Just a Daisy in the Meadow
I'm a busy, young mom with children ages 6,5(David & Daisy, and Jewel are "forever young" in heaven),4,3,2 and baby. I love my husband dearly who wooed my heart while I was in bad health. I've had cancer twice now, but God has graciouly renewed my strength. He's given me grace for each new day and trial here.

This morning I was listening to a cd and these words stuck out,
“Give it all, give it all to Jesus and He will turn your sorrow into joy. He never said we’d only see sunshine, He never said there’d be no rain. He only promised a heart full of singing, about the very things that once brought pain. So give them all to Jesus and He will turn your sorrow into joy!”
. . . and another song, “Hidden valleys will make the heart strong . . .hidden valleys turn shepherds to Kings”
So how does God go about bring a heart change? . . . How does it happen that our hearts soften and we let God mold it into what He desires?
I just know that we can’t get away from . . . He doesn’t give up on us! Praise the Lord!
“Whither shall I do from Thy Spirit?
Or whither shall I flee from Thy prescence?
If I ascend up into heaven Thou art there,
If I make my bed in hell, behold thou art there.
If I take the wings of the morning and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,
even there shall thy hand lead me and thy right hand shall hold me.” Psalm 139:7-10
He “compasseth” our paths and keeps bringing us back to what He desires to do in us until we yield or harden ourselves . . .
“Thou copasseth my path and my lying down,
and art aquainted with all my ways . . .
Thou hast set me behind and before
And laid thy hand upon me . . . “ Psalm 139:3-6
God is so good to relentlessly love and chasten us until
“My stubborn will at last had yielded, I would be thine and thine alone . . .”
And so today I praise Him for pursing me in love, for this particular pruning in my life, for chastening me as a daughter . . .
Hebrews 12:7 “If ye endure chasting, God dealeth with you as with sons;
for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not?
God is good, He has put gladness in my heart . . . and my heart doth dwell in safety!
. . for “Thou hast put gladness in my heart, more than in the time that their corn and their wine increased. I will both lay me down in peace and sleep, for Thou, Lord, makest me dwell in safety.” Psalm 3:7-8"

YOU are one lady with A LOT of energy! I would have left the tomatoes out of the picture, but then again, that's why I still have tomatoes on my counter and you don't. :)
