when the rain falls….

I’m sitting here, listening to the rain and thinking how AMAZING God is. He’s amazing even when we don’t see it or even when we do but just ignore it. The last 4 months were rough. I started a job at a place that at first I thought was gonna be amazing but once I started I soon found out I wasn’t doing what I had in mind and soon realized I hated it and wanted things to be back the way they used to be. Isn’t too often that the grass is always greener on the other side, you don’t realize how great you have it until it’s gone. During the last 4 months I fought, wrestled and sought God like I never have and now that things are back to the way they were before, I realize that we tend to lean on God when we struggle, when we are faced with the flames and refined but the mment things start getting better, easier we no longer depend on Him. Shouldn’t we ALWAYS seek Him, shouldn’t we ALWAYS trust and depend on Him. The answer to that is and easy one but not an easy one to live. I can tell you all that sure we need to seek Him in the good times and the bad but living it is not always that easy. I want so badly to live completely and fully for Him, I want to be used by Him and be a world changer. Not because it’s the cool thing to do and not because ‘Everyone” is doing it, but because I want to make a difference, because I want God to be lifted up by what I do. I want to bring others to Him by my actions and I CAN NOT do that if i’m not willing to trust Him. With that I challenge you to pray, speak to Him in a way you never have and be still. Listen to what He wants for your life. What He has planned. Don’t say a word, just listen to what He has to say. Most likely it will be a still and quiet voice so shut up and wait.
