Wait Patiently For It

Discerning The Voice Of God

Quote:

IF YOU WANT TO HEAR GOD'S voice clearly and you are uncertain, then remain in His presence until He changes this uncertainty. Often much can happen during this waiting for the Lord. Sometimes He changes pride into humility; doubt into faith and peace; sometimes lust into purity. the Lord can and will do it.~~Corrie Ten Boom


Wait for the LORD; Be strong, and let your heart take courage;
Yes, wait for the LORD
Psalm 27:14

The process of waiting for a message from God
is just as important a the message itself.

Expect To Hear It

Started a new bible study today by Priscilla Shirer, Discerning The Voice Of God ~ How to Recognize When God Speaks

Wanted to share a few things from today's study.

Quote:

"GOD WILL SPEAK TO THE HEARTS of those who prepare themselves
to hear; and conversely, those who do so prepare themselves
will hear nothing even though the Word of God is falling upon their outer ears every Sunday." ~~ A.W. Tozer


"If we come to Him doubting His ability to speak, we will have a difficult time listening. So we must come expectantly." ~~Charles Stanley

We need to approach the Father with an expectancy that He will speak.


Do we (I) come expectantly?

Lord, open my eyes, ears, heart and my soul to your voice...
In the morning, O Lord, You will hear my voice;
In the morning I will order my prayer to You and eagerly watch.
Psalm 5:3

Staying Young At Heart

This past week Mike and I had the joy of having our granddaughter come and spend the week with us. I can't tell you how much fun we had so here are a few pics that say it better than I.

What a ham!

before the coming rain.

Storytime for our princess.


Oh, Gram can I go down on your back!!


Pop was much smarter than Gram.


I love a girl who can dress like a princess and then

the next minute put on a ball cap and

pretend to be driving a race car.

A granddaughter after my own heart.

I hope you all enjoyed and got the picture.
