β Today's Promise: "One thing I have asked of the Lord, this is what i'm looking for: to dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to inquire in his temple." Psalm 27:4
~ Kristine in the Netherlands
Dear brides, I can no longer disobey My Heavenly Father and Loving Lord and Husband. It's unbelievable how my life has changed from the moment He took my hand to make this Restoration Journey with Him. A few weeks ago I read this Psalm 28. The above Psalm has penetrated deeply. It is unbelievable what He has done for me this past year. At the beginning of the year I knew He was going to do great things in my life as well as in the lives of your brides, relatives and friends.
The first blessing I can remember is that after many years of waiting my sister got an apartment of her own. Her employer is full of praise for the work she does. My mother, who had a psychosis attack of several hours a few years ago, is still being treated by doctors. But to this day, they can't say exactly what caused the attack. My mother is a very God-fearing woman, who has been an example in my life.
Sometimes it makes me sad what happened. But I also know that through trials and struggles He draws us closer to Him. Every trial has a purpose. The goal is not only for you but mainly for the people around you. My former mother-in-law remarked to me this year when she saw my mother that she looked very good. All honor and praise is for my Heavenly man who cares for His bride.
The next blessing is that, despite taking the online classes challenging for him, my oldest son made it to second grade. After that my Lord blessed me by opening the door for me so that I could start the online Meetings "Wise Women". From that moment on I have experienced the change in my relationship with Him. What a blessing to be able to tell other women about the abundant life He has made possible for us. The sheer joy is indescribable. But also how they can restore the different relationships, by being a wise woman.
As the author of the book "Finding the Abundant Life" says in one of the chapters, she can think of no greater joy than to see her children follow the principles of our Lord. Then I feel very blessed. My eldest is now independently engaged in discovering the principles (laws) of the Bible. My oldest son came to me one day with questions about the Ten Commandments. And these are the children who suffered the most when I destroyed my marriage with my own hands
.
Dear brides, I do nothing at all but wallow in His Word and give back to others what He gives me. In the meantime, He is faithful and merciful to restore me and the lives of my loved ones. Surely there will be more great things He has done. However, I don't know anymore. If I must share them, I ask Him to bring them back to me in my mind.
As the year draws to a close, these are the great things I can remember and know He will do great things for all of us
. Already now I ask His Holy Spirit to imbue us so that through the Word of our testimonies, we can show and hear the love of our Heavenly Man to every woman who is looking for hope and real LOVE. He is all I need. I love him.
"O Lord, my inheritance and my cup, You yourself perpetuate what fate assigned me. The measuring lines fell to me in sweet streams, yea, my inheritance is pleasing to me." Psalm 16:5-6
-He loves me. He will always love me and shower me with all the good that He already has ready for me.
"One thing I have asked of the Lord, this is what i'm looking for: to dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to inquire in his temple." Psalm 27:4
-I feel happy that He chose me to get closer to Him. Even though sometimes I don't feel worth it.
