The Majesty of His wonders . . . . make me say WOW and AWESOME and . . . I am speechless.
Wow . . . it is so wild to see the world through the girls eyes! I am sooooo very glad that they didn't grow up any other way than in Jesus Christ from the get go.
You know I remember going to Bible College and wondering, "What stories that everyone grew up on? What experiences of Jesus as a child in him? What, What, What? and Where?" I was like a sponge that was thrown away in the desert and being saturated didn't even seem possible until a rock climbing experience in Boulder Colorado with a bunch of "strangers" literally and figuratively speaking. They were 'different', I was looking, searching, and pondering their differences while loving the Rockies (since I LOVE THE MOUNTAINS - and ALWAYS WILL!!!) and the day's event. Yes it was the clear answer to hearing my "calling".
You see . . . I have learned a lot over the past 7 months. Through some tough times yet while 
climbing the "rocks of life" there are always risks, but when fastened securely to Jesus Christ he knows the pains, the slipping, the falls, the hanging on for dear life and the TRUST that comes with the TRUTH of reality. The Hope and knowing He's not gone but as sure as those very Rocks I'm climbing. Yep my early teens seem to have seemed to re circle and make me remember again - It's NOT about ME! He is my sure foundation, The girls sure foundation and just like he called me, answered me and guides me he is doing the same for them the way HE knows is BEST!

17 & 15 they returned from Colorado and "shinning"! Awed yet again be the splendor of God's Grace and Mercy now through my girls discovering God in a much deeper way than I did in those wonderful Mountains along the Rockies Majesty! They were literally breaking from from the world, sins that I have no clue was 'tying them down". Tues. night while I was prayer journaling for them, the Holy Spirit was already "Blowing and Burning" in their souls. He moved in where I will never be - Praise the Lord for that! My purpose to try my best to just be in Jesus and try my best to live it. 
I remember 17 for me was discovering Jesus for the first time. Falling deeply in love with him and beginning a metamorphosis that years later my 17 and 15 year old girls would get to know him on a vastly different yet the same way - TRUE LOVE - Agape Style! WOW!

June 2009 has been a year of renewal through the climbing exper
iances that have had some challenges, and some victories that exceeded my expectations. Thanks Yvonne for sharing the Love of Jesus Christ and Never stopping with a "no" response to anything! Because now even a third daughter surrendered her life to her allegiance to Jesus Christ by accepting Him into her life then being immersed. Yes life is full aroma of the wind.

Thank You Jesus for coming and asking me to follow. For I wouldn't have the joy of seeing the fruit of Your life. Amen.
The reflections of 17 . . . . and then some - Your AWESOME LORD!
