Reset

Reset -  to set again or anew; to move (something) back to an original place or position; to put  back in the correct position for healing


What if we moved around the definition of reset and it read: to put back in the correct position for healing (so that it can be) set again or anew.  Wow!  Reset me Lord! 


I feel as though I have been reset.  The things I need healing from are going to be made whole because I have put it in His hands.  I have allowed him to reset me and put me back where I was supposed to be all along so that I can be made whole and new.  

I ask you the same questions I've asked myself.  


Have you:

really given it all to Him?
stopped asking how this will happen and just walked with him?
let go and given up control of the situation?
stopped trying to figure it out?
stopped staying up all night thinking about how YOU can make things better?
spent time with Him at all lately?
asked yourself, "Do I really know who He is?"  


Imagine you're in a crowd of people with a friend.  You are in an unfamiliar place with unfamiliar people and to be quite honest, maybe a little scared.  You rely on that friend to lead you and guide you to where you need to be.  You take ahold of that persons hand and let them lead you through the noise and the crowd and the chaos and the unfamiliar.  You just trust.  


Sometimes we need to stop looking around and trying to figure how WE will get ourselves out of the CROWD and just grab His hand and let Him lead the way.  


We need to reset.  Get back to the foundation of who we are in Him, not who we are in ourselves. Not what we have to offer this world but what He has to offer this world through us.  We have to reset, clean out ourselves, get back to the basics of knowing Him, finding Him, loving Him, and trusting Him.



Get back to the basics.  What are the basics? What is the foundation?  Simple.  You and Him and how well you know him.  Everything else will just fall into place.

What are we listening to?

I recently purchased this book called Women of the Word which was recommended to me by a friend.  It's a year long devotional of 52 women in the Bible.  I'm on week one and God is already using it to teach me.  EVE WHAT GOD SAID:  You are free to eat from any tree in the garden; but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat from it you will certainly die. WHAT EVE TOLD THE ENEMY GOD SAID:  We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, but God did say, "You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and  you must not touch it,  or you will die." WHAT THE ENEMY TOLD EVE:  You will not certainly die,  for God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil. First -  Eve added to God's word. Second - so did the enemy. Seeing this leads me to ask two questions: 1. How of...

DO NOT LEAVE ME ALONE!!!

Lord, use me.  A prayer I've prayed a million times.  But lately I've been doing some soul searching, or rather God has been telling me about myself. (Don't you love when he does that.)  I've always wanted to be used by God greatly.  I've said that I've surrendered all, sang the song a million times, and just turn around to pick up all the junk I've laid on the alter for the 15th time that month and try to figure out this "surrendered" life I'm supposed to lead.  I've tried to map out how he can use me, where he can use me, and what he will have me doing.  Well let me just tell you folks, my head has been stuck in the sand for many years.  Now don't get me wrong, I've always wanted what God wanted for me and although I've put up a fight for a few things, I usually give in, hang my head like a little girl, and say "You were right all along and I should have listened the first time."  Why do us girls always try to figu...

From Choctaw to Uganda

So I'm just going to warm you in advance that this post will be mushy and sentimental.  Ok..you've been fully warned. :) This year's trip to Uganda will be much more special in one particular way…i will be sharing it with someone who is so dear to my heart.  We aren't the type of people to sit and talk about how we feel to each other or to tell each other what we mean to each other but I knew that at least one of these blog posts would be dedicated to her.   See, this girl has gotten me through some really hard times in my life.  She is a friend, a family member, and most of all my sister.  Growing up, I had to go through things that thankfully most children that age never have to experience.  I had a very sick little sister who was in and out of the hospital many times during my childhood.  During those hospital stays, I would live with my grandmother.  This girl stuck by me through it all.  I don't know if she really understood what her pre...
