Waiting Wednesday

I think Wednesday is a good day to talk about waiting.  Because I believe we're all waiting for something.  Some of us are just waiting for the end of the week and Wednesday is "hump day".  Others of us might be waiting to see if an opportunity is going to come through.  Some of us might be awaiting some test results that have us nervous.  Some might be simply waiting for a phone call from that special someone.  And you just don't know if they are going to call. Whatever you're waiting for, keep in mind that according to the scripture below, your days are in God's hands.

Psalm 139:16
Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, The days fashioned for me, When as yet there were none of them.

 As you wait, please know that God has the power to bless you and no man can take that away.  He will command others to bless you, without them even knowing it.

Deuteronomy 28:8
The Lord will command the blessing on you in your storehouses and in all to which you set your hand, and He will bless you in the land which the Lord your God is giving you.

God commands the blessing to come forth; please believe that, as you "wait".  As you approach "hump day", take some time to consider that your days are not in the hands of anybody but God.  No doctor, no person, no disease, no debt ; only God 's hands.  Your days are not in the hands of your employer or even your spouse.  Your days are not in the hands of your children, your neighbors, your friends, or your customers.  Your days are in the hands of God.  And you can trust Him, if you will trust Him.  Please take some time to think about the fact that God alone can "command" the blessing on you in every area of your life.  Are you waiting for your marriage to get better?  God can command the blessing on your marriage.  Are waiting for your finances to get better?  God can command the blessing on your finances.  Are you waiting for your health to get better?  God can command the blessing on your health.   Are you waiting for you children to get better?  God can command the blessing in your children's life.  Are you waiting for your job to get better?  God can command the blessing on you in your job.  Are you waiting for your business to grow?  God can command the blessing on your business.  Are you waiting to get a job?  God can command the blessing on you in your job search.  Yes whatever you are waiting for, it is in the hands of God and He can command that blessing on whatever you are waiting for.  God bless.

Starting your day

When I begin my day with a fast pace and a mind to "get things done" it really never ends well.  I burn out pretty fast.  When I take a "rest stop" at the very beginning of my day with God and linger a little, the day always goes better.  Micah 7:7 says: Therefore I will look to the LORD;       I will wait for the God of my salvation;       My God will hear me.  It seems as if when I don't start my day with God a cycle of self-dependence starts and it never ends well.  When I start my day with God, dependence on Him starts my day and He reminds me during morning devotional time to lean on Him to get through the day.  It helps me to not get "caught up"  I pray that for today, that I don't get caught up.  Noah is home from school, not feeling very well.  I just want to lean on God and trust Him to bring her comfort and help her to heal today.  I'm praying that I to would...

Liberty in parenting

Today I had a couple situations arise where  I sensed that The Lord was speaking to me.  I am a full-time stay-at-home mom and it's been almost 7 years.  One of the things I have been praying a lot about during those years is the bondage that can form for myself in this particular station in life.  When your kids have so much access to you all the time, it is hard to know how much to give.  You struggle with guilt and uncertainty.  This starts with nourishment when a baby is born.  One of the concerns I have heard from every mom of a newborn I have ever spoken with, including myself, is whether or not the baby is getting enough food.  Are they getting full??  This is the beginning of motherhood.  It becomes a defining factor in everything you do.  The first sense I got that God was speaking to me was this morning.  My 2 yr old son bugs me to play with him every morning while I am trying to eat and do my devotional.  So as ...

Think before you defend yourself

I get on social media and I do my best not to be critical of anyone.  It's not my place.  I do find it kind of interested how personal relationships, insecurities, and hurts are expressed where the whole world can see.  Social media is like this enigma that continues to spark my interest.  I find myself asking "why would he/she share something so deep and personal with people who don't know them or even care?".  I don't necessarily think it's a bad thing.  I just find myself being very curious and intrigued about why? There is one trend I see, on social media, that sparks a bit of concern.  The amount of time we spend defending ourselves and our decisions on social media.  I get concerned because I realize that when we spend a "noticeable" amount of time defending ourselves publicly, it is a strong indication that their is a much bigger private battle going on within .  Social media speaks volumes to me about inner battles we go through. ...
