Bible Life Coaching with Sheri Rose Shepherd

Duration: 365 days
He is God... We Are Not!
by Sheri Rose Shepherd

Teach me to do your will, for you are my God. May your Gracious Spirit lead me forward on a firm footing. - Psalm 143:10

I know it seems a little scary to surrender our lives and our relationships to a God we can not see with our human eyes. But our seemingly faceless heavenly father shines His love and lights our way when we totally surrender our desires for His divine intervention. The truth is that there is complete freedom when you let go of the need to control your destiny and grab on to your Fathers hands in heaven.

Sometimes we fight so hard for what we want out of life and our relationships that we forget to ask God what His will is for our life and relationships. Being a mother, I dreaded the day it was Gods will for me to let go of my son and let him grow into a man. If we are holding on too tightly to what we want for ourselves or for our loved ones, we will miss out on Gods perfect and exceedingly more abundant will.

His Love Letter to You

My Child,

You are to Me a beautiful song. Your life is a sweet symphony that I Myself am composing note by note. I take your failures, your tears, and your triumphs, and I turn them into a glorious harmony that will be sung in the heavens for all of eternity. All your thoughts and deeds are laid before Me like notes on a page. Every choice you make is a significant chord in an eternal arrangement. Don’t let the noise of the world destroy your magnificent melody. Seek Me in the quiet stillness of the morning, and I will fill your heart with divine music. Stay in rhythm with My Spirit throughout the day, and I will make your life an irresistible medley that will linger like sweet perfume in the hearts of all that journey with you. Walk with Me in absolute surrender, and you will draw others to Me in a rhapsody of praise.

Love,
Your King and your Composer
