Listening to God's Word
"Did not our hearts burn within us?" - Luke 24:32
From "My Utmost for His Highest" for March 22nd
"... the only test we should use to determine whether or not to allow a particular emotion to run its course in our lives is to examine what the final outcome of that emotion will be. ... if it is something God would condemn then put a stop to it immediately ...(but) if the Spirit of God has stirred you, make as many of your decisions as possible irrevocable, and let the consequences be what they will ...
We can not kindle when we will the fire which in the heart resides, the Spirit bloweth and is still, In mystery our soul abides; But tasks in hours of insight willed, Can be through hours of gloom fulfilled."
- Oswald Chambers
I've been journaling through Lent and I'm in a dry spot. I have been amazed by God's word and upset that I haven't written it down earlier. Then my oldest brother died and things changed. Over the last few days, it has been very hard to hear God. It seemed clear that I had piled my concerns, anxieties, list of tasks, and many other things on top of God's word, crowding Him out.
The last sentence of this entry really got to me. We can't control when God will inspire us and talk to us but we can control our faithfulness even when we can't hear him "hours of gloom".
God Bless!

One Body in Christ
When I saw this, I didn't think so much of social media, etc. But I did think about Romans 12:5 "so in Christ we, though many, form one body, and each member belongs to all the others" Amazing video - we have an amazing God!
