Take No Offense

Take the meds

Push it back…return to sender…

Every day, we have plenty of opportunities to be offended. We must choose NOT to take the bait.

That is, if we want great peace.

Of course we do.

So we’ve gotta let the offenses go and walk in unconditional love… #Forgive70x7

It’s not an easy road – but it’s worth it to unburden our souls and travel light.

After all, we’re just pilgrims passing through…

Blessings, Kayren

“Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.”

(Psalm 119:165)

“The discretion of a man deferreth his anger; and it is his glory to pass over a transgression.”

(Proverbs 19:11)

“And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me.”

(Matthew 11:6)

A Terrible Thing!

Posted by

0

Season created by prayer

It’s not what you think…

terrible (H3372) – yârêʼ, yaw-ray’; a primitive root; to fear; morally to revere; causatively to frighten:—affright, be (make) afraid, dread(-ful), (put in) fear(-ful, -fully, -ing), (be had in) reverence(-end), × see, terrible (act, -ness, thing).

👉🏽Can God do an awesome thing with you? 

Where everyone who sees will acknowledge His mighty power and reverence His unparalleled holiness?

If your answer is yes, we prepare by surrendering in prayer, praise, and worship.

Let’s gooooo…all for HIS glory!

Blessings, Kayren

“And he said, Behold, I make a covenant: before all thy people I will do marvels, such as have not been done in all the earth, nor in any nation: and all the people among which thou art shall see the work of the LORD: for it is a terrible thing that I will do with thee.”

(Exodus 34:10)

Love: An Action & A Choice

Posted by

Sacrifice required.

Sacrifice applied = rewarding.

Bewilderment inevitable.

Bewilderment addressed through God’s Word = reassuring. 

Joy baked into the process.

Joy experienced = fulfilling.

Jesus is our example of unconditional love – a requirement for successfully completing our assignment as mothers.🌟

Some days, we do better than others, but our goal must always be to partner with Him in the process, and to never think we’re able to unplug or disconnect from the Source and do it on our own. 🎁

Because we can’t. It wasn’t designed for us to be able to do it on our own.

Being a godly mother is a BIG job.💪🏽 With more than 2 decades of momming under my belt, I can say it’s one of the most significant jobs I’ve ever undertaken. When we show up in His presence daily for fellowship, refreshing, refilling, and guidance, He equips us with exactly what we need – a measure of HIS love.😇💓

Blessings to all who take on the BIG job of momming – and to those who are honoring mothers today…and EVERY day, Kayren 💞

“1 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,

2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.”

(Hebrews 12:1-2)

The Clean Room

Cleanse, forgive, heal

Cleansed, sanitized, sterile, & free of contaminants…

When God is conducting spiritual surgery, everybody can’t have access.

The room has been prepared for Him to move by His Spirit. 

Let it stay that way. Unsullied. #UNapologetic #iScribe4Him 💯 

Blessings, Kayren

“6 Behold, thou desirest truth in the inward parts: and in the hidden part thou shalt make me to know wisdom.

7 Purge me with hyssop, and I shall be clean: wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow.

8 Make me to hear joy and gladness; that the bones which thou hast broken may rejoice.

9 Hide thy face from my sins, and blot out all mine iniquities.

10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.”

(Psalm 51:6-10)

Limited Exposure Can Be Beneficial

Celebrate ephiphany!

Everybody shouldn’t have access to you in every season. At some point, it’s gotta be just you and God.

Not isolation, but insulation.

Not retaliation, but restoration.

Not rejecting others, but protecting the gift God has placed in your earthen vessel. 

Cuz some folk won’t see your value until – like an episode of Antiques Roadshow – it’s REVEALED TO THEM that they had a priceless item in their midst all along…#UNaware

So you may as well know your worth NOW. And live like it is so – because it already IS.

Blessings, Kayren

“6 For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.”

(II Corinthians 4:6-7)

Not ANOTHER Black Friday message!

Nope, no sales, pitches, or gimmicks – that’s NOT what this is. There’s nothing for you to click, like, forward, or grab before it’s gone…I promise! 

I’m not jumping into the hyped-up melee to promote one itty-bitty teeny-weeny li’l thing. Not a product, service, idea, whatchamacallit, doodad, thingamabob, or whoozeewhatzit. No matter how many I may have to offer…

I took today to UNPLUG…and it was DELIGHTFUL! No matter how many email messages are piling up in my inbox, I determined that I wasn’t going ANYWHERE to buy ANYTHING today. I am grateful to have enjoyed a blessed Thanksgiving holiday with those I love most – so what more could I ask for? What material item could I acquire (even if deeply discounted) that would add to the fluffy icing already on my cake as I chill out in my robe and fuzzy socks? Exactly.

I encourage you to take a moment to enjoy some REST before returning to your “regular” routine…I’m sure your mind, body, soul, and spirit will thank you for it! #PermissionGranted

In the midst of all that’s going on, I’m praying for peace, joy, love, and contentment to be yours during this holiday season…

Abundant blessings,

Kayren
