Good morning everyone! And wow, here we are and it is September 23! Maybe we are going Home today, maybe not. I feel such a PEACE about me today and within me. I was up very late last night (or early this morning I guess lol) and feeling so many emotions... excitement, anticipation, anxiety, doubt, fear of unknown, love for Jesus and love for all my family, bewilderment, confusion, and I'm trying to think of words to aptly describe the feelings in my Spirit last night... but I can't because there is no way to convey it, at least not with human words.
I finally PASSED OUT from sheer exhaustion! And woke up around 10 this morning just feeling so Alive, Amazing, Incredible, No Fear and I truly mean it... ZERO, again human language can not properly convey... but I feel absolute and complete peace. And so much happiness and I don't even know why because I'm not sitting in Heaven yet!
I know I will be though. Soon. If it happens according to the very human definition of "today", like, within the next 24 human hours... AMEN! And if not... AMEN! Either way, I am HIS and it is difficult to explain but as I slept last night... and I've been feeling this a lot lately as I sleep; The best way to describe this feeling with words is: As I sleep I feel Him, His Presence, and Him literally Ministering to me as I sleep. Kind of like... sleep is when He restores me and heals me. And then I wake up every morning feeling absolutely amazing. Not so much physically. But spiritually.
Then I go through the day, doing what I always do, normal routine. He is there as I do, and I feel close to Him throughout the day. But kind of... like as the day goes on and on and on and the world gradually creeps in. Sin creeps in. Doubt creeps in. Fear creeps in. Not in a way as it would be with a person who does not believe. But it still does creep in; this world which is sin. At some point I go to sleep, and like He Ministers, He Heals, He Restores, all during that time as I sleep. And I just KNOW. I know that He is God. I know that He is coming very soon. I know to be watching. And I know that there is nothing for "me" to "do". Because He Will do it. "Basking" is the world that comes to mind... I right now am basking in His Presence, in His Glory, in His Perfection. And it feels... no human words to describe... but it feels Perfect! (Ok. I just now looked up synonyms for "perfect" because I didn't want to say the same word again and one of the synonyms listed for "perfect" is "crowning".) So... just saying... I'm feeling ALL RIGHT!!! And there is this all encompassing TRUST in HIM.
And that is the best I can do in describing how I am doing right now.
SORRY though and to the point of this thread! While I was on vacation at the beach, I decided to look up the meaning of my name, and the meaning of the names of my family members. I wanted to start a thread on it, maybe that we would all list our names and their meanings and the names of family members and what their names mean. Never got around to it. And so... no time like the present! Please share yours and your family's also (only if you want... first and middle) lol!

Edit: I feel like sharing something, kind of stupid I guess and silly. But last night/early this morning... before I passed out... I went over and opened up the bedroom window. Because I wanted to make sure I heard the trumpet if it sounded!
