Over the years, There have been many things the Lord has had to deliver me from in order that I would not be a complete spiritual know it all to everyone I meet. Plainly, the main thing He reveals to me is I don’t see all that The Lord is doing in all cylinders. So instead, through His Army Bootcamp, reminding me that if He is for me, who can be against me, He has developed and refined me into a listener, learner and pray-er first. Being offended as many people are so easily today and brings many to ruin, has taken a back of the bus seat for me. God speaks to me very plainly through His Word through reading what He says and through His Spirit led conviction.

Things like watching The Chosen because my husband wanted to watch it. Things like anger because whether righteous or totally foolish anger, God may still be crushing the pride or offense of man. I still remember the time when my husband first prayed with me, i cried the entire time (and i still cry) because God is a Redeeming God. Nothing is wasted In Christ, even the sin of man is redeemed through countless ways The Lord desires and plans to teach His pupils.

Sanctification with my husband and I together continues by His Amazing Grace.

For years sanctification was for me to sit alone, to abide In His Word, preparing for the spiritual war of the day. Now over the last 3 years God has sweetly answered my plea to enjoy God together, in fact it was a plea I thought was selfish (because somehow Jesus should be enough, though I knew He was and is). The enemy loved to try to use that prayer against me. But Father, You interceded for me in my wordless groans that To enjoy You with my husband In His Grace, without exasperation or contempt. To be on this side of things still brings me to tears, every day. How merciful are you my Savior. You are!  There’s more Mercy In You than sin in me or those You have blessed me with. I Thank You Lord Jesus.
