Recently we had a guest speaker come to our church to prophesy over people. He's incredibly gifted and God really uses him in our church sometimes.
My whole family was desperate for a word from God through him. Confirmation. Direction. Anything.
I didn't feel so much desperate for a word but I did want some confirmation of some things. However, the speaker never spoke to me or Grant.
That night I got to thinking and praying about it and I felt God saying If you want a word from me that badly, ask. You can't expect me to speak through someone else when you aren't doing anything to hear me yourself. It's not fair to expect someone to just tell you what God has in store for you if you aren't seeking the answers yourself. You have to make an effort to hear God and spend some extra quality time with him if you want some direction. God can speak to you just as clearly as he can anyone else. You just have to make the effort to hear him. And then listen. He wants to talk to you just as much as you want to hear from him.
I have also recently (along with Grant) have been bombarded by blessings right now. And it's pretty sweet. He's so faithful to come through for us, no matter what we have done.
This next year a lot is going to change. And it is all change that I'm anxiously waiting for.
Wish I had more to write about, but it's work, sleep, church, work. And then there's that glorious couple of hours that I get to spend with the most wonderful man to ever walk to earth.
He's even more amazing than he was the first time I wrote about him. I'm so proud to call him mine. We're gonna be awesome together. Plus there's this super cute picture of him with his little niece. He's going to be a perfect dad. :)
I love him so much :)
♫ I need you, OH I need You.
Every hour I need you.
My one defense, My righteousness
Oh God, how I need you ♫
