One of my North Carolina childhood friends wrote something this year that resonates LOUDLY with me. Specifically the, "I see you".....

-----------------------------
Earlier this year I, was in Oklahoma seeing after my brother in law whom we had just seen three weeks earlier in New York. We saw him in New York at his and Malcolm’s father’s funeral. Their father had just died suddenly at the age of 69 of a massive stroke...we were in Oklahoma three weeks later because Kenny, my brother in law, had just had a stroke…He's only 47!! Candace sent me a text ...she didn't know I was in Oklahoma…she didn’t know I was in the ICU… she didn't know...she send me a text...Keyna, I need an acronym for ICU...she didn't know I was actually in ICU the Intensive Care Unit...
God begin to speak...he said when people are sent to the ICU they are in critical condition, they need special attention, because they are on the very threshold of life and death...the outcome doesn't look good...either you are coming out of ICU or you're not....as you are lying there fighting to live..I see you! Did you hear me? I see you...not the letters ICU but the words! God literally says I see you!
Your situation needs special attention… who better for the job than God himself? He said in Hebrews 6:13 …For when God made promise to Abraham, (put your name there) For when God made promise to YOU, because he could swear by no one greater, he swore by himself …
What if, what if you need treatment for a broken heart? You loved him...but he didn't love you. You had his babies but he didn't stay. You thought you were the only one, but there were 4 more!
All clear
God says, “I see you.”
All clear
God says, “I see you.”
What if, what if the lump you feel keeps getting bigger and bigger, but you ignore it.
It's starting to hurt now, but your insurance doesn't cover the exam your car payment is due, the house note too but this knot…
All clear

What if, what if your husband hasn't been feeling well, but he keeps working hard...he doesn’t really know what's going on but he has to provide for you and the children...he feels worse than he's ever felt he goes to work …you get a call ….he's collapsed.. he has kidney failure...he needs a transplant...no matching donor...he's 10,099 on the wait list…
All clear
God says, “I see you.”
All clear

What if, what if you are pregnant for the second time you are hopeful ...you think positive thoughts you pray and cry you pray and you cry...Lord, let me carry this baby to full term please, God, please...you start to bleed..oh no...miscarriage number two…
All clear
God says, “I see you.”
All clear

I could name situation after situation. You can even insert your own ICU story. The fact remains the same God sees you! The situations look bleak, but we are gonna speak! We are gonna speak life into every situation... Shall these dry bones live? Yes...I shall live and not die!
Speak life
Dear Lord, I thank you for my faithful husband who will love me and my children, but most of all he will love you!

God, this lump in my breast, I speak a totally healing...you say in your word that by his stripes we are healed...yes, you are speaking to me! As I speak and believe, my body is healed of cancer. My body is healed of any foreign thing that may cause me harm.. I believe you! I trust you!

Sweet Master, you gave me my mate! You did that! You gave him to me for him to be my provider, my lover, my friend! Well, God he needs a kidney...I don't know how and I don't know when, but you’re gonna fix it! He's 10,099 on the wait list! But you said, where two or three are gathered in your name, you would be there in the midst. You also said if we touch and agree and believe … we need a kidney, Lord.

Dear Father, you said in your word that we shall be fruitful and multiply. Touch my womb make it a safe haven for my unborn child. Touch my body help me bring my child into the world...bless me like Hannah! I know you can do it, Lord. You've done it before and you can do it again!

Situations look bleak; our faith is weak but God’s words we speak. If we have faith as a grain of mustard seed we can say to these mountains….MOVE!!! These are mountains, Lord!
These are intensive care unit mountains...
God says...
All clear
I See You!!!
You see me god? You see me?.....now…now….God….I see you!
