Bon Weekend

I spent this weekend in Coventry, and it was such a joy to visit! The Lord really used people and different things to bring strength and encouragement to my heart.


One of the big things was realising the work He has been doing in my heart since I have been home. It's hard to see it when you are in the same place!
 I've been awakened to the fact that I totally have a people pleasing syndrome... and it has taken such a long time for me to admit this... especially before God;
       But the Lord has been really gently but fiercely opening up my heart, and in doing this He is showing me things that need to be overcome and really reminding me His power and willingness to leading me into more victory and freedom. yeahhh.
I'm so thankful for this!......... and being in Coventry I really saw how He has already released some of my desire to please people - to be affirmed by others just isn't my first anymore.
Oh such liberation I find in the journey to become a lover living for an audience of one.


I am found and planted by the streams of the river of God - He is my affirmation and delight - He is the only one I want to please.. and I am waiting more and more to see that become a true reality in the way I interact with life .


It's just so good to know that He is faithful in making me more like Him. i'm so amazed by Jesus and the sheer brilliance of His nature.


I want so much more!

I  LOVE DOORTJE

Oh the Deep, Deep Love of Jesus

Oh the deep deep love of Jesus


Vast, unmeasured, boundless, free,
Rolling as a mighty ocean
In its fullness over me.


Underneath me, all around me,
Is the current of thy love;
leading onward, leading homeward
To my glorious rest above.



Oh the deep deep love of Jesus!


Spread His love from shore to shore
How he loves us, Ever loves us
Changes never, never more
Watching fiercely over His loved ones
Died to call them all His own.


How for them He is interceding,
Watching over them from the throne



OH the deep deep LOVE of Jesus!!


Love of every love the Best.
Tis an ocean vast of blessing
Tis a haven sweet of rest.
Oh the deep deep Love of Jesus,


Tis a heaven of heavens to me;


And it lifts me up to glory
For it lifts me up to thee.



The Love of Jesus is everything.
I cannot express it!





Wonderful Love.
