Then the Lord Your God will make you most prosperous in all the work of your hands and in the fruit of your womb, the young of your livestock and the crops of your land. The Lord will again delight in you and make you prosperous, just as He delighted in your fathers, if you obey the Lord your God and keep His commands and decrees that are written in this Book of the Law and turn to the Lord Your God with all your heart and with all your soul. Deuteronomy 30:9-10
Personal reflections: Powerful words.... A powerful promise!
When you read the words above, it's pretty simple. Really, it is.
If it's simple, why is it so difficult for me to live these words out when I know what blessing God will bring to my life in doing so?
All I've got to do is..........
Why can't I just do this? Why do I struggle and fall short of doing what the Lord asks of me? How do I live on the earth daily, but commit ALL of my heart and my soul to the Lord? Plenty of people appear to be able to do this, but............
The good news is the Lord knows my struggles. He knows my weaknesses. He knows my heart. He knows every fiber of my being and He loves me. Oh, how He loves me. And, in the course of this messy life I live, He does bless the work of my hands and all the rest in the verses above - but there is still heartache, loss, disappointment at times; even when it seems these things are stronger than joy, victory and prosperity.
Lately though, God is revealing to me that what may need adjustment in my life is my VISION; how I'm looking at my life, my journey and the world around me. Perhaps I'm seeing a blurrier view of my life and journey and it's clear to God. Maybe I'm focusing on certain things (negatives) instead of the others that are there too (positives). So thankful a blog friend of mine stopped by to visit my blog today and left good words to chew on in my BREATH post. Cleaning my glasses and removing the veil in front of my eyes may be just what I needed, as I continue to turn to the Lord my God with ALL my heart and with ALL my soul. I am likely to see something very different indeed!
Blessings to you, dear reader... May you know the joy of the Lord, who is your strength.

Thanks To God Almighty for using Doctor Razor's Quick cure for herpes to eradicate my herpes Simplex Virus...I got diagnosed with Herpes On August 19, 2015 and it resulted in a cluster of painful ulcers and many problems while urinating.. My situation almost caused me my marriage because my husband was having pressure coping with his work and my situation.. One morning, I read a testimony on a blog page online, of a natural cure from a Herbalist named Dr Razor who cured a 50 years old retired US Army official and he is now healed from dementia.. I immediately contacted him and I told him of my herpes, he encouraged me not to give up. I administered the natural Healing medication he sent to me and a few weeks later I went to the hospital for a check up and the result was clear.. It's been 4 years now and I am proud to let you know that I am still healthy and living happily with my husband and my 3 kids after the healing. I felt it best that I let you know that if you contact Doctor Razor through his email drrazorherbalhome@gmail.com , you can have a second chance of living again,because he will give you good results..
