I have been really struggling this week.
Been questioning God about what I am doing with my life. I am struggling with more why questions and "how could you God.....you frustrate me !" I am also on the quest for what I want... is it really meant to be or I am chasing rainbows? I am realizing my soul is totally out of peace and haven't really stopped to rest and just put down the load I am carrying.
I ended up emailing a new friend who I met while I was overseas. She was a Godsend and had great wisdom.
Her wise words of counsel that I wanted to share were this..
"Stop having more confidence in the enemies ability to deceive you than faith in God's ability to bless you!
Profound huh!
Honestly I am not really ready to do much more then blog about this and go back to watching my Parenthood Episode.
But I am praying that Father God would speak to me and that I would desire above all else to put him first...
That is wise counsel, mind sharing who said it or are you wanting to keep it private?
ReplyDeleteI love your honesty, even the going back to wtching tv. I told someone recently something similar - i recognized something that needed to change but wasn't yet willing or able to do the work to change it. We'll get there!
My friend Tando that I met on the Zimpeto base said this. She is a blessing. Thanks Laura I know we will. Waiting sucks though! LOL We sang a great song in Church this morning that really blessed me- Our God by Chris Tomlin.... and if our God is for us then who can ever stop us? And if our God is with us then what can stand against?
