Quiet Space (Poem)

We walk around living life as if it's our own. Wake up, go to work or school and then back home.
Minute by minute we plan our day; everything gets done is what we pray.
Maybe sending the kids off to school is the first thing that's done. Meeting, doctor's appointment, Zumba, or shopping up next and off we run.
Have we thought to give God some space? While we're running around from place to place.
Where will we find the time? The time to sit, pray and silence our minds.
Allowing God, our Father to whisper in our ear. In the midst of the quietness we will be able to hear.
Those things that He desires for us to see; but in His presence is where we must be.
So, while you are planning activities for the day, be sure to create that much needed quiet space.

"'Before daybreak the next morning, Jesus got up and went out to an isolated place to pray.'"

God's Plans are Fail Proof

Have you ever made plans to do something or go somewhere and end up not doing it or not going? Yes, we can make plans all day long to do what pleases us. We can make plans to hang out with some friends or family but then we end up having car trouble. Or maybe we have planned to take a trip, then something else comes up and we have to cancel our trip. It seems that our plans have the ability to fail.
However, when we consult God about his plans for our lives we find that those plans always come to pass. Because the word of God says in Isaiah 55:11, "So shall My word be that goes forth from my mouth, it shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it." Over the past several years, I have heard Minister Coriya Falker say many times and learned from my experiences that my plans may fail but God's plans are fail-proof. There's nothing He has spoken that has not occurred from the beginning of time God has spoken and that which He spoke came to be. So I'm leaning on God to lead me. I can't lose with God's plan!

One Love,

Valerie
