To start off I want to just bring some encouragement to you- so hear this and claim it as I declare it!You are a beautiful woman of God, you are chosen & called. You were made on purpose and with a  purpose. You have power and authority through Jesus to speak truth over your life and your families lives. You are strong and capable. You are beloved dearly by our heavenly Father. You are seen and known by your creator AND He wants relationship with you! You belong and His beautiful daughter. You are a fantabulous mom, wife, sister, daughter, auntie, grandma and friend. Be encouraged friend, You are right where God wants you to be.  Trust Him, surrender to Him and let Him lead & guide your steps today. Let this be an anthem for you in this busy season friend! DOn’t let the enemy rob you of peace during this time! That brings me to this quote I say on the googleQuote for studying- if you don’t fill your mind with the word of God, the enemy will fill it with fear, anxiety, stress, worry and temptation. We have to fill our minds with God so that there is no room for any of the garbage that the world is trying to sell us. So let’s get into this episode’s topic! Building intimacy- other synonyms- closeness, familiarity, confidence, understanding, affection…loved all these words! The only way to not fall back into our old ways or get trapped in sin we thought we were free of is to surrender and spend time with God on the daily. If we don’t put these practices into play everyday we will leave ourselves open and vulnerable to the enemy’s plots. 1. Stop- stop the busy. Slow down. Take time to enjoy the things around you. But they who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint. Isaiah 40:312. Study the word!! I cannot say this enough. And I probably sound like a broken record at times but reading the Bible is KEY to your spiritual growth.        -Today I was reading(this has happened before but it’s an example) the bible and I started to ask God some questions about what and why things went down the way they did. And as I started to write, a few things came to mind. It was awesome cause it wasn’t til after that I realized that it was sort of a download from Holy Spirit. It wasn’ really an ‘answer’ per se but it was him talking to me! So boom…just another example of why ti’s so important for us to get inthere and do it ourselves…so we can learn to hear from Him!           -Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path- Psalm 119:1053. Sing/shout- in other words. PRAISE & WORSHIP! If you haven’t heard the song Praise by brandon lake/maverick city/elevation….GO LISTEN!!! It should AMP you up. THe basic gyst is no matter the circumstance we gotta praise. Declaring the goodness of God and how can we keep that inside!  Praise through our trial and temptaions and all that life thrwos at us…cause guess what HE’s got it! It’s a great song! All of these things take practice and implementation!
