I Layed It At The Cross...

Have you ever went to Jesus, and layed your burden at the cross? I was having dinner with a friend on Monday, she is a great women of God. We were having an interesting conversation, It was about issues that we had layed at the cross, and how the enemy tries to reopen old wounds, hurt, unforgiveness and so on... It is a daily struggle for many people. The good news is, we can overcome these feelings by faith and trusting our heavenly Father. when you make the decision to lay your burdens down, it means that you no longer are going to rely on self, but rely on God. And when the enemy comes in, and tries to poke at you, you simply say No, I have layed that down at the cross!!

What is your take on this? Will you trust in God, and lay your burden down?

I Want To Be Like You

I took my oldest daughter shopping this Saturday, her dad gave her some Birthday money. Of all the things that she could have bought, she came out of the store with the same perfume that I wear. To be honest, I really wasn't liking the Idea. I told her, we couldn't be wearing the same perfume, that it was more for grown ups, and she looked at me and said, Mommy It smells so good, and I want to be just like you. It brought a huge smile to my face, and filled my heart with joy. I am truly blessed, to have such a wonderful daughter.
