It’s been a few weeks since I’ve gotten time to sit and blog,
why? Because too often I let the “Noise of life” overtake me. Last night God called
out loud and clear to me as He often does when I’m distracted and focused on the external
issues in my life, I’m glad I listened.
This morning as I read my devotional book “Made to Crave”. I
knew He already went before me and had prepared this verse, not last night, but
when he formed me long ago, he knew that this morning I would read this verse
and my spirit would be lifted to Him.
“We demolish
arguments and every pretension that sets itself against the knowledge of God, we
take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.” 2 Corinthians 10:5
Are you often quick to argue for the sake of arguing? Are you
baffled at the things others say? I used
to be a spitfire with an Irish temper to boot! I would argue for fun but now I
feel I often get tongue tied these days, why? I don’t know but maybe because I’m
afraid that I’m not strong enough or know enough to stand up for my thoughts
and actions anymore or I’ve lost credibility along the way. This is the devil
putting that noise in my head, because He doesn’t want me to follow the calling
God has placed on my heart or the success and freedom that God has planned for
me and my family.”I am fearfully and wonderfully made” and I need to say that
every time I think I’m not worth my own thoughts but in that I must also
remember 2 Cor. 10:5 and ask myself:
- - Are my thoughts obedient to God?
- - Am I doing this for His glory or my own?
- - Where do I place my value, on the external or internal?
God has a plan for each of us, so today I urge you to let
the ‘Noise of life” go and be prepared to listen to the voice of God. He
is waiting patiently for you to turn to Him and say here I am Lord.
Be yourself and trust that He doesn’t make mistakes
