How often we keep looking past His word and missing the huge blessing He is offering us if we'll only sit still, know that He is God and remain in His will. That is a huge lesson that took me years to learn in my heart. I had the head knowledge. Just didn't want to bend my stiff neck, so to speak.Refreshment in Refugehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05109290647409291383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14059117.post-1129408715343607672005-10-15T15:38:00.000-05:002005-10-15T15:38:00.000-05:00Nothing is more joyful than being in God's will. B...Nothing is more joyful than being in God's will. But what we do is say to our Father...this is what I want done...please bless it. When He says "no" we go off in a huff and complain that God has not revealed what His will is. Like the hymn says "Trust and obey...for there is not other way to be happy in Jesus, but to trust and obey."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14059117.post-1129404918506570492005-10-15T14:35:00.000-05:002005-10-15T14:35:00.000-05:00Excellent Jer, you got it!So many times we are so ...Excellent Jer, you <I>got</I> it!<BR/><BR/>So many times we are so caught up in the things we <I>want</I> to do or the things we think we want to do that we are blind to the still small voice!<BR/><BR/>I got it a long time ago, but I didn't want to hear it. I wanted to write fiction and I may still get to write it, but I know God wants me to write grants. Because this is what He wants me to do, He will send me the people He wants to use me and He will provide my needs. It isn't glamorous and it won't make me rich. But, how can those things compare to being within the will of God?Refreshment in Refugehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05109290647409291383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14059117.post-1129354489178671962005-10-15T00:34:00.000-05:002005-10-15T00:34:00.000-05:00I have a big smile on my face....you know why?God ...I have a big smile on my face....you know why?<BR/><BR/>God has answered your prayer...however you are too busy to see it. <BR/><BR/>I make the same mistake...God has to wack me with a 2x4 to even see that He answered...and there I am already in the midst of the ministry I had been praying to Him to show me.<BR/><BR/>Go over your post...then find the theme running trough it...the answer is there...you just need some perspective.
