Hello Friends,

My heart is overjoyed at the goodness and completeness of God. You may be struggling today with wondering if God sees you or hears you.  But I have good news, He does.  It may look like things are spiraling out of control or that things are simply just staying the same but rest assured that Jesus is still on the throne and He is fully in control.  God is always working for your good and His glory.

It seems both odd and horrible to let you in on a truth of my heart and life.  It isn’t my finest actions but perhaps you too will learn from my mistakes.  I have wrestled with God for a while now.  Like Jacob I needed answers from God but unlike Jacob when it got difficult to hang on or tiring to wait, I let go of the pursuit of God’s answers and remained content with all the other answers I had and with the normal relationship I shared with Jesus.  I wasn’t in the horse weeds or contemplating anything wrong. I was trying to discern what God wanted me to do next.  But as He would begin to speak to me about things I didn’t want to do or didn’t seem equipped to do, instead of hanging on and pursuing Him more intensely, I backed away.  I let my logic, pride, and fleshly desires convince me that I was doing what God wanted in a particular situation because He had not told me to do otherwise.

The truth was that I wasn’t listening and honestly was unwilling to sit down and have a true conversation with God and let Him be God and me be His child.  I would shut His voice out by keeping mine going.  I abandoned the practice of being still and letting Him be God for the more comfortable position of delaying a decision based on my strategic plan that I had not heard the answer from God.

So, my friend if you are seeking answers make sure you are making space for God to answer.  Make sure you are listening because you can be sure that He is talking; He has a plan and it is a good one; and that He is equipping you to do what He has called you to do and is asking you to do.  Remember you are loved.  Jesus loves you.

In His Service
