a new season

If our God is for us, who can be against us? I have spent my first week in Sydney feeling sicky and frankly I didn't like it one bit. I wanted to catch the next flight and go home. But of course there is an angel beside me who was speaking and reminding me why I was here. Martin was so patient with me for the last few days we've been together. He was taking care of me and his parents made sure I was as comfortable as possible. I kept on saying to myself who is this man and why was he so passionate about me? I felt isolated from my family and my spiritual family for a while and it was feeling weird -don't want to ever go back to feeling that way again. I have been part of a local church in manila for five years now and it's a first for me to be away from my spiritual family. Not being able to be connected to any of the Christians here was hard enough let alone be sick. Martin was fed up by Friday and he started telling me to get up and we're not going to allow this sickness to defeat you. You have already defeated Satan by the blood of the Lamb and by the power of your testimony and he has no power over you.

Father, here I am at your disposal, have your way in me. You are my refuge, my fortress, my stronghold, my salvation, you are my all. The very reason why I breath, move, cry, sing, and have my being is because of you. I want to know you, I want to be with you and know your will for my life, for this new season in my life. Martin is now part of my life and every decision I make will impact his life too. Give me the wisdom and the understanding to be an equal partner who will love and support him. I want to learn how to be a wife and a woman after God's own heart.
