Have you ever had one of those weeks or days when you just have the little thoughts in your heads that you think about and that you might even pray about when you get home if you can remember them after a long day? I've had a lot of those this week and it is just the start of it. What is neat about it is everyone of them are thoughts I can and want to do and right now looks possible. I just have to remember to pray more deeply about them. I'll tell you the little thoughts that I have had these past few weeks and then tell you what has happened.
One thought and this was the first one was that I wanted to keep looking at the boundaries in the Bible but my Bible study about Boundaries is over. It is one of those things where it seems interesting but you know you need the accountabity to keep doing it. I thought or God put the thought of some girls in my mind that I could do it with and it could be turned into a small Bible study group. I have 3 girls in mind and I've asked everyone of them so we'll see. It would be neat if I could get that started, even if it was with one out of the 3 girls or every so often with all 3. I've been wanting to lead or start a Bible study by myself for about a half a year now at the most.
Then this weekend things were going on at church that made me thinking how I wanted to be able to share The Word with other people, more or less, international people and see lives changed. While I was sitting in the park this morning, this international lady came up and started talking to me. She loves writing and taking pictures like I do. We traded phone numbers and went on our way. It is a God moment because I haven't been at the park for so long and I just decided to go last night when I wake up because it helps me to calm down before the day starts. I hope and pray I can get a real friendship out of that. She said "Hi" first but I jumped up because it scared me. I was writing my prayer out so I was focused on that.
Then the next thing was I got to make a donation to a ministry that I've seen grown from the start. It is the little thoughts and things that count and make you the person that you are or that God wants you to be. It is strange because I took an international Bible Study before Christmas but I felt strange going into their houses and felt like none of them was for me but then this other person showed up randomly 3 months after the class and we could have things to talk about. Everything is in God's timing and I think that is what He is showing me here again although He has shown me a lot of times. We all need that reminder that He has things under control if we give it to Him and forget about it.
I do tend to try to have control of things and when I do they don't work. The moment in the park was just a reminder to let go and Let God. I say that because I prayed hard last night about a situation of mine that I want to let go and let God have control because I know it is for the better but it is hard espically when I care for the situation. It should be the more I care the able I am to let go so God can care for it. That situation, I still believe, will come true someday if I ever truely let God have it all, not just half or a little of it. I didn't think about it this way in the moment of meeting the new friend but that could be true. THANK GOD FOR HIS TIMING AND FOR HIS VOICE SPEAKING TO ME!
"Today is a blank page. Yes, there are some things that need to be written in, and you could surrender your pen to them, letting events, exceptions, tests, and the judgements of others write this chapter. Or, you could take some time with God, that author and completer of your Faith and start writing today as the adventure He shows you it can be."-Rob Coscia "My heart is overflowing with a good theme as I recite my composition for the King. My tongue is the pen of a ready writer."- Psalm 45:1
