Deuteronomy 7:22
The LORD your God will drive out those nations before you, little by little.
I really love this chapter in Joyce Meyer’s book, because it reminds me that God doesn’t always do things quickly or “all at once.”
In a world where microwaves are found in nearly every home and high-speed Internet seems to be the only way people want to “surf the web,” it is easy to get caught up in wanting everything NOW.
God’s ways are so different than our ways, though.
His time rarely ever matches our time. To Him a day is a like a thousand years and a thousand years is like a day.
The devil can whisper things into our minds and cause us to believe that we are never going to be all that God wants us to be…….
but in order to win the battle, we have to remember that
“little by little”
God will drive out those things that are against us…..
Maybe you are in a battle with your health or the health of one you love.
Maybe you are trying desperately to live a full life for God in spite of your deep and painful grief.
Maybe you are struggling with loneliness, depression, fear, or insecurity.
Whatever you are facing today, please remember that He who began a good work in you will be faithful to complete it!!
Even if He is completing it little by little.

In December of 2007 as our youngest son, Nick, was fighting brain cancer, I began to blog. Writing provided a way for me to release all of my questions, fears, and doubts. It also allowed me to share the ups and downs of Nick's journey with people who were praying for him all over the world. When Nick went Home in November of 2008, my blog became my way of searching for God in the midst of my deep heartache. My heart was broken and grief brought to the surface every emotion imaginable. Being able to release those emotions through my writing brought a sense of purpose to my pain. Having already walked the road of grief in 1992 when we lost our daughter to SIDS, I knew I needed a way to keep from falling into a pit of depression and despair. I had walked close to the edge of a bottomless pit when we lost our daughter,and I knew I couldn't let myself get that close to the edge again. This blog has been and continues to be my tiny corner of the world where I can share My Heart as I journey through God's Word.......thus the name........ My Heart His Words. Thank you for taking time to share life with me. If we do not meet while here on earth, I look forward to hearing all about your life when we reach our final destiny.........Heaven!

What a beautiful song and video clip. I haven’t ready my chapter 4 must go and get that done. I have become the blessed owner of a new Kindle and haven’t been able to get my nose out of Frencine River’s books all week.
Off I go to read now.
Well, I am back and have Chapter 4. I found it really encouraging to have the idea that God only changes us little by little reinforced. I often feel as if I want it “NOW”. Also that there in NO condemnation when we are in Christ. If we are feeling that way it is coming from the enemy camp. Reading this chapter has shown me how much I have grown over the years. I praise God for the good sound teaching that I have received. So that now I can be in a pretty good place, God and I. Life without the Holy Spirit would be empty.
I really like the last statement in this chapter. “Be patient with yourself!”
