I made it

Yesterday was a long day. Let's just say I had opposition everywhere I turned. In the physical and in the spiritual realm. At least, this time I wasn't "fearful" traveling by myself. As I sat in Dallas for the 3 hour layover I wasn't able to connect to the internet bc I don't have an air card but I do have my IPHONE :) I was able to read from my Kindle and check in on Facebook. Lisa Shaw I love you and appreciate your prayer that you were led to put up as your status. God really spoke to me and I knew that these trials that had come against me were no coincidence. For heavens sakes I stood in the shower yesterday morning crying out for God to "ANNOINT me in the ways HE wanted and said HERE I am LORD: send me, use me. I am yours; let me glorify YOU"


As I was on my final plane so I took a piece of paper and wrote out a prayer and laid down the offenses that came and what lied ahead and just asked the Lord to forgive me and to let me walk in the Spirit!

I didn't see my dad til this morning. What a beautiful wonderful joyful sight to see! My daddy sitting on the couch with his blanket working away on his computer :) To think last week at this time we didn't even know if he was going to make it! but I think He looks really good. He has lost alot of weight since I left a couple of weeks ago and has the oxygen but overall I just wanted to tackle him and hug him and never let go :) His biggest hurdle is his appetite. Food just doesn't even taste good but he is trying! His throat is feeling better every day which i such a gift and he is really doing good hydrating himself! We get to see his oncologist tomorrow which wasn't suppose to happen until Sept 11 so I am thrilled to get to do that!


For now I am cherishing each moment so please forgive me if I don't get around to alot of blogs this week ~ I will if he is sleeping but I just don't know what to expect just yet and I want to spend each moment with him

love and blessings to you all

Loren,

Use this time, God has provided for you to spend with your dad. You may not be able to win him over with words, but your actions will speaker much louder to him. You both will be in my prayers for God to create the opportunity for you to minister to your dad and for your dad's heart to be opened to receive God's invitation.

Love and Hugs ~ Kat

I'm so thrilled you got that opportunity to see your dad. And I know he must be thrilled to see his loving daughter as well...Praying for this precious moment to be filled with the Lord's love, protection, healing, strength, comfort over all of you. Love you in Christ sister Loren.

I only gave you that advice because I felt that's what the Lord wanted me to tell you that day...and after experiencing it myself...along with my brothers...

Every day goes by so fast. And we can never take it back. Now, even if anything happens, it feels so good to have at least those precious moments, that otherwise would not be created if we didn't do anything and if we had that power to make it happen.

But thanks be to God Who makes it happen in HIS PERFECT TIME!!! You have nothing to be afraid of sister...When He wills something, it doesn't matter what the enemy does, he may cause annoyance but he's never, ever gonna' win for he's already defeated! I'm really happy for you that you have this precious time! So shoo....go be with your dad... :)

God bless and keep you...

What good timing the Lord has. It has been a month or more since Kat had me up on her blog of the week and here you choose today to visit me, leading me to this post. On the day my dearest in life friend went home to be with her mama as she dies. I am not sure what that means except that I feel it is truly of the Lord. Praying for your strength as you walk with Father by your father's side.
