Welcome!

Just a quick note to let you know I've moved my blog to the following address:

http://www.michellebenthamcreates.com

Please visit me at REDEEMED...RESTORED...RELEASED: One Woman's Story of Living Free to read more about what God is doing in my life and how He is working those things to set me free. Thanks so much for following, visiting, reading all about it and supporting me as you have done so many times these last few years. If you follow my other blogs, the posts from all three of my blogs are going to be transferred to the new digs for one big blog about our journey to restoration and freedom in Christ.

This Monday Morning...

I believe it was Garfield who HATED Mondays... Well, this Monday I don't hate the day, but I am very frustrated about something. MY EMAIL! Yahoo has shut down my account for some or other reason and so I am now diverting everyone to my gmail account. SO... If you happen to be a person I regularly email please click on my profile and shoot me an email so I can save your addy to my contacts list as all my contacts went away along with my yahoo email account. Next time I will be importing before moving beyond the new account status! OH MY!
.
Other than that - this is a great Monday Morning. I have the first session of the first of four retreat segments ready to type up ... And the makings of a second session for the first segment all ready to begin hashing it out with God. I'm so excited about this. God gives me all this great Scripture then I mull it over, write it out and sit down with hubs and we walk through it all. It is so good and it is so good... Did I say that? Oh Yeah, I guess I did.
.
The greatest part is this is so outside what my natural tendancy is - normally I would slide around comparing commentaries and digging into word meanings, but God gives me the lessons, then points me to Scriptures and then the Holy Spirit just opens my eyes to see how it relates. The first segment is on Redeeming the Covenant and God took me to a passage in Galatians I've never even considered before. He then pulled it together with the passages on marriage I had already pulled out to review.
.
OH HE IS SO GOOD!
.
I wrote over at the RANCH BLOG that I won't be sharing those lessons online because I have a sense that I need to "protect" this information for the time being. I want people who experience them to receive the impartation of the experience with them... For now, Hubs and I are growing through these lessons together and then preparing to take these messages to the public setting via conference retreats once we've discovered where God is taking us with them.
.
Now I'm off... with a bank account to reconcile, a day of Bible study homework and a pile of laundry on my list of things to do... I better scoot! Here is our Bible reading that Scott and shared in our devotion this morning:
.
"BEHOLD, HOW good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity! 2 It is like the precious ointment poured on the head, that ran down on the beard, even the beard of Aaron [the first high priest], that came down upon the collar and skirts of his garments [consecrating the whole body]. 3 It is like the dew of [lofty] Mount Hermon and the dew that comes on the hills of Zion; for there the Lord has commanded the blessing, even life forevermore [upon the high and the lowly]." Psalms 133:1-3 (AMP)
.
Aren't those just the sweetest Words? He is so good!

I love that Psalm!!!! I saw this last year for unity in regards to our ministry team. I love the imagery of unity being a fragrant oil flowing from the top of your head and on down, annointing and consecrating the whole body or team!
