Recently, I have tried to not get wrapped up in "wanting to get more done". I noted that when in that mode, I keep so busy that though my heart cries out to spend quiet time in conversation with The Lord, I am striving to get things done, thinking that once they are done, I'll be able to rest. On the contrary, I know that there will always be things to do, and once the things I'm doing now are done, other things will need to be acomplished. And now, we must remember to take time to rest, regardless of a situation, as the Lord has commanded (Exodus 35:2).

In similarity, today I wanted to look at some cell phone plans, thinking that having a cell phone plan with more minutes, as opposed to my current pre-paid phone, would make things easier. I felt The Lord telling me that this is not for me, and I did not listen. I realised after a few minutes of disobeying Him, that truly, it would only make me more busy. Oh, how wonderful it is to be still, and in Peace!

What Joy it is to know that God knows best! Praise be to You, my God!

God's awesome, wonderful work!

Here is an excerpt from an email that a co-worker has sent to me:   “ What church do you and your wife go to? I have been thinking alot lately about going to church. I have never really attended church and don't know much about the bible. But I have a desire to know. I feel strange just waltzing into a church and being lost.”   How awesome is the work of the Lord! And that we can take part in it! Woah! Alleluja!
Amazing! We came to church today, and Jessica was feeling down. During the sermon, which was about faith, a statement was said by the pastor about not dwelling on the past, nor "what if's". In this statement, God had put on the pastor's heart to say a series of "if we had only..." statements, and one of them was "Do not say, 'if we had only stayed in Texas, things would be different'..." As the pastor said this, Jessica and I looked at each other, as we could relate :) Allow Peace and Love to dwell in you!

To work on time

I had the intention of leaving to work on time this morning, but I left late because the freezing rain last night froze my door shut, and windows required heavy scraping. I was able to get in the car after some prying, and scraped a "hole" big enough to see ahead of me through the windshield (not best practice). After asking the Lord for help in getting to work on time, I arrived safely, and with a minute to spare :) Praise God!
