Today is the last day of 2011. The completion of another year and this New Year's Resolution. I spent the last half hour of 2011 (and a few minutes into 2012) in prayer and just talking with the Lord.
It is amazing the wonderful things that He will share with us if we are willing to listen. His hopes, His designs, His plans. I was sharing with a young lady yesterday about how, if we are willing, God will talk with us like we talk with each other. He is that friend who is closer than a brother. I was sitting down to lunch and felt this intense bout of loneliness all by myself in this house (Something I would normally cherish!) Then I thought that there is no reason that I should eat lunch by myself. I invited the Lord to sit down and have lunch with me. His response: "It's been quite awhile."
She asked me, "Do you mean that He talks just like you and I talk." Yes. That is what I mean. He is just longing for someone to listen...
I think I just got my answer... I had been asking God, as this year and this blog have come to a close... what to do in 2012? I think I will make time each day to stop and listen to Him. I think I will continue to post it on here as a way to keep me accountable. (If I don't write for a couple of days I have some ladies that come after me! LOL) I hope that what I do is pleasing to Him. I know that this will be a great adventure in my walk with Him. I pray that everyone has an awesome adventure with God this year!
