Do something sacrificial this week!

Good Evening Everyone,
I have decided to pen a quick note while I am conscience. You see last night, Friday September 29, 2012, our church had its first all night prayer sacrifice. Prayer was from 9pm until 6am.
My day started at 7am that morning, I had grandma duty at Mikah’s school. Other responsibilities, appointments, and chores ended at 2:30 pm. Picked Mikah up at 3:00 and Araina at 3:30, we were home by 4pm.
The girls and I talked, played, and sang from 4-5pm. They took a bath from 5-6pm, yes, a whole hour because they bathe together and of course more laughing and playing is involved. “Grandma why are we going to bed so early it’s still light outside?” Asked Araina, that question allowed me to explain where we were going and who we would be talking to all night. “We are gonna sleep at church?” They asked, yes! I answered. The excitement of wearing their PJ’s, and sleeping in their sleeping bags overwhelmed everything else.
Mikah’s Dad came over before work and spent time with her and Araina from 6-8. His visit freed me to, wash sleeping bags, pack other things needed, shower, prepare dinner and clean kitchen before taking off.
By this time, 8pm, I am yawning uncontrollably, I had been moving for over 12 hours and now I will have to push through for another 10 hours(8pm to 6am) before going to sleep.
But I made it, and my girls marched around church, sang, ate their snacks, sang some more, and marched even longer until sleep chased them down and they fell asleep. The four year old lasted until about 11pm and my seven year old grandbaby lasted until 12am. God will bless their sacrifice.
Grandma hung in there, I remained, without sleep until 6am this morning. Praise God, God is doing some of the most awesome things at Kingdom Life Changers International Church, come and be a part!
I bless the LORD for all things, He alone is worthy, and He gives strength to the week, and honors our sacrifices.
Worthy is the Lord. I am still full and in great anticipation of the days ahead. Details at 11
Do something sacrificial this week!
Love Ya,

There is a Larger, unseen picture so hang in there!

There is a bigger unseen picture, so hang in there!

I was watching a Clint Eastwood movie where Clint, the sharp shooter, was expected to shoot the bad guys and save the family.
When he did not, all looked at him as a coward. They, the onlookers did not know Clint had a larger plan a plan that would not only save the family, but end corruption in the town, and net him a pretty large sum of cash.
If he had made his move when everyone else thought he should have, the outcome would have been different. Clint held his peace and carried out his plan as scheduled, not too early or late, but as planned.

God has a plan for each of us, and at times it appears He is moving to slow however your life is right on schedule according to God’s plan.
Don’t allow onlookers to make you jump ahead of God.
Don’t feel like a failure because you haven’t obtained a certain status by a certain age, rest in the comfort of knowing God got you and things are moving according to His plan.

Jeremiah 29:11
For I know the thoughts/plans that I think/have towards you, says the Lord, thoughts/plans of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope. Jeremiah 29:11

Pray, Praise, read and obey the Word of God, then trust God for the outcome.
Love Ya,
Carolyn Denise
