		<description>Well, ok!

Angie, the Lord has given you insights into heavenly secrets - He has given you eyes that can see beyond most people&#039;s sight, and this is something unique to you.  You are made in His image and likeness, and with the indelible imprint of Himself all over you.  He fashioned you from the inside out, and your design is to impact the kingdom of God.  You are a mover and shaker; not called to be on the sidelines, but called to speak right to the heart of the matter.  Your sight, your hands.  I see you moving in the calling in those ways.  Where your eyes see, your hands reach.  And your smile is always there to display the image and likeness of God in living form.  Your children are called after you; in the knowledge and power of the Lord.  They are like arrows in your hand, and they will impact as you have done, but with greater measure.  This is multiplication.  You&#039;re showing them how, and they will run with it.  The presence of the Lord surrounds you wherever you go; the army of the Lord stands ready around you.  You are never alone, but a host surrounds you wherever you go.  They are ministers of light and a fighting force to protect and preserve all that concerns you.  They consider it an honor to do this, for you are highly esteemed in heavenly places.  The Lord is your banner.  The Lord is your rear guard.  He goes before and behind you to fight for you against all your enemies.  He is your shelter; He is your shade.  He is your glory, and the voice offering encouragement and action at your ear.  He will be with you and sustain you in troubled times.   All of the paths your feet are to walk, He has ordained, and walked in already.  He has trampled the grasses to show you a path, and the land is yours before you lay claim to it.  Above all else, He is mighty.  He is mighty FOR you, and IN you, and WITH you, and He will be your resting place.  Like a soft cozy armchair, He will enfold you at the end of a long day.  He will whisper words of peace as you rest, and stroke your brow as you fall asleep.  He has loved you with an everlasting love, and will never tire of displaying that love for you.  Your sleep will be sweet, for He will guard and protect you in slumber.  Your night will be turned into day, and your weariness into joyful shouting.  All of your paths are peace, and He will preserve and sustain you.

As you rest tonight ... feel the sweet breeze of His presence wash over you.  He is with you.  Be not afraid.</description>

		<description>Anita la animadora - I like the idea of a code word / phrase. Yes, we are members of the same body. Just as a hand instinctively rubs a funny bone that gets bumped we need to help each other out. A word of encouragement is always welcome. Thanks for being willing to be an encourager to me. I really, really, really, really appreciate it.</description>

		<description>Hey there friend.  I love you and the things you write.  I especially love this post and the good responses you´ve gotten from it.  I agree that many times (at least in my own life) it is pride that keeps us from sharing our real struggles and down times.  We don´t want to burden others, of course, but really we don´t want to admit...even to ourselves...that we are so feeble, flawed, and so easily brought down.  In short, we don´t want to admit to being human.  It´s funny because one thing that people have always commented on about Joe and me is that we are transparent...what you see is what you get.  It is who we are.  We are not pretenders.  I think that is indeed true and yet there is so much more to me that I don´t ´publically´ share.  I need good friends, confidants, that will encourage me and build me up that I can reveal even more of myself to. These people need to be ones that also point out the splinter in my eye (or the beam...as the case might be).  I think this is how God treats us as well.  The more we want to get to know him the more He reveals Himself to us.  The more we share with him and see his faithfulness and love in our lives the more confidence we have in him.  The more confidence we have in Him the more we allow Him to correct us and we allow Him to encourage us when we need it.  We go to Him for it.  For me, the people that I ´let inside´ include my hubby, my older kiddos, you and others that I know and trust that have proven their unconditional love and commitment to me.  Those I see that let God work in their lives and that are not afraid to ask for help either.  Those I can open up even more of myself to.  Those who can see the ugly, vulnerable parts and still love me.  It is a challenge to find those kind of people, but when you do what treasures they are!  I am treasuring and loving you at this moment.</description>

		<description>I&#039;m nearly the opposite at times.  I process externally - so I often share my stories to people to weigh advice/reactions.  It&#039;s something &lt;i&gt;I&lt;/i&gt; need to work on... at some point, telling my woes to others isn&#039;t necessary.  Finding that stopping point is pretty key.  And hard to do!  Haibo.</description>
