Psalm 23 (TPT)  Beth (B) – Oh Lord The Lord is my best friend and my shepherd. I always have more than enough. He offers a resting place for me in his luxurious love. His tracks take me to an oasis of peace, the quiet brook of bliss. That’s where he restores and revives my life. He opens

Beth (B) – So wondering about what I see and how I can get to seeing the way you see Lord? Thinking on gratitudes list – blessings and favor – and while it keeps me thanking and praising, it is measuring – I don’t think you measure that way – what am I seeing from the world’s measure

I was enjoying a morning shower and thought, “Lord, I want to know what is fun to you? Show me fun.” And guess what, he did. I was running errands and I saw two young teenagers standing outside the post office. I figured they were either enjoying a school holiday or they were homeschoolers, so I asked.  They were twins

I listened, asked questions, listened, prayed and went to you Lord, again.  And here is where I started. Beth (B) – I am feeling this pushback on this whole Spirit of Fear thing. 

Victory. My created measuring stick and oh how short my circumstances fall. Victory with the baby.  I had my eyes so set on the prize for so long and thought that was the end game – matching my circumstances to the prophetic words and dreams, and it didn’t happen again and again. How different to have my eyes

Beth (B) – So if everything is upside down and inside out, what is it you see Lord? What is truth? What is Kingdom reality? What excruciating circumstances are really the Garden of Eden, or the promised land (picturing the image of the Holy Spirit garden in the Shack)? What is it to you Lord? What do you
