Well I did repond on Monday and my silly computer would not allow me to log in and everything was erased. SOOO.........let's try again.
ReplyDeleteThis challenge is certainly becoming a habit, if I forget to reset, which happens, I almost always am looking for the beeper within 2 hours and reset, so this is good.
I had a similar story to Stephanie's about running into someone. Last week as things shaped my morning I did not get out to run errands when I wanted too, the phone rang, the laundry needed to be changed,the dishwasher was full, so I was running about 45min. off "my schedule". as I made my short stops and ended up at the supermarket I ran smack dab into this person I had been praying about seeing for some months now. It was a bit awkward, but immediately I sensed the Holy Spirit encourage me to strike up the conversation and not just let an awkward "hi" be the end all. As we talked and shared about how much had happened since we last spoke it felt like old times. I was able to encourage and be encouraged as well. I shared how good God has been to both my husband and myself in our careers as well as how our kids were doing and give all the glory to God. It could've been a difficult situation, but as I walked away seriosuly my alarm went off and the inaudible voice of God spoke to my soul, "You are right on time today". The rest of my day was light and springy. I sometimes forget it isn't my time, it's His.
How's it going, you ask? Well, I'm definitely feeling pressed, but good things are happening. God is in control and has His own space-time continuum! Why do I expect things to go my way, according to my timeline? Why do I doubt God has things under control? I should stop being a control-freak!
ReplyDeleteThere are days I am so bogged down with life and the stresses of, that it feels when my alarm goes off and I start praying that I'm just speaking words into the air...going nowhere. Silly me, because what may seem like hours have gone by before God speaks to me or answers my prayer is in reality done at that moment.
ReplyDeleteI have been too focused on my false gods to hear the One True God. I will work this week and however long it takes me to recognize what I am putting before God, writing it down in WORD (the little card that says "God > _________" just wasn't big enough), giving it over to God and then wait to hear from Him.
I look forward to the changes that will be coming because it will be better than who I have become lately.
This 60/60 challenge has been and still is a wonderful experience.
