I pray to the Almighty that He may look over this nation. May He look over all those that come across this post. May He watch over them and draw them closer to Him. Thank you for never leaving my side. Thank you for guiding me in the darkness. Thank you for allowing me to wake up this morning, for my food and everything you bestow on me. For all good times gongs come from you I would be nothing without you. May this night bring peace to all that seek it from You. May their prayers be answered according to Your Will. Let me be able to rest for I am not feeling well. Let Your Almighty hand heal me from whatever this may be but only if it is Your Will. I put myself at Your feet and Your Mercy. I ask all this not by merits or anything I can do but in the Name of Jesus Christ my Lord and Saviour. Amen. šš¼

Thatās why
Is there an age or year of your life you would re-live?
Iām at the age where I realize I am grateful for the life I have lived. It wasnāt what I set out in my life. Many things happened that took me off the path I wanted to be on. But ultimately it was God that made this path I walk on. For His Will and His Purpose I walk it willingly. I donāt know why but His Purpose is what I live for. So no there is no age or year of my life I would re-live.
Everything happens for a reason learning to accept that is hard. But knowing the path you walk is with God makes it much easier to walk.
Jesus take the wheel
Taking time away
Itās been a busy week for me. Yesterday I felt like complete crap due to the migraine that took a hold of my brain. I went to bed at 9 pm just to see if I could get rid of it. Thank God I woke up without it this morning.
So on this Sabbath I am enjoying time with the family and in the Peace of the Presence of the Creator. Taking time each week to spend time in reflection or even just in the Presence of God has really helped me. I canāt explain it as much as I can tell you all to try it. It really does change your perspective.
Have a great day. ~Emma~
Birthday
My birthday was the other day and it got me thinking. I am incredibly grateful for each and every single day I wake up. I know everyone doesnāt get to do the things that they have or that I have. I know some people donāt have the people that they have in their lives and I am extremely lucky to still have my parents and my family involved in my life.
I think after a certain age, you stop actually counting as you go up, but you are incredibly more blessed and thankful. You concentrate more on the things that you do have and not the things that you donāt have.
You think of all the ways that you have survived, the battles that you fought and still walked away. With scars and sweat and blood dripping down, it made no difference because you still walked away stronger.
Life is too short to be anything but happy and filled with gratitude. Just because you donāt think God exists or is working in your life doesnāt mean that he isnāt. God is always working in your life. God is always blessing you sometimes itās just not the way that you expect things to be. So as I go to another year, hopefully with Godās blessing. I hope Iām able to do all the things that I wanna do and all the things he wants me to do. I want to show him as my greatest joy in my life because God has always and will always be my greatest love
I canāt do anything if God doesnāt give me the strength the will and the power to do it. I owe all of the blessings I have to my Lord and Savior. So as I reflect on the year that has passed and the year thatās coming I hope and pray that this be the year that God grant me the one thing Iām asking for. But either which way my life is in his hand and itās all in his timing. ~~always, Emma~~
ļæ¼ Christ is King ļæ¼
Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior. He has given me, joy. He has led me through the pain. Through my darkest night and times in my life, he led me to the light. As we reflect on this Good Friday, the sacrifice that Jesus Christ did. He bore our sins so that we may have a chance at eternal life. I ask you is something missing in your life? If it is, I ask you to turn to Jesus. Jesus is the way he is the king. He is salvation. I ask you to turn to Jesus and accept the gift that he has given to you. Have a wonderful, beautiful blessed night. He is risen.
Thank God
Thank you God for waking me up this morning. Thank you for the new day with endless possibilities. Thank you for being there for me. Thank you for everything You have bestowed upon me. I am not worthy of you, All Praise to You my Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
Liberation day ļæ¼
Today was the Inauguration of President Trump. After four years under the Biden administration it finally feels good to be free from him. This isnāt about being a Republican or Democrat it was about being American. I was so tired of trying to explain why I am proud being American.
People from every nation are proud of their homeland, this is my homeland. I am not embarrassed where I come from nor should I be. People are taught to hate themselves for what? I can never understand why you would listen to anyone tell you to hate yourself.
As a person that suffered a devastating severe depression that left me in a mind prison for 10 years. When I was finally freed, thanks to God, it took me forever to feel like myself. As I grow each day not looking back at the past, I learn to be more comfortable in myself.
So again why would I listen to anyone that tells me I need to hate myself. Not only hate myself but also I need to fit in the boxes they decided to make. No thank you, I like being myself. I donāt need to fit into the box you have created for me to live in.
As a Christian I love everyone but I donāt need to be around everyone, nor do I have to accept everyone. Just like everyone doesnāt have to love me or accept me. Itās God I follow, itās God that I have to answer to, itās God who saved me from the darkness and it was God that saved Trump.
Was it to save the United States from the insanity it was going through, I do believe that. Regardless of how, Trump was saved to be used by God, that was His plan.
In the end I am just absolutely happy the madness of 100 genders, offending people by just being myself is done. So for me today isnāt just another Inauguration Day, for me itās a day to celebrate my country. I may have ancestors from Spain but my country is America, my blood is American and my heart is for America.
So to all my fellow patriots I hope you have a beautiful night celebrating winning our country back. Make America Great Again!
Christmas Time
During the Christmas season itās always nice to spend time with the family. Itās also important to remember that we donāt live forever not on this earth. Our time is limited and we never know when our time will come to an end. So this Christmas while spending time with family put down your phone and live in the moment.
Whether itās watching your favorite movies, eating your favorite foods, dancing your favorite songs, playing your favorite games or even just sitting around chatting with your loved ones. Never forget your time wonāt last and neither will the time your loved ones have, so live in the moment with them.
Jesus Christ came to die so that we all may have a chance to be saved by His Grace. So while thinking Christmas might be all about the gifts you get, two gifts you canāt buy. Number 1- time, 2- Godās Grace. They are both a gift that cost nothing but cost everything. They are free yet come at a high cost. Might sound contradictory but it is the truth.
So while spending the time with the people you love remember Jesus came for all of us. He died to save us all. Life will move forward and time forgives no one. So cherish each moment and know that tomorrow may never come. So embrace the love and grace Jesus Christ has given you.
I do hope you all have a wonderful Christmas, filled with love and joy. Remember Jesus Christ is the reason for this season. ~Emma~
When you used toā¦
I asked last year around September for guidance from God. My prayer is what one of the books I read would be called ādangerous prayersā.
Itās not dangerous prayers that cause any danger. But itās more along the line praying for something and not knowing how much time it will take or what you will lose in the process. Learning that itās not going to be given in your time nor the way you want it.
A lot of Christians donāt really believe in dangerous prayers I am one of the ones that has seen dangerous prayers answered over and over again..
Again, dangerous prayers are not causing danger or even asking for some sort of dangerous activity to happen. I guess you can say itās more of be careful what youāre praying for because you might actually get what you prayed for.
So like I said last September 2023 I prayed for God to guide me closer to him no matter what. In the prayer, I asked God if there is anything in my life that is distracting me or pulling me away from you I want it removed. I donāt care what I lose or the pain caused I want to be closer to You oh Lord.
So a couple months go by and I started seeing people that I was close to just kind of like disappear. So it started with a person I was close to. We spoke daily a lot and as time went on, I started to see a shift and at first I wanted to ignore it pretend like thatās not whatās going on, but then I started to see the distance and it was clear.
After we stop speaking and months went by earlier this year, I started to realize it was God pulling that person out of my life. The reason that God pulled that person out of my life was because that person was a distraction. Someone might say that thatās cruel to say. But for me, my goal has always been to get closer to God. My life mission has always been to be one of Godās Warriors.
So here we are in November 2024, a year has passed and I havenāt spoken to this person in a good 10 or 11 months. Do I miss the person? Yeah sometimes. But I have also learned to mourn the relationship and move on.
Just today another thing that I loved doing became meh. I wasnāt excited I wasnāt thrilled to be doing it. I just felt nothing. One must be prepared that when you ask for something and you ask obstacles or anything to be removed, they will be removed. Your love for them will be taken away. Your desire to be filled with them will be destroyed if thatās what you asked for.
There are other things that have changed. My love for a lot of things have changed. I spend more time in prayer, more time writing, more time in self-reflection, learning more about myself, and learning to grow from my past mistakes.
It is in this waiting season that I have learned that God has stripped away a lot of distractions from my life. Things that I held onto that I didnāt even think were distractions, but they were. They were distractions from me, developing a relationship with God and for me developing into a better individual for myself, for my family, for society, and for God.
It is in this waiting season that I have learned to let go of things that donāt matter. I have learned to forgive those that hurt me in the past. I have learned that the most important thing in life is to cherish each and every single moment you are alive.
I have learned to embrace each and every single moment. Whether itās spending a Sunday cleaning with my niece, nephew, my sister, my mom, my dad and my brother, in the garage hanging up Christmas lights. Whether itās spending Sabbath with my family and drinking cappuccinos with the new Nespresso machine. Itās in those little moments that weāre making memories that will last a lifetime. Itās in those moments that we are truly living life.
I donāt know what tomorrow might bring but I definitely know. I trust God to bring me through tomorrow.
So has God answered my dangerous prayer? The answer to that is yes and no. He is definitely answering the prayer. I just havenāt gotten to the end yet.
I did ask for more than just becoming closer to God. That was my main prayer and still my main objective. But thereās one little part of that prayer that Iām waiting for. I have constantly waited, and God has referred to this moment as the waiting season.
Sometimes we become impatient during the waiting season, but we have to remember that when you ask for something from God heās going to deliver. Whether itās through a dangerous prayer like I said before or just a prayer he will answer.
I know a lot of people donāt believe in dangerous prayers. But I can tell you based on my own history dangerous prayers are real just be careful and be ready for the consequences of asking such prayers. Itās all about trust baby. Itās all about trust and having faith in Jesus Christ to answer your prayer.
Remember, God always answers in his time not our own. ļæ¼
I hope this is a lesson for you to learn and I hope you have a wonderful, beautiful blessed week. Love always, Emma. ļæ¼
