I am Tina Malone, a child of God who desires to encourage women to draw close and trust our Heavenly Father through our Lord Jesus Christ, by seeking a relationship with His precious Holy Spirit.  The word Makarios is the Greek word in the New Testament that means blessed.  I found it in the “Beatitudes”.  I was trying to find the right attitude for what I was going through in my life at that moment.  I am implying that I did not feel blessed. I was hurt, angry, disappointed and more.  It was not a blessed place in the physical realm.  I could not see or imagine where I was blessed.   As I walked through some difficult years and sought God daily and I mean a loud… Where are you? I can’t find you? I don’t see you! kind of seeking.  God was there, faithfully blessing me in the midst of it all.  I was blessed by His design.  He orchestrated people and circumstances that encouraged me and showed me the way.  It’s just a few words that I have written here to describe to you where I was, but years hold what is meant in these few sentences.  God did bless me and He is still blessing me.  I want you to know that He has blessed you, He is blessing you now and He is going to bless you.  It is His design to do so!
