Sometimes It Is Enough To Be Still

There is a way in which we live that changes things when God's heart dwells within.

"Be still and know I am God" - Psalm 46:10

This week I am challenging myself to be still, do my devotions, seek God, do what He has called me too and rest in that. 

There is this balance between being still when it is the right time

Rather than sitting still in a time where God may not lead you step by step but is calling you to take action

God will lead you, one thing I've learned is even if you don't understand, do not know, seek God's word, talk to Him

Remember this if God is with you, He does give us the freedom to choose where we want to go, He can't force us, so go the way God wants to go if you so desire, but He can't force you to do the right thing.

So this week in honor of Thanksgiving, people, and life's craziness I am not going to post a whole lot on here, and to think about my life and what God has given me and why I'm so thankful for His love and compassion.

God is good and has brought generations, civilizations, and a single person out of hardships, try to think of a hard time you had in the last year, or last week even? 

Isn't it funny how we can look at something so bad, but when we look at our lives through heaven's eyes we start to see a deeper purpose and God makes it so that we can use that to further us on our journey with Him.

I challenge you to take a break from all this technology, take a journey through the past, present, and even future and see where God is bringing you, or has, or will do.

I will state one thing I am thankful for is that God has given me a life, a new beginning, a chance to shine in this world of darkness, moral decay, and has shown me how  to love throughout hardships in my own life but in the long run He is using this so I can relate to people who have had issues like mine or completely different. 

I feel as if the family I was brought into the world with is something hard, it was not easy, still is not.

But He has blessed me as the...

"Beauty In The Broken"

God can make even you into something beautiful like He did with my own life. My life would mean nothing and I wouldn't stand a chance without God. I've seen both sides, I'd never want to be without God as my best friend. He completes me and He can complete you too. God loves each and everyone of us and calls us to be with Him, but you, yes you my friend, have a choice.
