His Glory

I had the opportunity to walk the grounds of one of the most beautiful oldest colleges in the Midwest. Voted #1 best value liberal art college in the nation. With students from 26 countries, with a variety of faith backgrounds. 125 years of history within the walls. Thousand of prayers. As I walk inside the old church, feeling and letting my imagination run, I could hear the hymns sung. The many messages preach over the pulpit. Many lives were changed because of their dedication and submission to God. Their willingness to let go of self so they could find God's purpose for their life and the reason they were created for. Going after their destiny. Running after God. Available, faithful, and teachable. I would love to be a fly on the wall so I could experience what they experienced. As I continue to move up the stairs every step is bringing me closer to a new revelation. I come across hundreds of volumes on church history. Walls full of books. Years of history in each book. Each step brings me closer to what awaits me at the end of the room. As I walked by I noticed the big church organ. A small desk with the college information. Wing chair sits by the window. I feel peace in the room. I stood there for what looked like an eternity, not wanting to move. Reluctantly I made it down the stairs. Just to come up once again. I wanted to take pictures of the precious room up the stairs. Something special with the small room. To capture the moment it that was possible. This time I bring my daughter and my phone. I wanted the picture of me sitting by the window. My daughter took some shoots and we left. Sometime later as I am going over the pictures I notice the light coming out of one of the pictures of me sitting by the window. Then I realize that thanks to technology we were able to have a glimpse of heaven, the rays of glory, His presence was tangible and we captured. This is the 2nd time in the last few months that I am able to capture glimpses of heavens. If we are willing to press on. If we yield to His presence. If we search for more of him. If we thirst and hunger for more of him. We be able to find him. For his presence filled the room. The light of heavens came down and dwell among us. His presence was felt and he allowed me to fill it too. I don't know about you but when we look for him with all our heart, mind and soul, he will not disappoint us. For he will meet us there. I saw the old church, I went inside looking for Him and I found him. For he waited for me sitting by the window, overlooking the Mississippi River below. Our Lord and Saviour is calling. He is willing to meet with you at the most unexpected times. Don't allow distractions to move you. Don't allow what is taking place around us to rob us of having intimacy with the Lord. I am on vacation. I didn't have plans for an encounter, But The Lord gifted me with his peace, his presence, and his love. Ivette Diaz-Yee July 2023 Principia College Elsah, Illinois

❤️ By God

 Sisters ❤️By God 

Was birth a few years ago. I posted my 1st article, on Facebook in 2018.

  It's a place where I had learned and continued learning, and in order to grow spirituality; I had to share what I received. My revelations may be the stepping stone someone may need to catapult it forward. 

English is not my 1st language; it may take me longer to share and express myself. But how I am going to share our story? How the message can be shared? 

By taking the 1 step. I am nervous. I am scared, but I will do it anyway. For too long, I had this idea to create a blog and I had let, fear and insecurities hold me back. Today The Lord had given me a platform in which I will stand and proclaim the wonders that He had done in my life, and family.  Believe me, I had tried to run away, procrastinate, and derail to do another project, to end up always writing my experiences. But if I don't bring it out. They will be words written on the page, taking room and collecting dust. 

Every word is an experience, a season and a trajectory on my faith walk. It has shaped me into the person that I am today. 

So relax and enjoy, God is not done with you. He did it for me, He would do it for you too. 

“I am to help my sister until the Lord gives them rest, as He has done for me, and until they too have taken possession of the land The Lord your God is given them” Joshua 1:14

Help Her With Her Laundry

 Help Her with Her Laundry 

Because we know what the word  means, we know the One who breathes the word onto existence. The devil knows the word and he uses it against us.  He brings part of it for his benefit. Partial hearing or selective hearing. People want to hear what they want, what’s convenience.

We are so caught up in ourselves , That is difficult to see clear; our vision of truths is fog with our own perceptions to even hear correctly. The  enemy enhances what he wants us to concentrate on. He twists our motives and uses our own emotions against us.  

 But God Patiently  helps us, directing us and waiting for our yes;  Allowing our self to self medicate and self diagnose what we may think we have. Trying to make sense where there is not sense, because they are undiscerned.  

Without getting deep in to the root of the problem, we dance around the issues we carry and made us who we are today. We make excuses for our behavior and personality, unwilling to see because it’s to  painful or subconsciously we have forgotten about it. In the midst of all we go  through life shifting blame.  Unable to look deep inside self. 

But God in his merciful love for us, he doesn’t leave us there. Alone and raw. He brings his word to us. He brings unqualified people to hold you up prayer. 

As we allowed him and give him permission ( the lord won’t push himself towards us) he starts going deep in self and show us glimpse of areas that need to be addressed, work on and face on. 

Maturity is a long time process and we are all in a process.  God is always ready for us.  So we could grow in the grace and knowledge of Him ( 2 Peter 3:18) 

People want to hear the good things over the real thing. They want to hear what tickle their ears.  

Don’t allow people to change who you are. Only God has that power to bring forth the change need it in you.  We can’t change them or make their walk easy. Short cuts are always the long way around. 

God didn’t create you to fit in but to stand out. People is not going to like what I have to said. But I know I would be standing in front of God to give an account for every word spoken , written or text. I’m not here to please man but to please God who knows the heart man.
