Saint Theresa's prayer:

May today there be peace within. May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be. May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith. May you use those gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you. May you be content knowing you are a child of God. Let this presence settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love. It is there for each and every one of us.

the ways you connect absouletly everything to fall right into place.
i found this at such a perfect time,
"for my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways," declares the Lord, "as the heavens are higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts." Isaiah 55:8-9

how many times have i fallen on my knees, pleading for you to see my way? desperatly trying to talk you into doing things my way.. as i continue on along the path you've had planted out for me, i realize how blessed i am. thank you, God! for blessing my life as much as you have, even in moments of heartache and desvasation, yo'uve stood by, right along side me holding me up, whiping my tears promising me this will work out for the best of my benefit.
what a promise!
Jeremiah 29:11-13 "for I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart."

its like this roller coaster, this life. up and down and so rescued and such a rush of freedom and fear thats completly taken away with protection unseen.

time and time again, you tell me "use what i've given you now." the the other day you spoke to me through cindy, saying "if he cant trust you with the smaller things, how can he trust you with the larger things?." she then went on to talk about how you've spoken to her, with the same situation of being humble, admiting that this is the life you've given to me and to bless those through phones with your love, she said "he told me, i choose each and every one of them. every caller i choose for your phone line."
you've chosen all. all you've allowed to happen, i will trust that this is what you've called me to do.
i love you, Lord.
