Message from a friend

I have a wonderful friend that God has placed in my life who has been a GREAT ENCOURAGER!! I would like to share something she sent to me recently. Praise the Lord! for people in our life who will speak what God lays on their hearts.

I am leaving today on trip with three wonderful ladies from my church. We will be cruising the Bahamas as part of the trip. Will blog more when I return.

Love you all!!


I have to tell you something that has been made very clear to me before and after writing this last devotion.
GOD WANTS TO BLESS YOU, ANNALIE! I mean, REALLY bless you so you are very aware of it! I don't know what He's going to do for you, but He wants to bless you! And I have to say again---I wrote this in one devotion---the word "bless" in Psalm 5:12 means---"to honor and exalt; to invoke God's favor upon; to bestow prosperity; to endow, as with a gift; to make happy; to guard and protect."

This has been on my mind so much that I just have to tell you. And I'm very serious! This is not one of those "good things people say just to make a person feel good." I KNOW without a doubt that it is the Lord dealing with me to pray for Him to bless you. I'm praying that---and for your healing. HE WANTS TO BLESS YOU!

Knowing you is a blessing for me. I'm not trying to flatter you, etc., but I have to tell you---the Lord has really laid (or layed--I am never sure about those two verbs. Ha!) you on my heart to pray for Him to bless you and do exceeding abundantly above all I can ask or think for you! (Forgive all the repetition, please.)

I pray God will fulfill EVERY desire in your heart, Annalie! You are someone special to me!
Kathy

P.S. This is so strong in my heart that if I could give you the blessing, I would. But whatever it is He wants to do, only God can do it.
