This past year has been a hard one. We moved to a new state: Texas. My sweet husband started a new job and then another one. I became an active LLL leader again. We have met new people and made new friends.
My grandmother and grandfather passed away within 2 months of each other. I miss them. A few weeks ago while shopping at Sam's Club I saw an elderly gentleman and his mannerisms were so much like my grandpa. My heart was hurting as I remembered...
You never think of life without them. You picture your future with them in it. It's a sad photo when their images are removed.
And spiritually there have been hard challenges also. Changes in my heart and my spirit. There are alot I am not happy with but yet some...
So as I start this new year there are a few areas I want to focus..
And so Father asks the questions....
If you don't get ____________
..If I say no will you still love me? Will you still serve me and give me your life? If you don't get ...
a new job..
resolved relationships
more money
another baby
friendships
a new home
less trials
and the on the list goes..
I also want to learn to recognize Father's voice. He tells us in His word that His sheep know His voice.
So often I falter..I am not sure? Is it me or is it the Holy Spirit? Am I supposed to speak to that woman and tell her or is it just me? When I pray is the answer from you Father or is it from me?
I need clear direction and knowing His voice I believe to be the first and most important step.
There are many unresolved issues I have in regards to scripture and what's truth and what's not. So much I don't understand..so many voices telling me that this and that are truth. I need only to know what He says. (see how recognizing His voice comes into play in every area?)
What's your focus this next calendar year?
