Have you ever noticed the way God speaks to us? He tells us the same thing over and over---just in different ways and through different people. We may read something in His word, and then someone later that day will be talking about the same subject, or you will hear a song related to that subject, or you will hear some preacher (usually your husband!!!) preach on it. It goes on and on. I am sure He does that to make His point and to be sure that we get what He is trying to tell us.
That happened this last week. I don't know how many of you got to participate in the Beth Moore Simulcast this past weekend, but it was great. I always enjoy her speaking, but this time it was as if God was whispering in my ear. I really needed to hear what she had to say. The whole context of the weekend was delighting ourselves in the Lord and He will give you the desires of our hearts. Of course, we all love that scripture because we want those desires to be met. Then she told us to lay those desires at the Lord's feet. I went to Him in prayer and earnestly did just that. Boy did I feel better. But then, as she closed the weekend, she spoke on being content!!!! That is what the Lord has been speaking to me about for a while now. I had to admit that I have not really been content. I know that God CAN give me those desires if He wants, but what if He doesn't want that for my life? Am I willing to be content??? I have been thinking about that for days now. And I was wondering, what about you????
