It's Not Luck it's Our Lord

Have you ever looked back on something you are done or said and in retroflect you realize your HEART and INTENTIONS were not in the right place? I believe we all have. Sometimes we make choices out of PRIDE, EGO, INTELLECT, INSECURITY and FEAR. NONE Of which, are from GOD.  My BC (Before Christ) journey was peppered with some things said or events that I was not totally surrendered to HIS will and way. I did not know what GOD wants, what HE is asking me to do, or HIS intentions and motivations for stepping forward in actions or attitudes. YET, in all HIS Graciousness, forgiveness and Merciful nature, HE showed himself at times I least expected it. I am sure you might have those times as well?  The AC (After Christ) journey is totally transformative. It is a life of living with the right heart, with it set to HIS will and way, and in the end it blesses you, others and of course shines a light on the ONE we follow,  and align ourselves with ..Jesus Christ, Our Lord and His Holy Spirit shape our actions, words and deeds. We strive to be in the right heart and mind and depend on HIS infinite ways and wisdom. What a brand new world and life is waiting for us all...when we surrender... 



Psalm 119:36

Turn my heart toward your statutes,
not toward selfish gain.

Colossians 3:17 

And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.

We had a dear friend Charlie, who was color blind. When we bought him glasses to try and correct that, I had NO idea what kind of impact it would have not only on him...but me too!!
     Through his journey of discovering color, intensity, brilliance, and contrast, he taught me how to view our world through "Spiritual lenses"
  Accepting Jesus Christ, GOD and The Holy Spirit you can 'SEE" and entirely different world.   



The Gift that keeps on giving
1 Corinthians 2:14
The natural man does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God. For they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.

Imagine getting a call out of nowhere to help solve something that has been on your heart, and NO ONE knew what you were dealing with. Well, NO ONE in the flesh that is.  Listen how GOD always knows what you are struggling with, through WORDLESS GROANS, even if no one else does. 


Romans 8: 26-28 

 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans.  And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God . And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.

I never thought I could be so elated to see someone eating bacon and eggs. Knowing the back story that led up to that statement, will take you down a path of HOPE, PRAYER, FAITH and SURRENDER.  Many emotions and twists and turns that led to a clear message from the Lord. Journey with me as I tell the story of my Dad and my full surrender. ..and oh yes..the Bacon and Eggs!!


Proverbs 3:5 

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding.

John 4:48 

So Jesus said to him, “Unless you see signs and wonders you will not believe.”

Luke 18:27 

But he said, “What is impossible with man is possible with God.”

God always knows what is best for you. I know it might not always seem that way in the moment, crisis, circumstances or challenges. We don't see the bigger view, HE does. You don't know who might need to be ready to enter your life, and GOD is working on them first. Many moving parts are being worked out and orchestrated for your benefit, even if you think GOD Is silent. Being silent can be a time for your growth and development. Sometimes prayer is not answered right away for a reason, and it is hard to know while you are in the moment. That is why you continue to pray and have FAITH..and know GOD is always with you and will always have your best interest in mind.

Isaiah 55:9
“As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.

If you think you need eloquent words or lengthy prayers to pray to GOD, you are mistaken. Sometimes you only need to call his name...JESUS..and HE knows, HE hears you, and HE will answer. Sometimes HE answers in ways you least expected. Listen to one such time. God Bless you all.

 This is the confidence we have in approaching God: that if we ask anything according to his will, he hears us.

Once we awaken to see the world and its many ways of dividing us, we can clearly see the "sides" It is time to PICK A SIDE..and the side of GOD will always have, LOVE, FORGIVENESS, PEACE, JOY, MERCY & GRACE. The enemy it all its forms will be stirring up hatred, narratives and messaging that enrage us, disagreements, bitterness, ego, pride, depression, hopelessness, destruction and death. NOW is the time. We are living in the greatest move of GOD the world has ever seen. It is time to #Unite. Iti s the time to surrender all that binds & blinds you. God LOVES you and wants the best for your life, purpose and the unique plan He has for your life. Make an effort every day, no matter whom you are with, speaking with, or comes into your space...to be HIM. YOU may be the ONLY JESUS anyone has ever met, and the world and humanity needs more of HIM.

1 Corinthians 1:10
I appeal to you, brothers and sisters, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another in what you say and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly united in mind and thought.

Many of us can feel like we are one moment away from 'losing it" and slipping away. Depression, in many ways is stirred up from evil to stop us from doing GODS work and will. To prevent us from doing our purpose and plan HE has for our life. Knowing what tools, SCRIPTURE, can be used to fight this enemy in the most effective way. You don't have to remain hopeless, unhappy, feelings of dread and depression. GOD is IN the RESCUE...there is no need to feel like you are drowning. GOD has a life preserver for you. It is Jesus, OUR LORD and HIS HOLY SPIRIT.

Ephesians 6:12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.

1 Peter 5:8
Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour.

James 4:7
Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

What lives in our heart can push its way into our mind and out through our words. Many times, we have no idea what is still rotting in our hearts and needs to be purged. It can be as easy as an apology, talking to GOD about it, praying for clarity or surrendering things you are holding on to that you are shameful or feeling guilty about. God wants us to have a pure heart. To be free of the poisons that create toxic emotions and actions. Is it time to look at your heart? What are you holding on to? Unforgiveness, bitterness, anger? Are you holding back MERCY, GRACE, or LOVE to someone? They might not even know you feel that way...and it is polluting your mind, actions and relationship with GOD. This needs to be removed, like a malignancy that keeps growing and spreading disease. A pure, clean, pliable heart is where it starts. Who can you forgive today? Maybe it is yourself... 

A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For the mouth speaks what the heart is full of.

GOD BLESS Suzie
