Today as I was pondering the thought of getting out of my bed or just laying there with the blankets over my head I ultimately stayed right where I was and began to talk to God. I came before Him as the unworthy servant that I am and began to acknowledge that He is not just a man to have a conversation with...He is God! Why is it that we salute an officer in the Navy, Army, Marines? Yet, when we come before the Lord, on His judgement throne, we so freely speak about what we need, what we want, why this? why that? Isn't He worthy to be praised, honored, revered? This isn't a preaching to the choir motive, it's just what I needed to get through my own skull. I began to speak about how worthy He was and how mighty He is and right then and there, the Lord stopped me and spoke, " Do you know how mighty I am?" I paused, "Yes...well...uh..... He said, " Look out your window." I asked, " What?" This is extremely like me because any time the Lord ever speaks to me, I always ask Him, "WHAT?" and He sweetly says, "Must you always ask questions? Just do as I say my dove." So I got off my bed, walked to the window and peeked out. It was a rather still day and I immediately noticed the neighbor's tree swaying. No other tree around us was moving but their's. As I watched, the breeze slowly crept up and blew over our trees. It was AMAZING. The Lord said, " This is my breath." It was then that I knew of His might, that in one breath of God, He could sway millions of trees and the trees He chose to sway today were mine.
It's one of those, "you had to be there" kind of things but know that He wants to show you His might in such a way that will embed itself forever in your heart.
Blessings my friends~

About Me
- Amber
- I am a 25 year old college grad and am taking the road less traveled. A couple of years ago I moved from my hometown of 20+ years and a life of stability and familiarity to follow the call of the Lord. It sounds a bit crazy but I know my Father's voice and He said to go...so I did. I am a Pre-K teacher and tutor and I believe in relying on the Lord to the best of my human ability for every open door to be provided. He has not failed me yet and I am beginning to think He never will...(He doesn't!He is GOD!)I love playing the guitar and I have been blessed with a voice to praise my maker. I look forward to writing and playing worship music with my future husband(whomever God is bringing) one day and raising an army for Christ.
