Hello Ladies
I know that I have not put anything on the blog for a while.
Summer is just so different.
Here is my challenge to you. Read Revelation.
It says in Rev. 1:3 that you will be blessed if you read this prophecy. Sooooo if you want to be blessed this week, read Rev. It also says that you will be blessed if you listen to it read. Get a friend (or husband) and read it together.
Do not be afraid of it. It is a great book and you will find a lot of golden nuggets in that book!
Have a great summer ladies!
Growing to be Christ like living for Him wholeheartedly one girlfriend at a time!
Our desire is to become more like Christ and serve him wholeheartedly one girlfriend at a time!

Our Lord is a Strong Tower
A Strong Tower
Proverbs 18:10 says The name of the Lord is my Stong tower the righteous run into it and they are saved.
This verse is talking how God being strong and mighty, and he saves all that comes into him. It is also a verse that should be shouted by us in battle. It is a declaration and exclamation that if we call on the name of our God, he will save us.
How many of you know what I am talking about? The enemy had you covered on every side. There was no way out, but you called on the Lord and he placed a hedge of protection round and about you. God put up a fortified tower right in the midst of the enemy's camp, and told you to rest easy you are safe. Let take a closer look. Well we know that the definition of strong is having great physical strength and a tower is a extremely tall building. Their is no one stronger than Our God. He is taller than any situation that we may be facing and in God we find protection from our enemies. The righteous run into it and they are saved. We are the righteous - now don't get it twisted! Its not anything that we have done that made us righteous. The bible says our righteousness is as filthy rags unto God, but he considers us righteous because we are covered by the blood of the Righteous One God's son Jesus the Christ. We run and not walk because we believe that once we are inside we are indeed safe.
Are you running into that tower today? Are you seeking to be saved by the Master today? Are you looking to be rescued from some traps someone set for you? Does the enemy have you surrounded on every side? I want you to know that there is a Savior that has made an escape for you today. His name is Jesus! Call on him if you are seeking salvation and you will be saved. Call on his name if you are in bondage and you need to be freed. Call on the name of Jesus if you are surrounded, and watch how your enemies may have come in one direction to attack you, but he will flee in seven directions frantically. Call on the name of Jesus today and be saved.
What is a Strong Tower? A tower is not a modern day skyscraper or any tall building. A Strong tower is a place of safe refuge. It fights more enemies in its range, it causes more damage to the enemies, and can take more damage than the normal watch tower. A strong tower has large areas to sleep large amounts of men, and can hold and store a large amount of food. Its huge and heavily fortified. They are built of thick stone blocks and they are tough.
Now the spiritual similarities: Strong towers have thick stone blocks and are enormous. Our God is a rock, He is our fortress, Our stronghold. In fact in Psalm 61:3, David says of the Lord been his refuge and strong tower against the foe. How true. Our God is so huge. In Jeremiah 23:24 our Lord declares He fills the Heavens and the Earth. That's how big our God is. He fills it ALL. No situation is too Big for him. Luke 1:37 says ' For with God all things are possible'

Girlfriends this is why we are here for each other!
Moses' arms soon became so tired he could no longer hold them up. So Aaron and Hur found a stone for him to sit on. Then they stood on each side of Moses, holding up his hands. So his hands held steady until sunset."
Exodus 17:12
Yes this is why God made girlfriends! He knew we needed each other so much.
I love you all because God loves me!
Thanks for always being there for each other. I see you all ministering to each other

Have you ever said this?????? “I have three kids, but sometimes it feels like thirty-three! They even follow me into the bathroom! Everybody needs me!”
Did you ever think that Jesus understands all your feelings even this one? Jesus can relate to the busyness women feel today. In Mark 1 we read about a day in the life of our Lord. First, He taught in the synagogue. Then He cast out a demon. Then He healed the mother-in-law of a friend. A full day to say the least! Then later that evening, He didn’t even get a break. The Scripture says in the evening that the whole town gathered at His door, and He healed the sick.
So how did Jesus keep that kind of pace? Well, listen to what He did the following morning:
“Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where He prayed ” (Mark 1:35). Hmmm. I think he just showed us how to handle the pressure of our busy days.
Don't for get Jesus LOVES YOU and loved to meet with you each day!
