So I am really far behind on blogging and keeping you all updated with some of the things that are going on here in Fresnillo. I plan on getting it together next week after I get some sleep. I got back from going to Nuevo Vallarta with my family this morning at 4:30 AM after a nice long 14 hour bus ride :) Gotta love it!
While I get my act together, I found some thoughts that I had put together from a couple years ago about what the Lord was teaching me and after reading them saw that they still apply now and continue to encourage me.
-It makes me wonder if we don’t wish God was a genie who could deliver a few wishes here and there. And that makes me wonder if what we really want from the formulas are wishes, not God. It makes me wonder if what we really want is control, not a relationship.
-It makes me wonder if God created us in His image or if we created Him in ours.
-God has placed me here for a purpose and He will equip me to finish it.
You and I were created to need each other. Certainly God does not need people in the way you and I do, but He feels a joy at being loved and He feels a joy at delivering love. It is a striking thought to realize that in paradise, a human is incomplete without a host of other people. We are relational indeed. God made me, He knows me, He understands me and He wants community.
-God’s word pierces, but does not discourage.
-God opens doors that no man can shut.
-Shut the door of unbelief in obedience to God.
-Give God back time.
-Sometimes we need to fast those things that keep us from the presence of God.
