Even though being obediant is difficult we are blessed immeasurably by it, if not immediately then later! May God bless you as you stand back and let Him show off! Thanks for the encouragement to us all to listen to his voice, be obeidiant and serve the purpose He has for us!The Patterson 5https://www.blogger.com/profile/11365182817547393631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-929543254325457611.post-75587167274036778162008-11-19T23:15:00.000-08:002008-11-19T23:15:00.000-08:00Well said!

You are so right that, the need doesn't make it our "thing". How wise of you to get out of the way and listen to God's voice. <BR/><BR/>Yes, I do see God working lately. I am suddenly soooooooooooooo aware of the things going on around me and that perhaps I do have a part to play in it all. If only I knew the part. In the meantime, my eyes on Him I'm enjoying the journey and learning.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for this post!Isabelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10304709468883789926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-929543254325457611.post-27756767729259472082008-11-18T19:29:00.000-08:002008-11-18T19:29:00.000-08:00Oh, girl....I have learned the "can't say yes to e...Oh, girl....I have learned the "can't say yes to everything" lesson the hard way...I used to be so over involved in church that my family joked that I should just move my bed up there.LeeBird3https://www.blogger.com/profile/08007034372718549685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-929543254325457611.post-24943626707621375392008-11-18T19:00:00.000-08:002008-11-18T19:00:00.000-08:00God showed off in our Bible study this morning.

Wow! I had never thought about it that way before.<BR/><BR/>I loved reading your post, and I'm thankful for the joy that He gives when we walk in the places where we're called. Go God!

Yet, I had found myself--after tons of passion--just wanting to fade from being involved anymore. (Sigh!) So, I'm sort of back at the beginning in asking, "God, what DO you want me to do?"<BR/><BR/>I love how you use this Scripture, which has always been a favorite passage of mine.

It encouraged me that neither is better they are equally important because God does the watering. <BR/><BR/>So glad you are seeing God work. I love to see prayers become answered in His timing.

I'm glad God is showing off for you. It is ...Yay! I'm glad God is showing off for you. It is wonderful to see His Hand at work. I don't see Him working in a special area I need Him to work. However, they say when we see or feel it the least, that is when He is working the most. <BR/><BR/>You are so right about not filling a need just because there's a need. I know so many times people are scared to step up to the plate BUT if no one else will (that is the spot is left empty) then it can provide the courage and determination to get the intended person out of the comfort zone and doing what God wants. Make sense? If the same person always teaching SS then, there's no room for a new person to come in and take the experience. <BR/><BR/>Hey, I made reference to you in my post today. :-)<BR/><BR/>I'm glad you are so passionate about marriages. If you want to pray for mine, I'd appreciate it. Basically my Christian husband unbiblically divorced me last November. It's been really hard. He believes God told him the covenant was broken. I still believe in God's power to restore. How can I not hope for reconciliation between two of God's children. Divorce is becoming too popular and it's especially a dishonor between Christians, and Christians who did not break their vows on either part. <BR/>Sweet blessings, <BR/>PaulaPaula Vhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13948349907036852384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-929543254325457611.post-7862441214577452832008-11-18T10:00:00.000-08:002008-11-18T10:00:00.000-08:00Oh, how I relate to your post today.

But I know I cannot be all things to all people. I need to listen to His purpose for me and live that out.<BR/><BR/>Thank you for this timely message or truth.
