"The Lord's love never ends; His mercies never stop. They are new every morning; Lord, your loyalty is great. I say to myself, "The Lord is mine, so I hope in him." Lam 3:22-24

The Story Revealed

Formerly known as "Life can always be Enjoyable" Gods Promises Anew stems from a book that I've been working on about how one can enjoy life even in the midst of the storms that come our way....

Devotional reading will be posted when time permits in the hopes that they will be read and help those who read it...

I am really excited to see where this will lead in the coming years. So keep looking back here on on this blog and see just where God will take this new avenue ...

A New Phase

Man oh Man,

I have fallen way to far behind on this, I have been super busy though and a lot of things are happening that were unexpected but really Good, as you all have figured out by now :-)

I am not finishing my thoughts on how God is Faithful just yet, but I am working on some other things, that i Will bring up to you at a different time.

For now I just want you all to know just how amazing God can be if we let him, there is not much more to say than those words, but....

God has given each and every one of us a hope to hold on to, for me right now it is the wonderful promise of begging a new phase in my life, it can be scary sometime to know that in just a few short months I won't be living with my Dad in what has become know as the Bachelor Pad, well it will still be know as that, I just won't be one any more :-).

I will beginning such a wonderful part of my life with someone who is so much more than I ever should have been blessed with, and I'm so excited about that. So it is indeed a scary thought to know that I will be starting something completely knew, but it is also something that brings peace to my heart to know that God blessed me with It any way's.

I have a feeling that God has something amazing in store for each and every one of us, and I will post some more thoughts on this later this week. As for now, I'm just letting any and all know who might read this that GOD IS TRULY AMAZING, HE HAS SUCH A WONDERFUL PLAN FOR EACH AND EVERY ONE OF US.....

don't ever forget what he has promised you,

"Let us hold unswervingly to the hope that you profess for he who has promised is faithful" Hebrews 10:23

Take and Eat of what the Lord has given you,

Blessings & Shalom,

M.E.

God is Faithful Pt 2

Hey Guys,

There is a song that has been playing over and over again in my heart and on the radio called Faithful and it is written by Steven Curtis Chapman....

It shows to me just how faithful God truly is and it is something that we need to hold on to. God gives us things that are spectacular but he also takes things from us when the time comes. Granted the time does not always come when we want it to but there is a reason for the timing.

To speak from personal experience, just over a year in a half ago my mother was taken from me and my world turned completely upside down and my path even though it seems easy was not an easy one to embark upon. Inside my heart cried out "I am Broken, I am Bleeding, I'm Scared and I'm Confused" but what I had to come to terms with was the Fact that God was Faithful to me. I had to begin to cry out "You are Faithful Lord, You are Faithful, I am weary, and can't believe this, PLEASE DEAR LORD HELP MY UNBELIEF, cuz i know that you are faithful"

I had to learn to proclaim to the world just how faithful God was in light of the traumatizing experience of Loving someone so close to me. My Mother was my Inspiration in life she was the one that helped me through everything in my life, personally I needed to Learn to depend on God for those things instead of my Mother, I had to step on a different path so to speak, embrace the Fathers Love and not dwell on the Love that was about to be taken from me. I learned such a valuable lesson from this experience...

I posted a blog from another one of my sites that told me to "keep singing and praising his name" no matter what was taking place I had to believe that God was Faithful and that this time of great sorrow and un-imaginable pain, that I had to work through. I had to learn that everything in side of me had to point directly to God, and to be honest I didn't want to. My life changed so much and it will never be the same again after that experience, to this day I still struggle with the reasons behind it but when those times come "I scream it into the Dark, YOU ARE FAITHFUL, and with everything is side of me I choose to believe that there was a purpose in all that took place....

Through loosing my mother I learned one of the most valuable lessons I will ever learn, "In Your hands you hold the sun, the moon, the stars up in the sky, for the sake of Love, You hung Your own Son on the cross...to die..."

God holds everything in balance in our lives and has a reason for everything under the sun as it says in Ecclesiastes, in many ways I needed to be released from the Love I had for my Mother so I could learn the Love of God and how to truly love those around me. For the longest time I couldn't figure this out because of my unbelief but through my more resent experiences I'm learning so much more about how "God is Faithful, and that all I have to do is wait for the rescue, that I know is sure to come and to believe that HE is indeed SO FAITHFUL, I CAN'T HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS, BUT HE IS FAITHFUL".....

With every thing is side of me I CHOOSE TO BELIEVE THAT GOD IS FAITHFUL....

Following the salutation are the lyrics one of the songs that have become so close to my heart....

Blessings & Shalom,

M.E.

PS (I still have more to say about this, so keep coming back...)

I am broken, I am bleeding,
I'm scared and I'm confused,
but You are faithful.
Yes You are faithful.
I am weary, unbelieving.
God please help my unbelief!
Cuz You are faithful.
Yes You are faithful.

I will proclaim it to the world.

I will declare it to my heart
And sing it when the sun is shining.
I will scream it in the dark.

You are faithful!

You are faithful!
When you give and when You take away,
even then still Your name
is faithful!
You are faithful!
And with everything inside of me,
I am choosing to believe
You are faithful.

I am waiting for the rescue

that I know is sure to come,
cuz You are faithful.
Yes You are faithful.
I've dropped anchor in Your promises,
and I am holding on,
cuz You are faithful.
God You are faithful.


I will proclaim it to the world.

I will declare it to my heart
And sing it when the sun is shining.
I will scream it in the dark.

You are faithful!

You are faithful!
When you give and when You take away,
even then still Your name
is faithful!
You are faithful!
And with everything inside of me,
I am choosing to believe You're faithful.

So faithful...


Though I cannot have the answer

that I'm wanting to demand,
I'll remember You are God
and everything is in Your hand.
In Your hands you hold the sun, the moon,
the stars up in the sky,
for the sake of Love, You hung Your own Son
on the cross...to die...

You are faithful...

Yes, You are faithful...
When you give and when You take away,
even then, great is Your faithfulness!
Great is Your faithfulness!

And with everything inside of me,

I am choosing to believe You're faithful!
Oh, oh, oh...
Oh, oh, oh...
When you give and when You take away,
even then still Your name
is faithful!
You are faithful!
And with everything inside of me,
I am choosing to believe...

...You're faithful...

Faithful PT1

Hey Guys,

God is always reminding us to be faithful to him in all things, God has been showing me tons of things and I'm so exited about them. It is simply amazing how God does so many wonderful things for us when we depend on him for every thing.

When it comes to times when we feel like there is nothing left to hold on to, God is there he is guiding us along the way just because he cares for us. He has so much love for each and every one of us, and it is a love that is beyond our comprehension.

In John chapter 10 we find the alliteration of Jesus as the Good Shepherd, and through that particular passage we can find something to hold on to when those hard times come in our lives. It is amazing to me to read just how much Jesus cares for his chosen people.

In devotions today there was a selection that caught my attention...

"Sometimes He guides us to the rest of the green pastures, and the quiet still waters. In Other words, we are left through happy months and years to fulfill the ordinary commonplaces of life, content to fill a little space, and receiving great increments of spiritual force for future service...The way is sunny, above precipitous cliffs, beneath the dark turbid stream, but this is well, we would not always be lying the pastures or walking softly by the waters. It is good to climb the heights with their far view and bracing air..."

I don't know what this would mean to anyone else, but for me it shares that there will be times when we have to go through struggles, but God will always guide us through them...

I have more to say about this but for know I'll leave with this,

"Walk boldly and wisely. There is a hand above that is guiding you every step of the way"

Blessings & Shalom,

M.E.
