This past month has been a season of serious trust and obedience. I had been putting off taking on additional responsibilities, primarily out of laziness. I knew I should have been doing more as service for church, going back to school and working with young women. I have known for a while that working with young people especially young girls was on of the calls on my life except I kept delaying it. Mel and I had an email exchange before the holidays about some changes that were about to occur in my life and while in Fl over the holidays, I received confirmation. I know the confirmation was not meant to frighten me but it was a wakeup call. I realized that I have a call on my life that’s not to be ignored. I have since started school and I can think of quite a few times this week where I walked around the house asking God for the strength and the mind to do complete the assignments. The mantra I have been using all week is “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me”. HE did not say there would not be pain but HE did promise to be there always and I have to trust HIM. I love when Beth says that Christ is never more at our sides that when HE is guiding us through the dark times. I know the journey I am on right now is not going to be smooth but I pray that I continue to be obedient and follow HIS footsteps instead of going astray.
ReplyDeleteJo, I so agree with you!! AND I too have found myself uttering the exact thing you have! "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me!!" I'm so thankful that He does and will! I didn't mention to you before Christmas that I too was considering starting back to school, because I just wasn't sure if all of the paperwork would go through. I did however, know that God wanted me back in school. So, I put my complete trust in Him and prayed that if He wanted me to start this semester, He would make it happen. I was able to get all my paperwork submited and then just had to wait for the answer. Everything went through and I was able to register for classes and begin this semester at Liberty University online in their Seminary program!! Praise God! From the moment I started the first form, to submiting the forms, to waiting, to getting accepted, to registering, and beginning the course work...it has ALL been a complete walk in faith. AND being obiedient to Him. AND taking a step of faith....after 7 years of waiting to hear the words "GO". Please pray for me to remain in the Spirit at all times and press forward and stay focused. I am praying for you for the same!
