My Heavenly Father

I got the privelage of taking Mom and Dad Christian to the airport on Monday morning at six a.m. The ride on the way back was quiet and calm, a perfect time to have a conversation with God. This might sound a little weird but I'm going to say it anyways.
While I was driving I was praying out to God, asking him to give me direction for life, take this situation we are in and make it into something so much better. This is the revelation I got out of our conversation.

When Cameron is kicking and screaming because he wants to do things his way we will gently pick him up and take him into a whole nother environment so he will stop and listen to us. I have been a Christian for two and a half years now, and the entire time I have done things on my time, in my way and wasn't really following God's will for my life. ( I guess you could say) I was doing all the good Christian things on the outside, I just wasn't really listeing to God and his plans for my life. In a sense I was pretty much kicking and screaming. God revealed to me that what he did was pick me up and take me out of the environment i was in because I was not listening to him, he has now taken all my worldy things away from me and has completely got my attention. I am here in a different situation and ready and willing to listen to my heavenly father who knows what is best for me.
That conversation on the way home from the airport brought so much peace into my life at this hectic moment. God has something sooo much better for me I just need to be willing to listen and to follow his direction.

How big God is

This reminds me how big and powerful God is and that compared to this giant, intricate, storm my life's problems are easy for him :) It is also very pretty <3

This time of year

As I go about my day, complaining that I have a house to clean, no time to do things i would like to do, no way to leave my nice, cozy, warm apartment, God speaks to me and says, "You have so much more than most. Be Grateful you have a house to clean, Be Grateful you have wonderful kids that keep you soooo busy, be grateful you have a nice warm place to be"

This time of year it's supposed to be about giving, giving to those who don't have. I believe we are supposed to give grace, God's grace to people that don't know anything about him.
I cry a lot this time of year, for the people that don't have. I feel like there is so much I want to do, and there is not enough man power behind just me to do it. Then God speaks again, "You can do all things through Christ who strengthens you." If I have God behind me I can make a difference, he can make a difference. If every person, even did one tiny small wonderful thing for someone else, We could all make a huge difference.

I don't really know where I was going with this,
I think I was just rambling.

Until next time....
