Megan. I love you dearly. I am praying for you. By reading of your day and heart, it seems the enemy has surrounded you with lies. Your heavenly Father delights in you. Your lack of time in the word and seeking Him has not disappointed or surprised Him. He knew of these days before they happened. But He does desire for you to be seeking. We begin to grow weary of the labor we do in the kingdom when we find ourselves doing it upon our own strength. We are not enough. Sometimes it takes everything around us to fall before we see how desperate we are for Christ. He holds you tonight. May you allow yourself to be enfolded in His arms. Cling to the truth. God is good and His love endures forever. He is meeting you where you are right now. May your life give Him glory for that.
Thanks guys! That was really encouraging! Uhm. I'm doing better? lol.
One thing that Josh Winn said at first service that really stuck out to me was that you can move forward from HERE. I guess I always think something big needs to happen before I can start again, you know?
So last night I decided that I was just going to worship Him. I wasn't going to focus on every problem I felt like I was going to have, I was just going to sing Praise to my King. And it was good. :)
So I guess I'm starting over again, but that's okay. One thing Dave really talked about is how God isn't obsessed with you understand Him (something I always ask for) but that you are obedient to Him (something I wasn't) so that message was really what was going on in my heart. So uhm, that helped a lot. :)
You guys are great encouragements. (Abbie - I've heard that fish bowl thing before, it's a great illustration. :) )
