REFLECTION: Now that we've crept into the ninth month of the year I find myself reflecting yet again; where is my heart, what thoughts have I allowed to enter my mind, am I living, have I grown, what are my plans, have I kept my word to myself, my children, my family, to God, what have I accomplished, what have I learned and over all, what can I do differently to improve? These are many of the questions that linger in my heart and mind.
The answers are both simple and complex; God has been the center and foundation of my heart, my thoughts, my mind, my living, and my plans. He has done the increase and is the author and commander of my dreams and goals; for vision comes from Him. All in all, I learned to trust God more, to grow in Him through His word by studying daily, resting daily in Him, quieting the voices in my head that I may hear the true and authentic voice.
God is my guide. He is my source and what I do to improve is to STAY IN THE SECRET PLACE! So if you want my attention, if you want my time, if you want to hear words, if you question where I am or where I am going, know this; I am in the secret place and the only way to get to me is to come IN to that same place. May you find your secret place…your ultimate resting place in God!

Shield of shields, Light of light,
Oil of oil, Giver of gifts,
Love from love, Peace from peace,
Sleep from sleep, Awaken spirit,
Surely there is Depth in depth,
Matter from matter, Dirt from dirt,
Creations of creation, Piece by piece,
Seeking rest from rest; Here in the secret place,
My secret resting place; Strength is here,
Love, Hope, Peace, Joy; Increase resides here,
Increase in wisdom, knowledge and understanding,
Secret, no secret; Open to embrace all who seek
Here, In the secret place is all one desires
