Do The Things God's Put on Your Heart


Do The Things God's Put on Your Heart:

"If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him." (James 1:5)

Good morning all! What a lovely day God has given us! I wanted to let you all know that for the next three days (Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday), I will be posting my daily devotionals/daily VRSLY later in the day. This is because my schedule is going to be quite different due to a Jack Hayford intensive conference I'll be attending.

This is why I saved this VRSLY for today. As a writer and learning enthusiast, I am always looking to acquire new wisdom. I love to glean from other seasoned learners. However, I tend to be very comfortable in my day to day schedule. This can cause a bit of an issue seeing as most all events that occur will throw off a perfectly planned and particular schedule.

This intensive is something I've only dreamt of being able to attend, so when the opportunity to go arose, my God-given passion screamed yes. On the other hand, worry and fear nagged at me, and tried to make me back out.

"For God has not given us a spirit of fearfulness, but one of power, love, and sound judgment." (2 Timothy 1:7)

God is calling me to step into a new level of wisdom and understanding, and that's exactly what I've been seeking. So, for three days, I'm pretty sure a discombobulated schedule will be just fine. God will provide, protect, and guide me. I know for sure, because He always does!

You know, this is one of "those things" I've always wanted to do. So just like the picture says, I'm going to do it. Time to shove fear and stress aside, and just jump in.

Lord, I open up this heart of mine, come and set a fire in my soul. In me there blazes a burning hunger for more of You. Your goodness, glory, and wisdom. Oh Father, I turn to You in humble expectation.

"Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it will be opened." (Matthew 7:7-8)

So my friends, I'll be in a different corner of your timelines for the rest of this week. We are all called to journey out of our comfort zones from time to time. I just can't wait to explore these doors the Lord has opened in my life. Be blessed, each and every one of you.

Faith That He is Near Always

   One, of many things, for which I am very  grateful, is that the Lord is always near me. He is never far away. I can call on Him through prayer, and He will always listen. He genuinely cares for what I am worried about. No prayer is too small or unimportant, because we are God's children and He loves us all.    Call upon the Lord in times of need, and in times of joyfulness. He wants to commune with us. He desires our yearning for His presence. When we're longing for that "something more" He is the One that can satisfy. He is gentle and loving. He wants to be with you more than you can even imagine.    "The Lord is near to all who call upon Him, To all who call upon Him in truth." ( Psalm 145:18 ) It pleases Him when we reach out to Him in desperation. Because He is The Creator of all things that exist, when He is our passionate desire, When He is the One thing we need , that's when we are complete. That is when we have peace, joy, and abundant life.

I Loved You at Your Darkest

I Loved You at Your Darkest: "While he was still speaking, a bright cloud enveloped them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased. Listen to him!” When the disciples heard this, they fell facedown to the ground, terrified. But Jesus came and touched them. “Get up,” he said. “Don't be afraid.” When they looked up, they saw no one except Jesus." (Matthew 17:5-8) In the first few verses of Matthew chapter seventeen, Jesus led Peter, James, and John up to a mountain top. It was just the four of them, or so the disciples thought. Whilst they were walking Jesus was "transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became white as light." (Matthew 17:2) Today, this passage is really speaking to me. I feel like the Lord is using this passage as a reminder that sometimes we must fall "facedown on the ground" in complete awe of His glory and surrender to His mysterious yet miraculous ways. A
