Flight Home from Texas - A Glass of Wine & Things Get REAL

Father,
​
It’s so interesting the things You are beginning to open up in my mind - things You are setting me free to let go of and bless others with what You have given us.  There are so many avenues of giving and blessing that are non-traditional and I am seeing that now. It does not have to be in a way of “non profit”, but blessing other women one-on-one that You put into my life. Open my eyes to the seemingly unimportant that are around me, because it doesn’t seem significant enough to me. Show me the significant to You. Help me to see Your purpose and not my own. Forgive me for being so self-focused in what I can gain in every action, but help me to be a vessel for You and forget about me for once! Let go of self-protection and throw it out there! Wow - letting go of myself opens a WORLD to You and opens impossibilities to Your power and opens ways to influence others to know You, Lord Jesus. Wow, Wow, Wow! This is freedom now, I can see it. This is true freedom! Why get hung up in senseless arguments amongst ourselves? How stupid and time consuming - a waste of time is this!!! Oh my goodness - Lord direct me and as You are doing this in me - open my eyes to see new opportunities I could never imagine or see, because I was blinded by pride, self-protection, fear, and condemnation through comparison. You called me to adopt the five children I have, You knew our future, and You planned for us all - get me on the path You have planned for all of us. Use me to walk it out and lead. Only You knew what the call was and is. I have faltered and been hindered by my own imaginations. Now I only want to have imaginations of You and Your will. Thank you so much for creation and Your wonderful gift of love to do all that for us as humanity. Oh Lord, that we could understand the width and breadth, the scope of who You are - UNimaginable, because our minds are finite.

I also pray and lift up President Trump - Your choosing for the hour - Oh Lord, protect Him and give him the key, the caveat to the blocking of all he commands through executive orders. Shut the mouth of the lion ONE more time. Bring forth Your righteousness and bring the proud low - as only You can do. Give me a Word to encourage our President as humble as that may be. Encourage him through those You have surrounded him with. Strengthen him.
