WISDOM PEARL

 WISDOM PEARL


Our greatest need for courage is when we don't follow our own path of logic but turn our feet to follow Him!

We are always charged (tasked with or told) to not. be hearers of His Word but doers as well!

Doers don't follow their "mind" but GOD's leading.

Our fondest desire should be to hear God; know what His Will desires and to listen for His tender whispers.

Irony keeps us right where we need to be: in a constant state of humility, realizing our imperfection and fragility, so, that we may be of better use to the Master.

Remember, GOD operates outside of you, so just because you can't see it (fathom, express or believe) doesn't mean it is not happening!

Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever!

Is it wise to reject something you simply because you don't know about it? It's outside your comfort zone or maybe it doesn't fit in your present level of experience?

Then one should ask is objectivity a word not meant to be practiced? 

Hears a thought: weigh through God's lens (His Word) before one passes judgement and be better for it.

Time was a structure for our benefit, not a limitation for GOD! 

He always is, will be and was at the same time. Ever Present! The Great I AM

Jeremiah 32:27 

"I am the LORD, the GOD  of all mankind. Is there anything too hard for me?"

SURRENDERED CONFESSION....

 SURRENDERED CONFESSION


I get so caught up in the now. So wrapped in the end-game, attainment of a goal, the finishing point; that I am blind in my efforts and activities. 

With my vision fully obscured, willfully I trudge forward never pausing long enough to hear the Lord or feel His gentle urgings. 

Yet, I am always surprised to realize that once again I have lost myself. I run from resting and doubt how the little of an effort can affect the big. I rush past the beauty of growth, seeking temporary fulfillment in that week's "thing". The focus of my pursuit. Not realizing that there will always be a "thing".

Stagnation can occur with much movement and activity because despite the energy exerted, I am not going anywhere. Now, at 51 (the time this entry was penned in my journal), I choose something different. To wait, listen and be still (in my spirit) and grow.

Isaiah 40:31
"but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary they will walk and not faint."  (NIV, Zondervan)
