Your Loved Forever

YOU ARE ACCEPTED, NOT REJECTED.

- John 15:16

I want you to know that "Your Loved Forever". I don't know where you find yourself today, but I am here to tell you that You are Loved Forever, no matter what. So many things can come at us and we find ourselves in despair. But you need to know that God says you are... 

Accepted, Wonderfully Made, Forgiven, Loved, Blessed, Chosen, Cherished, Enough, Known, Strong, Delightful, Valuable, Beautiful and His Forever.

I recently went to a TobyMac Christian Concert in Tampa and like I Love all his songs. But one of the Artists "We Are Messengers" that he brought along with him sang one of my favorite songs called "Maybe It's Ok" The song is more than lyrics, it's truth. It is real. A lot of us have these huge walls up around our weakness when in reality letting them fall down and be vulnerable you are able to be truly free in Christ. No one is perfect. No one has the perfect life, like that isn't possible because we all fall short of God's glory. Today whether you are reading this from prison or the free world, please know that coming clean and being real makes you enough. We don't have to have it all together, but realness comes in being authentic, the real you. In realness we can willing share our struggles, laugh at ourselves, face fear, get back up when we fall, avoid gossip and just Love one another unconditionally. Your are Beloved, and I am thinking about you. Don't give up, miracles happen every day, like you are one of them...you are a miracle. Don't ever forget that! Ok, back to the song, I prayerfully hope these beautifully written lyrics touch your heart. 

If I didn't know what it hurt like to be broken

Then how would I know what it feels like to be whole

If I didn't know what it cost like to be rejected 

Then I wouldn't know that Your Love coming home

Maybe it's ok if I'm not ok

'Cause the One who holds the world is holding onto me

Maybe it's all right if I'm not all right

'Cause the One who holds the stars is holding my whole life

If I didn't know what it look like to be dirty

Then I wouldn't know what it feels like to be clean

And if all of my shame haven't drove me to hide in the shadows

Then I wouldn't know the beauty of being free

Father, let Your kingdom come, let Your will be done

Here in my heart as in Heaven

Maybe it's ok if I'm not ok

'Cause the One who holds the world is holding onto me

Maybe it's all right if I'm not all right

'Cause the One who holds the stars is holding my whole life

Now I'm alive in You

The best that I deserved

Now I'm alive and I can see You in everything

Maybe it's ok if I'm not ok

Mistakes help us learn.

Sin is a choice we deliberately make even though we know better.

Mistakes are done with innocence.

Sin comes from a heart that holds rebellion.

Mistakes lead to growth.

Sin leads to decay

- Holly Gerth

May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in Him so that you may overflow with hope by the power of The Holy Spirit.

- Romans 15:13 

You are so awesome! 

So Smile...

Your Loved Forever.

Your Life Matters to God

Happy May and Happy Mother's Day! 

Sending a special message of Love and comfort to all who have lost their Mom. 

The above picture is my Mom. 

She died suddenly on September 16, 2002 from cancer.

I share this to say I understand the pain. 

I miss my Mom all the time. 

God is with you and He knows the pain and He will comfort you during this time.

There are many things we don't understand that God does. I still don't know why my Mom died suddenly with no warning. But as we place our trust in God in everything He does we will find the strength to continue on. Since my Mom died almost 16 years ago I have really learned that your life matters to God. We might not understand everything He does or doesn't do, 

but we can trust in the fact that He Loves us. 

I personally believe that even through death we must be intentional in all we do.

Tomorrow isn't promised, Today is all we have and because of my experience with losing my Mom I can say it's very important to tell people and show them that you Love them. 

Your life matters to God and He Loves you.

So I send this message to anyone who has experienced death of a Love one to let you know that you are not forgotten. He is with you even if you think He isn't. 

God Loves you so much that He only created one of you, 

so that makes you way special.  

May God give you great comfort during Mother's Day and beyond 

that no matter what you face He is with you and you are incredibly Loved by Him.

Happy Mother's Day Mom. 

I Love and Miss you so much!

Happy Mother's Day 2017

A short but full of Love post to say....

"Happy Mother's Day" to all YOU beautiful Mom's. 

May your day be filled with nothing but sweet times. 

Sending lots of Love and comfort to those who will be

without their Mom's for the first time this holiday, 

I know how you feel. 

Happy Mother's Day to first time Mommies 

may you experience nothing but 

joy with your new bundle of joy.

Mom's,  your kids are out there, but keep standing on His promise, 
they will be back. 
May your day be filled with Hope. 

God Bless all Mom's and may God Bless you in your lying down, rising up, going out, coming in and make all your plans succeed with great peace and joy. 

Much Love,

Trachena
