Right off the bat in this second letter to the Thessalonians, Paul commends them on how their faith is growing and how their love for others is increasing. I love this...As I read this, I reflected on a conversation I had with a dear freind of mine just yesterday. Based on our conversation and the things she shared with me, her faith is growing and her love is ever increasing and she is seeing through new eyes (His eyes). She would tell you the strides she has made in coming out of a dark place are small but I see them as grand. I hear Him saying to her just as he has says to me and to you, " For I know the plans I have for you, dear one, to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future....I am the Lord your God nothing is to hard for me..." I am estatic about the things I know He is doing in her life and ours. When she reads this, I am sure she will know it is she that I am refering to. I love you my friend, keep your heart set on Him, water it daily with His word, He is faithful... I could not help but boast about you and thank God for you...
Like the spring flowers that are bursting forth from the earth, so is faith rising up out of the hearts of those who are set on Him...Spring has a way of resurrecting us, it calls us to grow upward towards him...The heart is the soil, His word is the water and faith is the beautiful flower that blooms in many colors, shapes and sizes...

About Me
- His Delighted Servant
- My faith is what moves me , it is enjoyable, irresistable, lovely and warm with a sense of mystery. Its like a summer day with a gentle breeze blowing my hair, like a butterfly emerging from a cacoon, like a flower pushing its way through the soil of the earth, like a hidden treasure waiting to be found, yes it is my faith that defines me and I am completely content regardless of what goes on around me...My life with Yeshua is like a well written novel that I can not and will not put down... My greatest desire is to be used by Him to touch hearts without religiousity, denominationalism or legalism. One heart at a time. God Bless All from Shelli
