Stop Running like "Jonah" did!!!

-
I believe God wants to do something in my life if I will just keep holding on and stick with things like going to church and serving where I can.

I went to church Sunday...God always speaks to me in a profound way during worship...Yesterday was no exception. He spoke to me and how I have been like Jonah running from what God has plainly called me to do time after time I have ran from this and ran from that my whole life, especially when things have not gone the way that I thought that they should or when things got hard. 

It has been sooo easy just to walk out the door! I have walked out many doors in my Christian life and you know what, over half those I should have not walked out of them.   Oh GOD please forgive me for being stubborn and not listening for your voice!! 

I should be walking in healing right now, and not running from it!!!   But I am afraid to take that first step. God has healed me from a major debilitating mental illness. I really don't want to stay in this place of not trusting GOD when He has called me to step out of that boat like Peter!!! I am so afraid of sinking Jesus.  The boat has always been safe footing!!! I am in a good place and a safe church.  I am so loved there, and I should be taking hands of my family of GOD!

God, please help me to reach out not only to you but to my church leaders and take that final step of deliverance. That will the first step in walking in my ultimate healing.

I always see a flower before it blooms.                               Richard T Hicks 2020 I was not always like that.  Why and exactly how in the world did my perspective change over the years? I used to be completely opposite.  I was a Norman Negative and Pessimistic Peter. You name it, I was it. I seen the glass half empty never half full. I was a constant worrier about the future and lived in the past. It was as if everyday was a drudgery.   All I could see before me as all my mistakes I had made in my life. All I seen in the mirror was one big mistake. It is as if I lived mistake after mistake. I felt like a scratched up record that could not be fixed.   Before I fell asleep at night not only did my mind replay the negative from that day but it was like it domino'ed a past of bad negative choices I had made in life surfaced....  I wanted to die but was afraid to...  It would keep me up for hours tormenting my mind..... I don't really think I am the only

It’s Already Been Done!!

Dear Jesus I just want to take the time to say I appreciated all you have done for me through your sacrificial death on that dark and cruel cross.   You didn’t have to do it… but you did.   It makes me sad that you had to die to make this all possible…but you did it without hesitation.  All my love and life I owe to You… Thank you ABBA for your grace and mercy poured out upon all people on this earth.   Draw them and give them a revelation of your divine glory.  For you gave your only son.   I am so grateful to you for redeeming me so I wouldn’t have to die.   For Jesus has already been on that cross and already experienced my destruction in the grave.  He already died once for all creation.   For in Adam we have died already, but through Christ we have been made alive through that glorious resurrection by the power of your Holy Spirit.   Yes God has already done it all through the power of His Spirit.    For He has already seated us in heavenly places in Jesus.   He has given us a hop

Not in a Hurry

A flower does not get in a hurry.  It takes its time to grow and bloom in beautiful and intrinsic ways. Just like us as believers we do not instantly bloom.  We  may start as a seed.  We want to be in such a hurry but it takes grace to be patient….and trust too.  It takes time and space to grow. Lots of tender loving care.   We shouldn’t worry about blooming for our time will come without one worry how we will turn out … Dear Jesus,  help me I pray to not be in a hurry or to compare my heart to to anyone else for in due time we will flourish and bloom like the red rose 🌹 on a sunny spring day…Amen.
