Faith, this is the word I have chosen to focus on for 2014. Faith: the complete trust or confidence in someone or something. Do I have faith in God? Yes, I like to think I do. But do I really have complete trust in Him? I completely trust in who He is and what He has done but I still have a hard time remembering that He is in control of all things and this is what I need to work on.
For a little more then a year now we were sure we would have been moving by now. Although we didn't know where we would be we at least thought that we would be on a new adventure. But that hasn't happened and its still up in the air and starting to look like we will be here for a while longer. This does not make me very happy. I will be very honest, I can't stand the cold! Being from California this crazy blizzard weather we get here just doesn't do well for my soul. Now I'm not praying to go back to California but I would like to be a little closer, maybe within a days drive? My soul needs another adventure, its ready to move on. But for some reason God is allowing our family to stay here. Do I think staying here is not the best option for our family? Yes. But I need to work on my faith in God and His timing and faith that He knows better then I do what is best for our family.
To help me with this topic I will be doing a 31 day devotional study starting in February. After that, other then prayer, I am not sure what the plan is. But one thing I know for sure is that I need to have Faith, complete trust in Him.
Isaiah 6:8 Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying: “Whom shall I send, And who will go for Us?” Then I said, “Here am I! Send me.”
Oh, I am praying for you now...I resonate with this prayer for your family. May the Lord grow you as you trust in His provision and ground you in FAITH! Many blessings to you. PS I'm so glad I stopped by. I return comments whenever I can :)
