I Purpose to Embrace......

"God's Reasons."

        I started a new thing for this year. It is an idea I got from a certain author. She gave the action word for each month and then we are suppose to come up with something to work on during that month. There were also prayer sheets too so we could prayer about it theoughout the month. The action word for last month was "Embrace". 

         I had to ask myself, "what did I want to embrace" and the answer came up as "God's Reasons". It was good for me because I would always remind myself that God had a reason for this and it would get me through the day. I would also change things throughout the month because I felt like God had a better reasoning for the other thing.

         Here are some examples that happened in my life, this month, that I needed to see God's reasoning. I looked at my friends' lives and see if I could see some reasoning in their lives that I could use in mine. I know that isn't a good thing to do either. I need to stop that and I'm working on that.

         The other example was a in my life. I reasoned between two Bible studies. I really wanted to take "Entrusted" by Beth Moore because it was just by her but there was another Bible study I wanted to take too. That Bible study was called "Experiencing God". I started taking the Beth Moore one and found out it wasn't what I needed. It was all about mentoring and I'm just not at that part of my life yet. I'm the one that needs to be mentored.

         The "Experiencing God" one was just want I need. I love it! It is all about having a closer relationship with God and right now that is what I need. I'm still building that true love relationship with Him. It is all about hearing Him speak to where I can follow Him to my calling. This was my big thing in January to go with my words. 

         That was January's word and I'm just now writing about it. That s why it is my 1st entry for February. I will admit, though, I need to do better this month with it.
         Happy Groundhog's Day! We have 6 more weeks of Winter. He saw his shadow.
