Getting To Know God Through His Word

Getting To Know God Through His Word

I have a very special relationship with God.  I gave my life to him. I try hard to listen when he talks to me.  I try to follow what he wants.  I'm not perfect and sometimes He has to repeat himself, but he has been patient.

 I have had a hard time with feeling lost lately.  I know God has a special plan for my life, but being patient is something I struggle with. I asked Him to show me where he wants me to go.  

He has been telling me that I need to know him.  This confused me because I thought I did know Him.  I didn't understand what he meant.  I didn't see that he was answering my prayer about feeling lost.  He was giving me direction.  

I did not know His word.  To really know Him and His plans for me, I had to know his word.  

"Grace and Peace will be multiplied by knowledge revealed by revelation."  I finally understand that His word contains the information that will lead to a revelation.  

To know Him and His plan for me, I must know His word.   So, I am going to devote my time in studying His word.  I will be blogging this exciting journey of discovery.  If you haven't studied His word, I invite you to join me.  If you have questions or comments, please share.

Waiting for Direction

Waiting For Direction

I know God has a specific plan for my life.  He has a plan for all our lives. I know that he will reveal his plan when its time. I know I should wait patiently, but I am having a hard time. I feel  a little lost right now.

I have prayed about it and He tells me I am not ready. I think deep down I knew that.

I have a bad habit about jumping the gun on things. I get an idea and jump in feet first. I sometimes "do" before I "think". This can get me into trouble. I have learned from these lessons that praying for God's desire, is the only way to make decisions in my life.

So I am going to live in the present and wait for God to show the way.
