God is opening so many new doors this year. I stand amaze in His goodness, love, mercy and grace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is the reason I took some private time to pray and study. But, mostly to just sit in God\u2019s presence and listen. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I did not let the noise around me, keep the fire burning wind of the Holy Spirit from engulfing me with a fresh anointing, a new Vision. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I thank God for pouring a new oil over me. I allowed Him to renew me, so I could accept and understand the anointing oil being poured into me. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
All I can say to each of you would be, steal away into the arms of your Father God. He is waiting to hug you. To shield you. To share with you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Are you ready?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Blessings, Love and Prayers,
\nPastor Pat Aman<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cCome to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.\u201d Matthew\u202c \u202d11:28-30\u202c \u202dNKJV\u202c\u202c <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The poem below was shared with me on November 7th, 2010, by a dear friend and sister, Kaye Carr.
\nShe is in Heaven now, and I do miss her so very much. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I think we should, as Kaye said to me, \u201cPat, I think this world would be a better place to live, if everyone would follow the advice of this poem.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Slow Me Down Lord
\nAuthor: ~ Wilfred A. Peterson~<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Slow me down, Lord!
\nEase the pounding of my heart
\nBy the quieting of my mind.
\nSteady my harried pace
\nWith a vision of the eternal reach of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Give me,
\nAmidst the confusions of my day,
\nThe calmness of the everlasting hills.
\nBreak the tensions of my nerves
\nWith the soothing music
\nOf the singing streams
\nThat live in my memory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Help me to know
\nThe healing power of sleep,
\nTeach me the art
\nOf taking minute vacations
\nOf slowing down
\nTo look at a flower;
\nTo chat with an old friend
\nOr make a new one;
\nTo pat a stray dog;
\nTo watch a spider build a web;
\nTo smile at a child;
\nOr to read a few lines from a good book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Remind me each day that
\nthe race is not always to the swift;
\nThat there is more to life
\nthan increasing its speed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let me look upward
\nInto the branches of the towering oak
\nAnd know that it grew great and strong
\nBecause it grew slowly and well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Slow me down, Lord,
\nAnd inspire me to send my roots deep
\nInto the soil of life’s enduring values
\nThat I may grow toward the stars
\nOf my greater destiny.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
