This week's prompt is:
AWAKE!
Awake Awake! He tells me...rise from you stupor! Clothe yourself in strength! (Isaiah 52:1)
This is a new year...a new beginning...a new chance to be a light that shines in the darkness!
Put on your armour, polish up your weaponry
Expand your boundaries...reach out...
Be my eyes and my ears, my hands and my feet...
Show love and compassion to all that you meet
Do not be afraid...for I am with you always
There is no passivity in building a kingdom
You must be bold, you must be brave, you must be strong
I am your strength and your shield...I am your consoler
Surrender your fears to me and AWAKE...make a joyful noise...
Awaken all friends and neighbours to my love
Awaken all strangers to my love
Share the peace, the joy, the love
My people are hungry and they thirst.. who shall feed them?
I am AWAKE Lord... here I am... I come to do your will!
STOP
My friends, next week, this here little blog will celebrate its first anniversary. I humbly request your prayers as I seek God's guidance on where He wants to take me and 'This Little Light of Mine' As you can see above, I sense Him asking me to expand my boundaries...just how I'm not sure. Its a little bit daunting and the balancing act is a test in itself, but as always, I must be obedient. I appreciate your prayers. Thank you!

Stopping by for the first time! Love your thoughts- especially the line "there is no passivity in building a kingdom". Privileged to be part of this kingdom building by your side!!!
Thanx for your great idea to feature the song "A cry from the heart" on your Blog. Please do so and also send it to family and friends. If everyone features it once on their Blogs it would soon get noticed.
God bless you.
Hi Lisa Maria, found your blog while hopping along Five Minute Friday. I can relate to so much you have written. I pray that you're able to hear the voice of God with clarity has you seek his direction for your blog.
Happy New Year, Lisa Maria. Looking forward to seeing what new directions and changes the Lord brings about for you!
Blessings, e-Mom
Lisa Maria, you always have an encouraging word for me...and I thank you! I'm reading and loving a devotional book this year. It's called Jesus Calling by Sarah Young. I think you'd enjoy it too! Blessings!
