Writing With Vision
My mother used to tell me that one of my first words was, “Myself.” I wanted to be a “big girl” and keep up with my older siblings. Sometimes, I find myself saying the same thing to God. Maybe not out loud, but by not listening deeply and responding with obedience.
Discern = to see, recognize, or understand the difference between what is presented to you.Have you ever been totally sure you understand, so you go ahead and choose. How many times have you had to admit, “Oops.”Ask God about it.
What does faith have to do with life?
If I depended on my puny strength, I wouldn’t last long. But God loves me, and He is always with me.
Do you sleep with a night light? What does that soft glow mean to you in the middle of the night? God is the night light that is always shining just for you.
Sometimes, when the world seems dark, we can only see the dark clouds, hear the screaming wind, and feel the pelting rain. Until God opens our eyes to see a ray of His light right there with us. He’s not hiding; He’s been here all along.
It is so easy to get turned around, especially surrounded by waves with no land in sight. We need a guide.
