Psalm 37 The steps of the godly are directed by the LORD. He delights in every every detail of their lives. Though they stumble, they will not fall, for the LORD holds them by the hand. Dont be inmpatient for the LORD to act! Travel steadily along his path. He will honor you, giving you the land.


listening to the prayers of some brothers in Christ yesterday really provoked my heart. why wasnt i crying out to God like they were, what happened that my prayers have become so shallow, why is it that i have allowed so many other things to get in the way, why is it that my first thought is not on God when i get out of bed, i remember when this was a reality in my life but lately that has not been true. and its probably the reason the other night i needed to hear God say He loves me through the audible words of Kristian because i was not strong enough to fight off the lies the enemy was trying to feed me. How does this happen how can you know truth in your head and then find it almost impossible to live it out in your life. its when you are not connected. when you are not loving God with all your heart, soul and mind. when you are not focusing all your attention on loving God and loving your neighbor. it happens when you are in the midst of one of the most lost countries in the world and lose sight that God CAN do the impossible and start listening to the deceiver tell you that nothing you are doing matters that your efforts are hopeless and that it will take centuries for God to move in people that are so content because the government provides everything for them that they cant see their need for a Saviour. i can see now just the darkeness that has been surrounding me but there is hope and i praise God for His way of breaking through and reaching down into the water and pulling me out of this floating numbness. its a scary place to be but i am so thankful for using His children to speak truth into my life and once again communicating his immeasurable love for me. about a year ago i had a dream one night that kristian my husband and i were walking in a forest when all of a sudden i found a little pond where all these people were being held under the water. they were alive but had to be set free. so without a thought kristian dove into start freeing all these people and i remember standing on the edge hesitating a bit. but then i jumped in too and starting setting them free. i have never had a dream like this before and i havent since then but lately i think i have been the one that needed to be set free by Gods truth. the truth that God loves me unconditionally just as i am and i can do absolutely NOTHING to make HIM love me more or less. He sent his Son for goodness sake to die so we could be made free. this is what i have been forgetting the awe of the rescuing message of our amazing God. the wonder and amazement that lies in this story. and that we cannot rescue others if we ourselves have not been rescued first. God did the rescuing of our souls first but if we fall back in the water because of choosing to spend time watching tv instead of connecting with our God or choosing to sleep and extra hour instead of getting up and taking a walk or run outside with God, or looking to our friends, boyfriends, husbands,wives to fill that soul connection we are longing for that is when we become just like all the others waiting to be set free in the pond. This is why today I am praising God for the truth from Psalm 37 That though we stumble we will not fall for the LORD holds them by the hand. He is the one who lifts us out of the water to new life in Him. He never lets go of us. And that if we are loving God He will direct every step and DELIGHT IN EVERY DETAIL OF OUR LIVES. In Him my heart delights. Period
