After my husband's recent heart attack it threw us into a tailspin on many levels. At the same time I had been feeling stagnated in my messages. This began happening a while before the event.

For two whole weeks after everything came about I found myself emptied and dry, and it felt like I was a desert within a desert.

Everything changed. I had so many questions for the Lord and only a blank canvas stood before me. I could not sleep, and was not just praying, I was wrestling in prayer.

"Hungry and thirsty my soul fainted within me...I found no city to dwell in."

I am a woman of faith so it was not that I was lacking faith. My faith was intact. I was so restless. Until one morning an update from a beautiful friend of mine who has cancer and is in dire need came to me.

She told me how sick she is and how there has been no mercy shown towards her from anyone, even her own family. In a moment my heart burned with love for her and God's rescuing mercy was enflamed in me.

I felt a rushing in my spirit and my heart burst out in hot, fiery love for her. God's love in burning fury grabbed a hold of me and everything made sense in my service to His throne for the rest of my life.

This IS the wonderful works of the Lord that God wants, and He is ready and willing right now to let His power flow through us to others.

We are all called to be vessels of His mercy and to live for Christ in fiery burnings of His love. He will take care of the rest of all our needs. There are no blank canvases with God.

"The mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children's children." - Psalm 103;17

“If through a broken heart God can bring His purposes to pass in the world, then thank Him for breaking your heart.”
