Fan the Flame

This is referring to the gift that is within you. We each have been placed unique gifts inside of us that need to be used in the earth.

We have to take action to keep it alive because there is always opposition coming to shut it down and quiet that voice.

I have had to go to great lengths to fight for my voice being heard and I can’t say that it has been fully accomplished yet. I haven’t quite found the correct delivery of what I’m trying to present to people.

Life experiences help me out and I may grab ahold of it for a bit but it can be fleeting. My main thing is to make it a point that we cannot always listen to human beings for direction we have to be tapped into a higher being which is God to me.

The thing that taints what I am saying is religion. Religion has given God a bad rap. It’s represented Him so differently than He really is. It’s one of the things that has shut my mouth more than anything else.

I have to be very cautious to stay in contact with my God and not get in the wrong lane. Strong opinions and controlling attitudes can flood over that still small voice like an avalanche.

Lately I’ve been very blessed to have some people in my path that have been able to latch on to what I’m saying because they are not indoctrinated so strongly.

We know a tree by it’s fruit. If someone does not help produce good fruit in our life they are not the tree that we need to sit under.

We really need relationship with someone before they can speak truth into our lives. I took a personality test one time and a slogan that goes along with my personality is:

Yep that’s me and my personality and the way my Heavenly Father created me! He has given me the ability to believe in people that no one else can believe in. With My God Nothing is impossible! Nothing! I have lived it!

You tell me that someone is beyond repair and I will do everything I can to help them make it happen. I have had to learn through much trial and error that we cannot help someone that is determined to stay the same! We have to let go!

I will keep fanning the flame to keep my voice being heard! That means that I have to fight to be heard! That might mean that you need to fight to be heard too!

Keep on keeping on!

With God you’ve got this!

Let us know if we can help!

If no one else has told you they love you today “I Love you!”

Vision for 2020

Wow this year has been a roller coaster ride in some ways! As lots of you know, January sparks off a new vision for the year for me and many of my friends as we get together and design our Vision Boards for the year.

This year started looking a little crazy and seemed like the dreams and visions may not come to pass.

I looked back the other day at some of my dreams, goals, and vision for the year and I saw something pretty comical! I had put a three seat vehicle on there to be able to haul grandkids, with plenty of room with low miles.

Marty went down to Nashville, Tennessee the 2nd week in March and found us a nice Tahoe that was very pretty and drove wonderfully.

We drove it about a month and then things started going wrong with it. Marty and friends started working on it in every way that they could and we kept thinking it was fixed, but no it wasn’t. I started thinking, “What happened to my vision.” Finally we heard that the engine was burnt up and it’d be way high to fix so we talked to the place in Nashville and they said we could trade it back in for a different vehicle.

We traded it in for a just like brand new, but used, Honda Odyssey. It drove home so nice and felt like home. We drove it about thirty days and all of a sudden it konked completely out and we were told that it needed a new engine! What? What happened to my three seat vehicle?

We went through several different things this time also and finally I looked back and my vision said, “Three seat vehicle with low miles.” Neither of the vehicles had low miles and the second one does now. We got a low mile engine put in and the auto place in Nashville sent us a check for the price of the engine.

Our Father is interested in EVERY single detail of our life! There have been many things that have come to pass and amazingly better than I could have even imagined!

It’s never a time to get discouraged or worried because as He says,

Sometimes it can get so far from seeming like it’s going to happen that we can give up hope. It is never a time to worry or give up hope! Every single time God works it out right on time-every time. Not just sometimes but every time!

Some of the things that I put on my vision board, I had no idea how they could happen, are happening! I will share more about those too!

Keep up the FAITH!

Faith makes it happen!

Never give up, even in impossible odds!

You got this!

If you need help, I will help you!💜
