I've been learning a lot this year as God has been working on my heart. He is teaching me to get my priorities in order and to focus on the things that matter most. He has also taught me some discipline in my daily life, instead of letting laziness creep in. I've been learning that in my heart, I am a judgmental person and thankfully, He is working on that too. I'm learning to let go of what I think is important and follow God's plan for my life instead, even if that means putting school on hold for two weeks unexpectedly to take care of sick family members. I'm learning that what others think of me, my home or how I do things doesn't really matter if I am following what God has shown to me. I still have so much growing to do, but praise be to God that He is not through with me yet. My heart's desire is to grow closer to Him each and every day so that when others look at me, they see Him.
Blessings,
Rashel

Praise God He isn't finished with me yet either. I too have been working on priorities and not being so idle. I am a fairly new reader but am inspired by your writings each time I come back to visit. I left you a little gift on my blog. I hope you have a wonderful weekend!
ReplyDeleteYou are so right. I created a blog just for my journey with the Lord. I am not only a new follower but I nominated you for the Liebster Award check my blog for details :)

I know what you mean! I feel like I've been forced to bend and stretch in ways that have made me a more compassionate person!
