~I Have Been Chosen~

Lately I have been thinking about my next couple of years and where God might want me. Questions spring in my head like….

What am I going to be doing this summer?

Where am I going this summer?

Where are you calling me God?

Where am I going after I graduate?

What will I do?

What do you want from me?

What can I do?

Let tell me you I am not worried at all I am more just thinking about what God is planning for me in the next couple of years. It is rather exciting. I look to God for direction and guidance with these questions. I give them all over to Him. I give my thoughts, my dreams, and my life to Him.

One thing that has been popping up for me in the last little while is Ephesians 1 after I read that chapter I found it very encouraging to me especially where I am right now. I encourage you all to read or re-read it. It is so good. There were a couple verses that really stuck out to me I’ll share a few with you.

In him we were also chosen, having been predestined according to the plan of him who works out everything in conformity with the purpose of his will, in order that we, who were the first to hope in Christ, might be for the praise of his glory. And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession—to the praise of his glory.

When I read these verses and the rest of chapter one, I really felt God speaking that into me. I felt him confirming my thoughts and my questions. Saying ‘everything is in my hands Jessie, just trust me.’ I felt so encouraged. I find that every time I read it I feel more and more wrapped in God arms. I feel the peace of Christ all around me. I so encouraged. FOR HE IS AMAZING GOD!!! HE IS BEAUTIFUL!!! I want to be wrapped in His Glory!! Thank You Jesus!!!!

Take these verses and be ecouraged. Make these your own between you and God.

WE HAVE BEEN CHOSEN BY THE KING OF KINGS AND THE LORD OF LORDS. THE EVERY HAND THE CREATED THIS WORLD HAS CHOSEN US TO BE HIS OWN CHILDREN. THE HAND THAT CREATED THIS WORLD WAS ALSO BORN IN THE MOST HUMBLING OF PLACES… A STABLE. JESUS YOU ARE SO GOOD!!!!

~Breathe~

Breathe in
Breathe out

Every breath I take
I breathe in Your Kingdome
You’re Holy Spirit
You’re Creation
You’re Glory

Breathe in
Breathe out

I absorb the quietness
The moment
Where I am with You

Jesus said
Fear not
For
I am
With you

In the Stillness
You are there

Be Still
And know
That
I am
God
~ Psalm 46:10

Thank you Jesus, for You are so great and Your love is unchanging. For you breathed life into me.

God has been showing things He wants to clear out of me. I can say some things are easy and well others… not so much. What I can say is that I do like the feeling of being clean and I like it most when Jesus cleans me. I am finding the Lord taking things that I do and that are natural to me and saying-‘get rid of this and that’ I love my Father as my Father loves me. I Thank God, for showing me where I am wrong so I can continue to pursue Him more deeply.

Just wanted to share with you a little bit of what is going on for me.

Merry Christmas!

~Truly Was An Answer To Prayer~

Today was an amazing day!! It truly was an answer to prayer. Many of you know my Dad. Many of you also know that he is a solid believer in Christ. Many of you don't know that I have dreamed of the day where my dad can see for himself where I go to church and how the community here worships God as one body. I had been praying for this day for a while, that my dad and I could worship together and he could see me worshiping God in a different setting than he is use to.

My dad drove here just to go to church with here today!!! We got to church and he and my pastor hit it off right away. As I was singing and worshipping I felt so thankful that my dad was able to come to church with me. I began thank God for His goodness. As I stood there next to my dad worshipping my heavenly Father, I began to cry with tears of happiness. This truly was an answer to prayer!! My dad said he really enjoyed the service and loved what my pastor had to share. He also said that he had preached on something very similar to that the week before so it was really good.

Thank you so much Jesus. You are so faithful and so wonderful. I love you so much! Continue to do what you’re doing in me.!!

~Where Are The Women and Young Girls?~

I just recently write a paper for school of Chinese women and girls, and why they are missing. The question is why are there so many women and young girls missing in China? It is because there are people form Easter Europe that human traffic these women and young girls. They become poverty to pimps. What are they used for? Their jobs are now to sell their bodies for money. This sickens me. My hearts breaks for these people. The pimps have complete control over them. They can torture them, chain them, drug them, and put in them into brothel homes. There are young girls as young as 4 are being rapped on a daily basis. Jesus help people. The sex trade is a multi - billionaire industry. These women have no choice but to do have say they are told. Their lives have been snatched away from them. It hurts me so much. This isn't just happening to Chinese the women; it’s going on all over the world. This is the slavery of the 21st century.

God please I am asking for a break through. I am pray for freedom from slavery. Change the hearts of these people who are buying the women and children. Have these people turn the hearts to you Jesus.

It's time to be praying for women and young girls all around the world who have been bought into sex slavery. JESUS SHOW YOUR FACE TO THESE PEOPLE!!!! MY HEART ACHES! IT BREAKS!!!

It's worth watching.

God Bless you this day

~Dream~

Lately I have been praying for the salvation of my friends from high school. God has laid them heavy on my heart.Monday night I remember I had a dream.

In my dream I was crusade or something it was take place underneath with huge tent. I remember John Crowder was there and he was praying for people by laying on of hands. The only people there I knew were all my friends my high school. I remember John was first laying hands on all the guys. I looked over and these guys I once knew unbelievers were getting filled with the Holy Spirit. I saw some of them weeping.I saw hearts being changed and transformed. I saw that there was conviction in their eyes. I remember looking around and almost being in tears because I had been praying for this day for so long.

Then John came over to me, I didn't look at him I was so focused on what God was in all my friends that I never even thought about myself. As John got closer I felt the presences of the Holy Spirit on him. It was so thick. I remember there was some of my friends standing behind me incase I fell.

Jesus you are so good. I love you so much. You how much I care for my friends. I pray that you will continue to work in them and show them more of who you are. I pray that they will stop rejecting you and begin accepting you. JESUS THEY NEED YOU!! If anyone feels the Lord is saying something to you about this dream please feel free to let me know. Thanks!
