What did Jesus think of his Mother?
What does the sight of birds eggs mean to you?
If you woke up this morning to find your best friend had died and you forgot to tell her/him how much you love him/her the last time you saw them, what would you feel? Would you continue that same lifestyle?
If a bee was in your presence, would you run? It is one of God's creatures He has given us power over....why run?
Just thots......enjoy the journey......... LOL

What do you think would happen in your life if God suddenly took away everything that you worked so hard to achieve? What if it was His will? What would you do? Think about that, it may happen to you......soon.
There are some questions I asked myself this week as I prepared my thoughts to close out 2011 and enter into 2012.
I choose my life to be defined by what God will do in me and with me next! That sounds scary huh... lol
Well my questions this week amount to:
Jesus, I know you are fully God, fully man and Holy Spirit of God directs your path at all times. So, Jesus, what do you want from me now?
-
His word teaches us to be instant in season...we can flow if we know. the same Spirit that is in God.......IS in me! I want to allow you to flow through me fully, how?
-
What can I do to build your kingdom today?
-
Show me the person you want me to speak to or pray for.
-
You have given me many spiritual gifts, which one do you wnat to use today?
In asking all these questions, one might say.........'gee, that's alot'. Maybe, but at the price He paid, what less could I do?
My cry is to give Him glory and honor as long as I live...........
Come with me on this journey.

When God dosn't make sense; He's right! This is not what we want to hear today. We want to have all the 'feel' good feelings about God. But He is a holy God, a God that imparts and takes away. He is God that is all powerful, all knowing and all being..............are you ready in 2012 for what He will do in y our life?
Honestly, I'm saying "YES, I'm ready, but actually it scares me to death. He is holy and can do whatever He wants with me. His will is my desire..........that leaves me, 'Kathleen' out of the picture..........what will that look like?
He has already required me to destroy all the book, yet un published, all the seminars I've created, all the speeches I've done and would do. Not only tossed in the trash, but deleted from my computer files then I had to empty the recycle box.
Oh, awesome, fearless God, what more do you want?
Do you get the picture? He wants it all. Not just what we want to give up. ALL!
Will you? Can you? Would you? If not, why not?

When God asks us to "Come up here!", what do we do? I must assume that some of us run, others stand still, others sit and do nothing and others.....well, they persue. When in persuit self begins to fall off. This is painful. After all we held 'self' for many years and letting go is not simple. Why? Well, there is the ego, self-deniael, pride, self indulgence and just plain self.
Recently God asked me to "Come up higher". I replied, "Yes, God, how?" When He showed me, I fell apart. He wanted 'all' of me. That included me, my time, my thoughts, my talents, my ways, my thoughts, my dreams, my desires, my..........all of me. Little did I know that it meant just that! ALL of me.
So after some kicking, screaming, crying, yelling, and getting mad at my God. I surendered. You will have to keep tuned in to see what it all meant.........
Blessings to you. When He asks you to "Come up higher." Go...........
In persuit of love we find much sin. When we desire to be accepted a pit is dug. When search for more is the desire of our heart the blood is drained.So, persue love anyway. The outcome is your desired result. LIFE~ that more abundantly! Christ is then glorified.
