ObeDIEnt to Him. We need to seek God 1st, above everything and everyone, even our spouses! #matthew6:33

God bless our marriages!!

Jesus! Jeremiah! And Psalm 8

This morning, I clearly heard the Lord telling me to ask Jeremiah to sit with me and read His word together. We usually have devotions on Thursday night with my husband, but it's my responsibility as their Mommy to also sit with our kids. I confess that I am not consistent. I read. I allow God to pour into me, but how selfish of me, not to include my kids in a more consist way! Well, that changes as of today! And you can keep me accountable. No! Really I challenge you, to challenge me! And don't you just LOVE IT when God speaks to you and then He totally sends confirmation afterward? The Lord, said... Read a Psalm and because today is July 8th, we read Psalm 8. v.2 " Out of the mouths of babes and nursing infants, You have ordained strength because of your enemies, that you may silence the enemy and the avenger". Children (that's us) are able to trust and praise God without doubt or reservations. As we get older, many of us, find this more difficult...

Today was a day filled with many sweet nuggets on "Growth" 2 Peter 3:18 reminds us: "Grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory both now and forever. Amen" Raise your hand if you want to grow in the knowledge of the Lord! I know I do! If we're not careful, we can get complacent and remain seated on the "comfort zone" couch. Gods Word is essential in our lives, and it is how we grow. Jesus loves us and we can grow in His knowledge by diligently committing ourselves to having quiet time with Him, daily. We are His lilies among the thorns of life and He wants to equip us for every trial, challenge and struggle. All our answers are in the Bible, it is our manual to walking hand in hand with Jesus. Do you know what else is essential in our Christian walks? Sharing His love. When was the last time you told a perfect stranger... "Jesus loves you"? Because if you ...

Thinking Of Heaven

Heaven! James! And the Introduction! I was thinking of Heaven today. I was thinking of how exciting it will be when I'm in the presence of my Jesus! I picture myself arriving and hugging my Lord 1st and foremost and immediately asking him to show me where James is. I want to thank him personally for this amazing letter he wrote. The book of James, is mind blowing bold in it's own right. You know how you can read and study a book in the Bible and then you read and study it again and it just speaks to you in a whole new way? Yup! Its like that. James teaches us the right Christian behavior and doesn't sugar coat anything. It doesn't matter what version you try reading this book in, you will feel conviction in your heart if you are humbly honest with yourself. With well chosen words, James reminds us that it's not enough to talk the Christian faith, he says; we must live it (2.14) The proof of the reality of our faith is a changed life. He... Outl...

All For His Glory
