This morning I woke up and realized that I didn't write yesterday's blog which makes two days in row that I didn't get on here and write. So while I was in the bathroom this morning I was talking with the Lord about what was going on. Immediately I knew that I needed to repent. I asked the Lord what my deal was. His response, "Arrogance." That was not what I expected.
Arrogance, really?!!?! really?!?!!? Then it hit me... I was not being a good steward of the task that God gave me at the beginning of this year. Immediately I repented and I am making it right now. Obedience is so important to God. He even says in the Word that obedience is more important than sacrifice.
God, Please Help Me to Be Obedient. Father, forgive me for not being obedient to doing what You have given me to do. I am grateful that You have trusted me with this.
By the way, I did get to pray with someone yesterday. My daughter has grown up without knowing her father. Her dad and I split up when she was 10 mos old and our divorce was finalized two years later. She has only seen him 3 or 4 times in the last 8 years of her life and it has been a consistent source of sadness for her. Because of the training that we have received at church I was able to teach her how to talk to Jesus about the issues and ask HIM what the truth about the situation with her dad was. Through what God told her within 20 minutes she had complete peace about the situation.
She liked talking to Jesus so much she asked if she could do it again tonight. As I tucked her in tonight, she was talking to Jesus and playing in the sand with Him as she fell asleep instead of crying herself to sleep. Priceless!!!
I serve a GREAT BIG GOD!!!
