Following means obeying God's call for our family and taking the next step even when it is not spelled out. - Julie @ Breezy Acres Farm
Ugh. Right.
Julie and her hubby, Ian are lovely people that challenge me each week to grow. As friends, they truely show us what it looks like to seek fully after God's call for their lives. And that little blurb from their blog this week, reminded me again what that looks like.
So, I have recently been having a little pity party for myself (never a good idea, but it's really easy to get stuck in one). I won't go into details, but rather than reaching out and leaning on Jesus, I have been having a pity party.
Not cool.
"even when it's not spelled out..." that's really what gets me. so even though my plan isn't working out, i have to remember that God has plans for me. it may feel like this...
i can totally feel Dorothy's delima here...you have to make some choices, but you really want to be way down the path. you know, over the hills and through the woods (if you don't mind my mixed metaphor.)
Dorothy finds guidance in the form of a lovely new friend, the scarecrow. but luckily, i have a way, way better guide, i just have to remember to ask him.
so instead of having a pity party, i am going to try to embrace what i have right now and learn from the truths that i know.
we sang this on Sunday and I was really able to clearly hear the message for the first time.
Hungry, I come to You
For I know You satisfy
I am empty but I know
Your love does not run dry
Chorus:
So I wait for You
So I wait for You
so this is me waiting...:)
