How is God moving in your life? This was a lot harder for me to answer than I initially thought it would be. I read the verses over and over, and attempted to truly "see" how God is working.
This weekend I was at the "Women of Joy" conference and heard a lot of great speakers and musicians. I had some wonderful fellowship time with 7 other women, reflecting on our lives, relationships, etc. It was a great experience for me and I learned a lot from these women and the conference. One of the most important moments of the weekend, was when I was driving home with Margie and I confided to her that I don't know when the Lord is speaking to me, or if it's just my own voice telling me what I want to hear. It is hard for me to determine and I question myself constantly. The reason that this moment was so important to me was because she confessed to me that she is sometimes the same way. It put my heart at ease a little to know that I am not alone in this feeling.
Once I read the verse for today, I did that same action.....questioned myself over and over on how God is working in my life. A lot of time I truly don't know. I will attempt to share what I "think" God is doing, but as I said, I'm only guessing.
God is working in my life because my faith is becoming deeper and deeper a part of my life. I find myself asking myself daily on "WWJD" in every matter of my life. I feel my faith growing and thus my life is actually becoming harder on the outside of my faith.
God is working in my life because my outer relationships are being tried and I am having to defend my faith more and more to those closest to me. I am praying for Brian, Tawni, and others in my family to truly become Christians and accept the Lord as their savior, but as I pray for this more and more, it seems that they are getting further and further away from Him. I know that this is God working because being saved is NOT an easy process and is not just someone's prayer being answered.
God is working in my life because my thoughts of my future have totally changed since becoming a Christian. I was always looking for when my life would "start". I was always waiting for something, but I didn't know that what I was waiting for, was to become a Christian. Now that I have given my life to the Lord, I am no longer waiting for "whatever", it is here. HE is here.
Well, I've shared some of how God is working in my life. How is he working in yours?
God Bless and more tomorrow.

One of the ways God is working in my life is that he has sent Lori Clark into my life to challenge my viewpoint and my assumptions and my attachment to security. (so I guess you could say that one of the ways God is working in YOUR life is that God is using you to reach others in new and profound ways)
ReplyDeleteGod is working in my life in all sorts of other ways as well, but probably one of the more profound ways is that he is convicting me and my household that we are to be more missional. We don't yet know what all that looks like, but we know we are know are supposed to be a missional family with missional parents and missional kids. We know we're not there.
