Today!!!

Just now I was on the computer and God was speaking to me while I was reading other people's blogs. I knew God was big. I knew He worked in others lives all the time, but why wasn't He working in mine. Now I know why I didn't think He was working in mine. It's because I wasn't letting Him. God is working so very much in my life now that I'm letting Him.


I was reading other's blogs, and I realized that He is working in so many people's lives right now, and not just mine. I got a little teary when I was reading Lauren's blog, because God is working in her life and God is talking to her, close to the same way he is talking to me.


Lauren's post was very encouraging, because I have been thinking the same thing some, and God (through Lauren) pointed it out to me again. I never thought of it the way Lauren put it and that was extremely helpful. God is so amazing, big, huge, loving, indescribable, and things I (and nobody else) has ever thought of (and never will.)


Thank you God for all you do for me.






Here is the post Lauren wrote (if you haven't already read it)






Forgiven!

I have been struggling the past few days. It seems like when I do something wrong I think in my mind that I cannot be forgiven. I know in my heart how untrue that is but I allow myself to believe the lies of satin. When I do this it seems as though I continue to fail. I know the reason for this is because if you believe that you have not hope of forgiveness then you allow yourself to believe there is no need to walk free of sin.


I went on a walk tonight. It was good for me. I needed time to walk and talk with my savior. He so lovely reminded me that my sins are forgiven and they are remembered no more. I must press forward and continue on. Yes, I should learn from my mistakes but not live in the burden and depression that they bring. I am redeemed! I am forgiven! I must press forward!


So, pressing forward is what I will do! I have learned how very weak my flesh is. I knew this already but I am reminded of it again. I am purposing, by the power of Christ, to walk free from my sin!


I feel a burden removed form me. It is not like this is the first time that I experienced this but it is like it is new again.


Thank you Lord for your forgiveness!
