I Want To Thank You All, The Reader's Of This Blog. The Very One's That God Breathed The Breath Of Life Into. Strengthening In Faith Will Allow You To Fulfill What God Has Called YOU To Fulfill In Your Life. Are You Willing To Accept This Opportunity? The Choice Truly Is Yours.

I woke up this morning with wanting to thank you all, the reader's of this blog. It was on my heart to be thankful for all of you and to specifically encourage you in your faith walk with the Lord. It can be hard at times to walk the "faith walk" especially when Holy Spirit shows you what's to come forth and it does not appear to be anything at all looking like that but it may appear to be quite the opposite. Stay strong in the Lord for it is in His perfect time that either 1.) More will be revealed to you in the near future to get you to the next level of this journey or 2.) You are right on the cusp of stepping into this portion of the faith dream becoming reality. Now remember, faith comes by hearing and hearing of the word of God and with all give thanks to Him. He is the one that saw you before you were ever created in your mother's womb and the very gifts that are inside of you , He gave to you and saw what they are and the potential for you to fulfill what He called you to do in your life. What is the area of natural talent in your life? Do you make others laugh and feel good about them self when they are around you? Are you an excellent cook and people always are commenting (with sincere compliments that is, not that phony junk that they think you want to hear to get brownie points with you) about how you can even make boiled water taste yummy? Maybe you are a talented business person that can take a piece of dry, barren land so to speak and turn it into the most lush garden filled with productive life?  Maybe your gift lies in the ability to take any car and diagnose a problem and then repair it so it is working in top shape. What about the mom's and dad's out there that can just make anything all right for their children. You know make it feel better their boo boo by placing  a bandage on their cut knee and giving it that kiss and telling then it will be all better. That in inself is a true gift. I salute all the mom's and dad's out there that are willing to give up a sacrifice in their own life to stay with their children to make them the strong and lovely, yes I said lovely, generation that will take us to horizon's we may have only dreamed about in our life. I also salute those that may have never had children but know the value in a child's life and you may be an excellent mentor to a child in your lifetime or even more than one.
Let me share with you today the daily devotional for this date, January 15th. This excerpt come to you from, 365 Days of Spiritual Growth and Empowerment Connect with God Vol. II by Jentezen Franklin:

FAITH TRAINING
In Accordance with the measure of faith God has given you.
Romans 12:3 NIV

"When it comes to building muscle, how much weight you lift isn't nearly as important as how many repetitions you do. The more "reps," the stronger you become. So it is with your faith. When you face tough times and come through them, you develop the faith needed to handle even tougher times. You learn that since God brought you through that, He can also bring you through this.
It's necessary to experience both success and failure, for built into each is the ability to be stronger and wiser tomorrow. David destroyed Goliath because he'd "faith-trained" with a lion and a bear! He also refused to wear King Saul's armor, because he knew you can't use somebody else's workout regimen to kill your Goliath. David said, "I cannot go with these; for I have not proved them" (1Sa 17:39).
What you're going through right now is just equipping you to handle what God has for you in the future. It's been so that you can work on your training formula.
Have you ever noticed how some people can lose everything, yet a few years later they're back on top again? That's because they know the formula, and that's better than riches because the formula will work anywhere. If you can cook, you can cook anywhere. If you can sing, you can sing anywhere. Learn God's formula for your life. Use the situation you're in right now as a faith-training opportunity."
