As I think about what to write on this blog or what God wants me to do, I hear this voice saying why do you think you can talk about these things? You are a hypocrite. You say one thing and do another. Your actions lately are very unbecoming. I fear letting my friends even see this. They know me right? I know that voice can't possibly be God's because it is too loud and mean. And God doesn't make me feel bad about myself. He lifts me up and lets me know I can do what He wants me to.
All I can say is I'm not perfect. I make mistakes. I grumble and complain. I gossip. I get grumpy. But, I'm also a child of the king and he wants to help me grow and not do all those things. He wants me to grow and mature. In the mean time, He has given me things to say. And this really is about my growth in Him and my journey to improve my relationship with my Heavenly Father. It is only with His grace and mercy that I can share this.
Each day as I spend time in His word and seek Him and talk to Him, we become closer. I feel the Holy Spirit guiding me as I go through my day. I'll get those gentle nudges of "that really isn't a good idea" or "should you really be saying that?". Then it is up to me to listen and obey.
Dear Father in Heaven,
I ask that You guard my mouth, purge the thoughts that go through my mind that are not glorifying to you. Father, I want my life to glorify you but I need You to guide me and teach me Your ways.
In Jesus Name,
Amen
