Happy Mother’s Day! My mom was a woman of silent strength. I don’t care how strong dad was in the flesh, it was the inner strength of mom that sustained all of us kids and modeled for us how to withstand under the pressures of living. I will always love mom for this.

My continued growth is not ending. Today Jesus was telling me it is time for me to stop questioning the strength of His and my spirit within me. The only way we can fully overcome the power of the flesh is surrendering the flesh, but, after that, one has to find strength to replace it. That strength is found when we quit fighting using our mental strength and listen closely to the voice of our spirit which is called intuition. Our spirit is housed in God’s Holy Spirit. He is the Strength of God Himself. But, His Voice is tender so that we have to choose to listen. Disciplining myself to listen closely throughout the day and following the message given is critical.

I’m good at doing this as the day begins and I want to continue growing in my listening as the day continues. I suppose I’m better than I use to be for Jesus has been working with me on this for quite some time. As I write this I also suppose I’ll be working on this the rest of my days of flesh. Irregardless, I never want to stop growing in my walk with God and growing in my trusting Him completely in every aspect of every day!
