It's not easy. But I have to if God wants me to say yes to other things.

The people-pleaser in me keeps trying to poke out, but as long as I keep praising and thanking Him and keeping myself filled to the brim with His Spirit, He wins. Lord, keep showing me the steps you desire of me. It's You I want to know and please. <br /><br />Hugs, Nichole! Thank you for always turning us back to Him! <br />Lori- AZLorinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-929543254325457611.post-37132481539404792512009-12-17T09:54:33.487-08:002009-12-17T09:54:33.487-08:00Satan has a way of dangling the most "perfect...Satan has a way of dangling the most "perfect" carrots in front of my face--fits my spiritual gift profile, fits in my schedule (if I cram it in here...), it's "good", etc.<br /><br />And, inevitably, I'll get into it and realize that it was not "good" because it stretched me/stole me away from something else that my gut/Holy Spirit called me to do.<br /><br />I am much better at not spot-filling, and feeling at peace with leaving opportunities open, but I'm not better, yet, at saying "no" when lots of positive persuaders say "yes".

Oh, did you ever pin me wit...Am I a people pleaser?<br />Oh, did you ever pin me with that question!<br />Yes, I am. And by the grace of God I am learning to not just fill spots - in order to please people. He is growing the desire in me to be who HE wants me to be, regardless of what I think other people expect. <br />It is free-ing, and it is sweet. <br />Very sweet.<br />So glad for a friend like you, with whom I can run this marathon!Karen Hossinkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18049412644792482270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-929543254325457611.post-43199091249503640642009-12-17T07:04:53.130-08:002009-12-17T07:04:53.130-08:00Good post.Good post.From the Hearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06612517670775886165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-929543254325457611.post-20441451932682478832009-12-16T23:03:50.234-08:002009-12-16T23:03:50.234-08:00Nichole!

God's purpose has nothing to do with Worldly activities. We get too busy with that "good Christian girl" list instead of focusing on what God's purpose for us is.<br /><br />Blessings!achildofthekinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16431322348633034092noreply@blogger.com
