Wow!

Wow! What a view! Wish I could live here, but visiting on an anniversary get-away is a real treat!

The wind blowing, the waves crashing, the sounds of its enormous power - its just glorious! Each one of us needs times of refreshing, both physically and spiritually. Yet for most of us, life is full of setbacks, and it escapes us as to what change could make the difference to get us closer to God. No amount of money or possessions will get you into the deep places of Gods Holy Spirit. So how do we get the Life of God down into our lives? Well, that happens in the trenches of life. And that is what I would like to share with you - the visitations of revelation from the throne of God. I Hope they minister to your soul - Victoria.

Acceptance with Joy

"For love comes into the heart not by trying to force it, but by accepting people as they are, and bearing all that they do against you." This is from the book Mountains of Spices

This will also magnify our love towards God—accepting each situation that comes upon us as from His Hand. And we are to accept them with JOY---not resignation. We accept joyfully because it will produce something. The seed, when left to die, always does! As we begin to accept what comes our way, bitterness and resentment, self-pity and despair will fly out the window of our hearts, for to accept is to surrender to the truth that He knows what is needed. And to accept with joy gives us strength for the journey.
When we surrender to trusting Him by accepting all things as from His Hand, and when we do this with the joy that gives us our strength, we can be assured our destination will be arrived upon. Constant and consistent surrender produce acceptance and constant and consistent acceptance produces peace—which we are to be led forth by—so therein lies the compass for our journey to the High Places—peace! And it is all rooted in what loves truest nature is---Acceptance with joy.
