Involved

I know it has been a long time since I have done this so HERE WE GO!!!!! Ok so at this moment in my life God is testing my faith in a new way. I know that we always need to be stretched or we get complacent. I really have been blessed by how God is allowing things that I know I have been praying for so long to happen, are happening. YAY!!!! Thank you Jesus. Just small things like getting an unexpected opportunity to spend some time with old friends. Its amazing to get to play with little children who love you just because of who you are. I love that! It is just such a blessing to be able to see how amazing God is and how involved He desires to be in our daily lives. I am learning more how to allow him to be apart of everything I do and including him in my life. I am just so blessed to be in this place at this time. I love Him for wanting to be apart of it all. I desire to bring him more and more in my daily activities. Maybe that is something we need to ask him about, what does he desire to be more involved in with us all the time? I sure hope that He reveals that to me. I love it that He desires more from me. I love that He wants to know me more. I love that He chose me to do this work and that He wants me to minister to others. Thank you Jesus that you have given me this opportunity to show you others. I love it!!! Thank you Jesus!!!!

Perseverance vs. Endurance

Image
Endurance is something I normally associate with sports, but really in the bible endurance is something that is to wait out the storm to wait it out and know that things will change. Waiting for things to change but just sitting back and riding out the storm. I have endured a lot of things but what does that really show about my character? Nothing except that I know how to wait things out sometimes. That I can sit back and ride the wave, or have a bit of patience for things to change. Although endurance is good in sports and beneficial when you need to wait on something, it isn't what defines character. It isn't what makes good stories. Who wants to sit and listen to someone tell you a story about them sitting and waiting for things to change, who wants to tell a story like that? I sure don't. When I tell a story I want it to be a good story but Epic stories like the Titanic come from something other than endurance. If those people on the boat would have done nothing but en...

Warring further still...

Knowing that this season in my life is where it should be is probably easier to accept, than for me to accept the truths of what God Himself has spoken to me about the future. I will tell you that what I am walking through is difficult and hard, but what God has spoken to me is even harder. Not because it will be painful, although I am sure it will be at times, but because of the reality and gravity of what it is. I am in a season of prepping, I believe, in my life for the next season of living out what I know God has said. He has given me direction in many areas of my life and yet I am in this waiting game. Tonight I was reminded that as Jesus had the cross before Him, those hours in the garden right before were necessary. He needed to go and seek the face of His Father. He needed to go further still. (Matt. 26:38-39) He wrestled with the dread for the task He was about to undertake. I know that God isn't asking us to take on all the sins of the world for all the ages ever to be, ...

1 Thes. 5:16-18

"Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus." 1 Thes. 5:16-18 NIV How simple are these three verses and yet we think that there is so much more we need to do, for us to be in God's will. We take them in and let them out so easily. As if God CAN'T want something so simple, He is a BIG God and so He MUST want something BIG. This is a lie. We run around in circles trying to figure out the will of God and yet we can't seem to find it because we are looking in the WRONG direction. We hear God, We MOVE, and then leave God in the dust because He made a turn and we didn't hear him because we didn't STOP and ask. God doesn't change, His plans for us don't change, YET we seem to think that He is the one that changes when we head in the wrong direction. We blame Him for ditching us and not telling us when to move, when REALLY it is us who didn't stop and ask for a new direction....
