He's Got You!

Lord, deliver us from evil!

Dear Lord, stay the hand of the enemy!

Lord, please come and see about us!

Dear God, help us!

Lord, save us from...!

These are "small" prayers 🙏🏽 that tumble around in my heart daily.

My small world is comparatively ok, but I'm very aware that the hand of evil is reaching and touching. I see the hurt, lawlessness, and injustice and it's heartbreaking. 💔 SO heartbreaking. 💔😢

Some nights, my heart is so heavy because of events, I pray for a personal God encounter. I crave and need a personal, rejuvenating encounter with Him. A "I'm here...I've got you," kind of encounter.

I had a dream Sunday night that was so vivid. Some of the scenes still replay in my mind. I'll share one here. 

I was riding in a car with a Christian powerhouse --the sho' nuf born-again, Bible believin' kind. I looked out the window and stared at the clouds. The longer I looked up, a huge shape took on more  definition. 

The Christian riding with me pointed and asked, "Don't you see those angels up there?"

The image I was looking at became crystal clear. It was a huge winged angel as we imagine their appearance to be, standing on top of a high mountain. As I looked, the angel moved away to do something, then instantly returned to its place.

I answered with awe, "Yes, I can't believe I'm seeing this, but I'm actually seeing an angel!"

As I continued to look up, I saw there were other angels encircled all around us. All huge and standing on top of high mountains. Some winged. Some looked like regular people--you and I. All were swiftly accomplishing tasks, returning to their place, then watching. 

The thought I had about that scene upon waking was there are angels encamped all around me. Thank you God, for seein' about me! 🙌🏾 😭

Why did I share this?

The Bible tells us God is no respecter of persons. He doesn't show partiality and favoritism. So if He's got me, He's got you too.

We must keep looking up to the hills from which comes our help. Our help comes from the Lord.

Be encouraged, today. He's got you! ❤

Just keepin' it real...

The Confessions of Mae B. Yew I've Got a Man! June 03, 2010 The last time we spoke I was sportin’ a goose egg on my forehead (compliments of Momma). If you missed my last confession, you can find it at Momma and the Goose Egg . Shortly after I lost my mind and blew up at Momma, I apologized because I was wrong. I don’t know how ya’ll were raised, but I was taught to never ever disrespect my momma. Do you know what she did? Momma kissed my goose egg and said, “Baby, I’m sorry I put this thing on your beautiful face.” She hugged me real tight, and her gardenia perfume drifted over me in a loving, fragrant cloud. That was sweet wasn’t it? Wait. There’s more. Then she said, “But if you ever speak to me like that again, I’ll knock you into tomorrow, then love on ya just like this when you come to.” What can I say? That’s my momma. Enough about Momma and my goose egg. Ya’ll, I’ve got a man! When I became a Christian, I’m not sure what happened. Men of substance stopped coming near me, an...
