About Karen Lemburg

Hi I'm Karen, wife, mother and grandmother. I am on the journey of a more intimate relationship with God. I'm blessed to married to a wonderful husband who is also in pursuit of intimacy with our Lord. We work together in real estate and ministry. We have four children, seven grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.

Live in the Now

Moment by moment I will lead you. Moment by moment I am here. When you try and live outside of this moment, you are either running ahead of Me or staying behind. I want you right here with Me. I want you in the NOW. Treasure Our time together. Treasure this day. This is the day that I have made, rejoice and be glad in it.

Psalm 118:24

Move Forward

My child, I am calling you to a peaceful life. Let My peace guard your heart and mind. Learn to rest in Me, rejoice in Me and be thankful. I, the God of peace am with you. I will supply all your needs. I will be with you in times of trouble. Let not your heart be anxious. Do not fear and do not doubt. I have called you to a life of faith. Walk in faith and do not shrink back. Victory awaits you as you confidently and boldly move forward with Me.

Philippians 4:4-9 & 19      John 14:1

This Is The Way

My child, I am paving the way for you. I open doors no one can shut and close doors no one can open. I will make your path clear to you. You will hear Me say, “This is the way, walk in it.” Put your trust in Me and wait for Me. My best is always worth waiting for.

Isaiah 22:22     Isaiah 45:1-3     Isaiah 30:21

Bond Servants

My child, turn your focus off of yourself and on to Me. Stop looking inward and look outward. There are a lot of hurting people out there. You are to be My hands and feet. You are to represent Me to a lost and lonely world. You may be the only one they meet today that knows Me. You may be the only one who can speak life to them. Look for opportunities to share Me today. I have placed you in a wide open mission field. Be My laborers. Be My bond servant. Be My ambassador today. Represent Me well today.

Matthew 5: 13-16    1 Corinthians 3:9     2 Corinthians 5:20

Greatest Delight

My child, you say that you want Me to be your greatest delight, but your actions would tell Me otherwise. You allow distractions to overtake you and swallow up time otherwise spent with Me. You get caught up in the daily routine without giving Me a thought. If you truly wanted Me to be your greatest desire and delight, then I would be in the front of your mind and constantly in your thoughts. Let Me help you get there. I have called you and I will bring it to pass. Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks, for this is My will for you. This will lead to a powerful and victorious life.

1 Thessalonians 5:24     1 Thessalonians 5: 16-18

My Greatest Gift

My child, My lovingkindness is everlasting and My great goodness is toward you. I have compassion, mercy and love for you. I have given you the greatest gift, My Son, who takes away the sin of the world. Don’t  neglect this great gift. Receive and enjoy Jesus, the Lover of your soul, but don’t be stingy or hoard Him. Give Him away to others. The more you share Him with others, the more you will experience Him.

Your Father, the giver of life.

Isaiah 63:7        John 1:29

Soothe Your Soul

My child, I want everyone to experience the freedom, the joy, the peace and the love that is available in Me. If people only knew how it would nourish their entire being to spend time with Me they’d do it more often. I have created you for intimacy with Me. I cherish the time you give to communing with Me. Nothing that this world has to offer will soothe your soul like time spent with Me.

Galatians 5:22    Psalm 27:4

Freedom and Confidence

My child, keep the faith. Keep believing Me when all seems lost. Your faith in Me pleases Me. When you doubt, you’re doubting My ability to take care of the situation. Don’t doubt, only believe. This may go against every fiber of your being, but learn to trust Me in EVERYTHING. Only then will you be able to walk in the freedom and confidence I’ve called you to.

Hebrews 11:6    Galatians 3:6
