DO NOT LEAVE ME ALONE!!!

Lord, use me.  A prayer I've prayed a million times.  But lately I've been doing some soul searching, or rather God has been telling me about myself. (Don't you love when he does that.)  I've always wanted to be used by God greatly.  I've said that I've surrendered all, sang the song a million times, and just turn around to pick up all the junk I've laid on the alter for the 15th time that month and try to figure out this "surrendered" life I'm supposed to lead.  I've tried to map out how he can use me, where he can use me, and what he will have me doing.  Well let me just tell you folks, my head has been stuck in the sand for many years.  Now don't get me wrong, I've always wanted what God wanted for me and although I've put up a fight for a few things, I usually give in, hang my head like a little girl, and say "You were right all along and I should have listened the first time."  Why do us girls always try to figu...

For those "In the Waiting"

Matthew 6:25-34 I've always read this chapter thinking that God doesn't want me to worry about material things. But today I read it a bit differently. He will provide my EVERY need, my heart's desire, He will stay true to His promises  BUT He may have you wait! It will sometimes lead to what I like to call as Holy Frustration.  Knowing that the waiting is part of His will for your life, but still, because we're human, leads to us being impatient at times and getting frustrated at His timing. BUT GOD ALWAYS COMES THROUGH! This is my testimony. My family. My husband and my children.  I call them my miracles from God. God had me wait for all of it. But it was so worth it. You see, I didn't get married in my 20's like all my other friends.  And let me tell you, the waiting was hard. It was trying, it was lonely, and it was exactly what I needed, but didn't want. In the waiting, He taught me so much: His love fo...

It's Not that Complicated

I think we overcomplicate living for Jesus sometimes.   I woke up this morning saying this to myself.   Like literally, opened my eyes and this was running in my head.   I'm an over thinker, and over analyzer, and over explainer.  I always have been and that has been a hinderance to me so many times.  Jesus is teaching me to just be.  Live for Him, speak to Him, walk in Him, and let Him work where He needs to work. Living for God isn't complicated. We make it complicated.   We feel like we need to fully understand all the mysteries of our Father and be perfect little human beings before we can accomplish anything in Him.  We try to "do" our way to his heart.  If we pray this amount, He will pick me. If we work this hard, He will approve of me. If we take out or add XYZ to my life, then He will accept me. We have it backwards. Because He loves me, I want to talk to Him. Because He loves me, I want to work for His Kingdom. Because He loves me, ...
