Thankful Thursday
Today I am so very thankful for the "awe" moments in life. For months I have
been standing in faith and waiting on the Lord. Waiting on his guidance, direction, answered prayer.
While waiting we go through so many different phases. At first we question "WHY" something
happened? How it happened? What could I have done differently to change the out come? Many times we are saddened by the situation. At times angry. Other times just at a lose for words.
I know during some of these seasons in my life I have cried out to God - Why must I wait Lord. If the situation isn't ever going to change - please Lord, release me. Bring me to something new or at least remove the PAIN...... You all know what I'm talking about. We have all been there.
BUT - then there are times when you have waited and waited and you get one small glimmer of hope! One glimpse of the Lord moving and working in your situation. You still don't know the final outcome.
You still don't know that he will answer yes.
BUT YOU HAVE THAT HEART KNOWLEDGE THAT "WOW, GOD REALLY DOES WORK FOR OUR GOOD!"
Romans 8:28
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
Today I can honestly say that God has me in "AWE" mode just knowing that he loves his Sons and Daughters in such an amazing way that he truely is working together for each and every one of his children to bring us to that place of total dependency upon him and the realization that I don't want my own way any longer. My desire has become his desire. I always thought that I couldn't give up control of my life - what if he would never give me what my heart truly wanted!
What peace I have this day knowing that I now desire his way far above my own and it is so
simple. ALL OF A SUDDEN - He is filling my heart with bliss as I see him directing my path and keeping it brightly lit as I seek him with my whole heart!
Be blessed regardless of your circumstance!!!
