"I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately. I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life;
to put to rout all that was not life and not when I had come to die, discover that I had not lived." ~Henry David Thoreau

He Knows Me

The last eighteen hours have been a roller coaster for me. I won't go into specifics, but I will say that I've had some eye opening experiences. Yesterday, of all days, when I was having a pitty party and wanting to be a kid again, something happened that helped me see that the Lord is very mindful of me. Just think of it. The Lord we worship, the same one who created the universe, knows me by name. I know He does. Right now I feel a burst of empowerment that I haven't felt in a long time. I feel sick and very tired and plain worn out, but at the same time I feel like I could move a mountain. I'm thankful that I'm able to feel Heavenly Father's love in such a capacity.

7 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
9 Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone?
10 Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent?
11 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?

Matthew 7:7-11

I love those verses. He knows us and wants to bless us. Hang on to that feeling of the Spirit. May it carry you through.
