I have a Limp, but it want stop me.... And posted some other news!!

Genesis 32:28
And He said, your name shall be called no more Jacob but Israel; for you have contended and have power with GOD and with men and have prevailed.

Ok, do you know the story in Genesis 32:24-32 where Jacob wrestled with the angel of the LORD who touched the hollow of his thigh, and as result, he had a limp from that day forward.
Jacob might of walked away with a limp, BUT he limped away with his blessing.

Jacob was a man with weaknesses, but he pressed on with GOD; he was determined to get GOD's blessings. GOD wants us to have that kind of determination. Because of Jacob seeking and determined, GOD could be glorified in him.
GOD can get glory for Himself through those who will NOT let their personal weaknesses get in the way of GOD's work in and through them.
1st we have to face the fact we all have weaknesses, then 2nd we must determine not to let them bother us and limp on. Our imperfections are not going to stop GOD!! (unless we let them)!)


Something else to add, GOD will bless us even though all of us have a limp(imperfections,weaknesses). Remind yourself, GOD sees our hearts. If we have faith in Him and a heart that wants to do right, we have all we need to receive GOD's blessings.

LORD,
I have a lot of weaknesses, but I want to serve you and do your will, so you get all the glory. I don't want blessings. I just want a close relationship with you father. And I will limp away praising your Holy Name.
Amen.

On another note:
It's Friday and my wonderful husband starts his vacation today YAY! 11days off woot woot! The reason well for one he needs it and the other is his brother and sister inlaw are expecting their 1st baby any day now!! We are so excited - I don't know if you read my "about me" section but Jason and I can't have children so this little girl (yes it is a girl!) is Heaven sent to us. We can spoil her and love her and she can love us back b/c we are uncle Jason and aunt Kelly..lol  Plus like Jason said "that's *insert last name* blood running through that kids veins." And he is hoping that him and his brother will become closer - I mean they are close but Jason would like them to be closer. and I would not mind getting closer to my sister inlaw - it would be cool to have a relationship with her like she was another sister to me. But what I am trying to get at we are all super excited and anxious, I know they really are. They(I am not going to put their names they might not like that) are going to wonderful parents and raise this precious girl in a GOD fearing home. But we all can use prayer so I am praying for and I request y'all please pray for them too, I know and heard it is hard raising a kid in the world today. Also please pray for mom and baby that they will have a safe and healthy labor and delivery, and that GOD will wrap his loving arms around both of them and keep them safe and healthy. This little girl weighting in at almost 9lbs (woo momma) so please pray for them. We ALL are so excited to meet the gift from GOD!!
Enjoy your weekend!


In His Name
GOD bless you and yours.......
