About Lisa J Lickel
I live and write in beautiful southern Wisconsin. I write most days, try to keep up with the markets, read a lot, cook supper and take out the garbage, teach Sunday School and ladies Bible groups. I've been a secretary, mean lunch lady, school lunch cook, aid, nanny, telephone surveyor, dealer trade car driver, receptionist, data entry clerk, graphic artist, and I'm probably forgetting some, besides wife and mom. Andy, our oldest, serves on staff for Intervarsity Christian Fellowship and started seminary last fall. He's married to the lovely Joanna. Kyle, the youngest, teaches high school English and is married to the lovely Kandace. Love is grand.

Well met, Joy! Joy's "desire to ignite a passion in women to get past the 'be all you can be' mentality of society when she urges them to draw upon God's power to 'be all He created them to be'" made me curious about her speaking and writing life.... (login or sign up to read more)

STOPPING IN TO SAY HELLO, wish you a beautiful evening and a grand weekend.

Don't you just love how God takes our muddled messes and works them for our good?

God assures you, His child, therefore; we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose. Romans 8:28. Relax, be at peace you can never work your way into God's best. If you are in Christ you have already received the promise of His best in your life. The just requirement of the law has been fulfilled in us who do not run our lives according to what our old nature wants but according to what the Spirit wants. See Romans 8:4

Even if you are suffering horrific disappointment, being atrociously treated, bombarded on every side with seemingly impossible situations. Relax and trust that God will somehow work in your circumstances to fulfill His good purpose in your life. God's guarantee to you is that ultimately good results will come forth! TRUST HIM! And never, never depend on your own understanding.

Why is this so?! How can this possibly be? It is so because: There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. Romans 8:1. Our flesh may make bad decisions and decide to roll in the mud of evil deception from time to time. By plucking fruit from the tree of evil self-reliance you can mess up. But your spirit remains untarnished. Because you are now in Christ you are righteous. You can't get any more righteous than you are now. And the law of God has already been fulfilled in your life. He is satisfied. It was by faith alone that you enter into this new life. This new life, in which God's Spirit abides in you, makes all things possible for you. And it is by faith alone that you can receive the benefits promised to those who walk in this truth. Copyright Sylvia F. Liani 2009

Humongous hugs
Sylvia :)
