A man hath joy by the answer of his mouth: and a word spoken in due season, how good is it! Proverbs 15: 23
Pleasant words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones. Proverbs 16:24
Death and life are in the power of the tongue, And those who love it will eat its fruit. Proverbs 18:21

You are His Queen – The King of Creation kisses you full on your mouth with His passionate love. He blesses you with wonderful love and attention.
It’s better than wine, and is worth more than oil.
When He says your name – Karen, meaning “pure”
Creation stops to see….
if you will run into His arms.
Though others may scoff you loving the King of Creation,
He knows you adore Him.
He ordained you to plant His fields,
to be darkened by the rays of His SON,
to watch over the flocks of the earth.
They are in His tender loving care through your arms, Karen.
Though you may seek Him and sometimes grow weary awaiting His coming,
He desires you to make yourself ready for His appearing.
Though He tarry, you must not wane,
in preparing yourself to meet Him.
He will come — “Suddenly” to get you.
He loves you, He’ll never leave you alone or forsake you.
You are His beloved and He is your.
He’s the Rose of Sharon and you’re His Rose of Karen.

Your mon and I are claiming the Lord’s blessing on you and your work in Dallas. In 1 Peter 3:9b it says in that “you were called for the very purpose that you might inherit a blessing.” In Deuteronomy 14:29a the “Lord your God may bless you in all the work of your hand which you do.” We know the Lord, Jesus Christ has called you to Dallas to minister through Christian Speaker Services and He will bless the work of your hands there in 2009, providing for your physical and emotional needs.
You are constantly in our thoughts and prayers.
Love Mom & Dad

May knowing Christ bring you more joy than you’ve ever experienced. Blessings abound in your life. You have only to close your eyes and feel Christ’s presence and know that He is blessing you with every breath. “Thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done” comforts you in times of doubt and frustrasions. Dear God, see your beautiful child, Karen. Her heart longs for your many blessings. Please, give her the knowing that all things are possible through You, dear Lord. Amen… Love, Aunt Jacque

Karen, You are a chosen generation a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; who once were not a people but are now the people of God, who had not obtained mercy but now, have obtained mercy.
Without God’s mercy, where would we be. Hebrews 1:2b says that all things are held by HIS word of His Power. We are held in His power to obtain that which he has called us. Paul did not have it easy after he went to Rome but he wrote the best of the New Testament at that time. You will look back in the future and see how God has matured you and brought you through what many could not endure. It is because YOU held on to Him and He was given the opportunity to hold on to You. May God bless the day that were born and give blessing to the destiny that He placed within you.

Bless a thing and it will bless you. Curse it and it will curse you…If you bless a situation, it has no power to hurt you, and even if it is troublesome for a time , it will gradually fade out, if you sincerely bless it. (from the book Simple Abundance) We are proud of you and send our love.

Hi Karen, I’ve met you a couple of times in person and each time you were such a kind and sincere person. I count it an honor to know you and I look forward to seeing what the Lord does with you and your business. You have a sweet spirit about you. You conduct your life and business in a God honoring way, thank you.
Blessings to you in 2009. I bet we see great things because of your love for Him and His people.

Karen, I rejoice with you as you approach your birthday. (Oh, to be so young again!) I love your sense of fun and your spiritual depth and I know the Lord smiles as He thinks of you. In fact, as I read Zephaniah 3:17 just now, I immediately thought of you: “The Lord your God is with you, he is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with singing.” Hugs across the miles, Sandra

Karen, Karen, Karen. God made you to be one of a kind. I always smile when I think about you. You know how to immediately connect with people, and show them Christ’s love. I thank you for all the blessings you have given me. (And your patience, too!) You are smart, witty, fun and have a heart the size of the state you live in! May God return to you hundredfold all the blessings that you have been apart of in others lives.

Karen, what an honor to know you as a friend, a helper, a sister. You have blessed me in so many ways and I pray God continues to bless you as you bless others!
Becky Dickenson // February 8, 2009 at 10:39 pm
Karen, I want to remind you of a portion of Scripture that we prayed over you when you moved from Albuquerque. You can stand on the Word!
Ephesians 3:14-21 “When I think of the wisdom and scope of God’s plan, I fall to my knees and pray to the Father, the Creator of everything in heaven and on earth. I pray that from his glorious, unlimited resources he will give you mighty inner strength through his Holy Spirit. And I pray that Christ will be more and more at home in your hearts as you trust in him. May your roots go down deep into the soil of God’s marvelous love. And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love really is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is so great you will never fully understand it. Then you will be filled with the fullness of life and power that comes from God.
Now glory be to God! By his mighty power at work within us, he is able to accomplish infinitely more than we would ever dare to ask or hope. May he be given glory in the church and in Christ Jesus forever and ever through endless ages. Amen.”

Dearest Karen, Dearest Friend, Devoted Follower of Jesus Christ,
It is an honor to offer a blessing on your life. On this, your 49th birthday, I ask God to shower His blessings upon you. I too, have been studying the power of blessing and wish to offer this blessing on your life.
In the Name of Jesus Christ:
I bless you with the fulfillment of God’s ordained plans for your ministry. The Lord has anointed you for very special purposes in an area of work and service to Him. He has said that you should go and bring forth fruit.
So arise, shine, and let the light and glory of the Lord come upon you. Seek the Lord and ask Him to show you clearly how and when and where to move forward in the ministry He planned for you before the foundation of the world.
Isaiah 60:1, John 15:16 Romans 10:14-15, Ephesians 4:11-12, I Peter 2:9, 2 Timothy 2:15

Here are words from your bridegroom Jesus:
“You are altogether beautiful, my darling, and there is no blemish in you.” Song of Songs 4:7
“How beautiful and delightful you are, my love, with all your charms.” Song of Songs 7:6
And this year, may your life be blessed by truly knowing:
“I am my beloved’s, and his desire is for me.” Song of Songs 7:10
Rejoicing in the beautiful woman and cherished bride God has made you.

Karen,
What a blessing you are to your family and so many other people. I pray that God will continue to bless you with a beautiful spirit, kindness, compassion, and love for your fellow man. You have many unique, God given abilities and I pray also that God will open up opportunities for you to use your abilities that are far beyond anything that you could imagine. You are a very special person who I’m proud to claim as cousin!
