RSS SubscribeI am so excited about preaching this Series Carnivorous (starting sunday july 20th). My stomach is flipping because I am just being blown away with revelation from heaven. I know that this series is going to revolutionize lifeconnectionchurch.net. I have not been this excited about Jesus in along time!!! He is so amazing and I can not put into words how good his words are. You better do all you can to get there this sunday morning at 10:15 am and come ready.
I just have to shout it from the blog posts. I love Jesus, I can do nothing without Him, and He is my life!!!

We’re there!! We have been there these past few Sundays. And much the same. The first Sunday I heard God tell me I am His princess and child, NOT a consumer in the market. That, for me, was huge! Then yesterday, MAN, I was hit again. It seems as if I have totally missed the mark for so long. I just never saw it this way. The past few Sundays have been very powerful to me. You see, I have been in other churches where I sat condemned, ritticuled or looked down upon and sometimes completely looked thru as if invisible. At one point in time, I quit ‘church’ and read in proverbs alone. DId that for over a year. And I am a wife and a Mom. It was horribly lonely. I don’t have that here.And I THANK YOU for that. I think about what it means to be a piece of raw iron before becoming a sharp knife that can be used as a tool. The process is harsh. To say the least. I have endured trials that are even hard to tell. ANd mostly thats what I hear ‘my story is just too hard to hear’ so I do not share much. But… I tell ya, God has put a ministry there. But where? In a book? On the street? In a church? In my closet? I don’t know. In that area I am so very lost. I don’t really fit into the norm and work hasn’t been a career. I go from one to the other. Something ALWAYS comes up. I wonder, is it me? Or is there something to it? Guess this really is more than just a question. I just am at a loss for how else to put it all in words.

Hi Janey, I can certainly relate to you on many of the points that you shared about your life. The thing that sticks out and that I have been asking God for is to use me. But how I ask? Like you, Im like in my closet….ha! My work history has been where I am trying to find my niche in a particular place and then something comes up. This in itself has been a challenge for me as a single mother. I am wondering “Is it me” I have asked God to show me me search me and uncover anything about me that He cannot use or is not right before Him. It feels like I’m trying but I am always defeated. Maybe in my defeat He is stronger and I just don’t know it who knows that has not been shown to me. I am just remaining…though…He has told me to remain through the trials and it is hard but I have support from my church family here at Life Connection and staying connected to my leader, Paula and going to group. This is the first time I understand anything about church or the heart of Jesus and I love Him now for real not superficially and in ignorance. I would say; be encouraged you posting your blog was just a ministry to me! I am also reminded of scripture James 1:1 Where the testing of your faith should be glorified because it brings about maturity in Christ and He uses us in the tests as well and strengthens our faith.
