#Quote 5: Under Grace (B. Johnson)
Under grace, I don't get a road map I get a tour guide, The Holy Spirit. He directs, and empowers me to do what the Word says.

Kingdom Mateship.
"It's better to have a friend than go it alone.
Share the work; share the wealth.
And if one falls down, the other helps.
But if there is no one to help, tough!
By yourself you're unprotected
with a friend you can face the worst!"
- Ecclesiastes 4:9-12 (The Message)
God does not only love us through Himself,
but He does so through others as well.
"Wherever you are, it is your friends who make your world.."
William James
He plants and positions people around us in every season,
for we are not meant to go on this journey [life] alone.
The kingdom connection is one that is centered by Him,
lifting us up in a heartfelt encouragement and prayer,
and cheering us on to finish the race that we are destined to run in.
When one has quality mateship,
one is already [internally] rich.
one is already [internally] rich.
"Without friends, no one would choose to live,
though he had all other goods."
though he had all other goods."
Aristotle
It is time to make [more] time and value for our treasured gems that He graciously blessed us with.
Get off the 'busy' mode.
Life* is not worth living,
if it is not meant to live with others, for others.
if it is not meant to live with others, for others.
(*Life = Living Intentionally For Everyone)
He blesses us not solely for our self enjoyment,
but rather to be shared and given to others.
This is why, we're blessed to be a [greater] blessing.

The power in praying and declaring!
"Prayer does not demand that we interrupt our work, but that we continue working as it if were a prayer."
Mother Teresa
"A day without prayer is a boast against God."
Rev Run
when we start to pray and declare,
it does wonders to not much of your situation first,
but rather your spirit [in the situation].
there is an inbuilt of new found Godly confidence,
which causes our hope and faith to rise.
even in the dark, there is still light.
it is like He is opening our spiritual eyes,
to see His wonders He has for us again.
and before we can hit amen,
He has already begun working on it.
my "Rebekah" is on her way;
He shall lead me straight to the door without hesitation,
and I shall know it is soley, completely, obviously, and totally from Him.
You will ever be exalted!
"Well, when I came this very day to the spring,I prayed, 'God, God of my master Abraham, make things turn out well in this task I've been given.
I had barely finished offering this prayer, when Rebekah arrived, her jug on her shoulder. She went to the spring and drew water and I said, 'Please, can I have a drink?'

"Well, when I came this very day to the spring,I prayed, 'God, God of my master Abraham, make things turn out well in this task I've been given.
I'm standing at this well. When a young woman comes here to draw water and I say to her, Please, give me a sip of water from your jug,
and she says, Not only will I give you a drink, I'll also water your camels—let that woman be the wife God has picked out for my master's son.'
I had barely finished offering this prayer, when Rebekah arrived, her jug on her shoulder. She went to the spring and drew water and I said, 'Please, can I have a drink?'
She didn't hesitate. She held out her jug and said, 'Drink; and when you're finished I'll also water your camels.' I drank, and she watered the camels.
I asked her, 'Whose daughter are you?' She said, 'The daughter of Bethuel whose parents were Nahor and Milcah.' I gave her a ring for her nose, bracelets for her arms, and bowed in worship to God.
I praised God, the God of my master Abraham who had led me straight to the door of my master's family to get a wife for his son.
"Now, tell me what you are going to do. If you plan to respond with a generous yes, tell me. But if not, tell me plainly so I can figure out what to do next."
Laban and Bethuel answered, "This is totally from God. We have no say in the matter, either yes or no.
"Now, tell me what you are going to do. If you plan to respond with a generous yes, tell me. But if not, tell me plainly so I can figure out what to do next."

Rebekah is yours: Take her and go; let her be the wife of your master's son, as God has made plain."

#Quote 2: With God in The Dark (Mary G. B.)
I would rather walk with God in the dark,
than go alone in the light.
Mary Gardiner Brainard
-----
Yes,
though I walk through the [deep, sunless] valley of the shadow of death,
though I walk through the [deep, sunless] valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear or dread no evil,
for You are with me;
Your rod [to protect] and Your staff [to guide],
they comfort me.
Psalm 23:4 (Amplified)

Blessed are those who wait..
It is never too late to wait on God.Waiting on God is not time wasted it is time gained*
JMa
We go according to His watch (timing) which only births forth beautiful things at His appointed season to blossom. (Ecc 3:11)
-----
God does not rush, He takes the time to do everything right -- everything.
Isaiah 30:18 (The Message)
And therefore the Lord [earnestly] waits [expecting, looking, and longing] to be gracious to you; and therefore He lifts Himself up, that He may have mercy on you and show loving-kindness to you. For the Lord is a God of justice.
Blessed (happy, fortunate, to be envied) are all those who [earnestly] wait for Him, who expect and look and long for Him [for His victory, His favor, His love, His peace, His joy, and His matchless, unbroken companionship].

For Everyday #1: Give Thanks!
Begin each day with a grateful heart!
It is about valuing especially in the smallest.
Once you give Him thanks in everything,
you then realize you are blessed to begin with.

Dreams not forgotten..
God can resurrect our broken dreams.
Once was dominant, now alive after a tasteful portion of one God breath.
"Just because it has not happened in the past,
does not mean it will not happen in the future."
Christine Caine
He has turned our disappointments to reappointments.
For what He has promised,
He is faithful to see it to past in completion.
How can He ever forget our desires,
since He is the one that puts it there in the first place?
because He is the one forever holding on to them.
In His time of fulfillment, we shall soon give birth.

Get in on the best!
To know the very heart of God,
is to simply just spend more time with the very man Himself!

but rather Christ Himself."
- Joel Houston

So what are you waiting for?
Get in on the best!
"Keep company with God.
Get in on the best."
