decisions, decisions...

i have a difficult decision to make. never have i leaned more on the advice of God in all that i do. i few days ago i was so worried that if i made the wrong decision i would be left outside of the will of God. today, unfortunately i still worry, but i was comforted by the words of nate e on sunday. he said, "the will of God is not something you do, but rather something you are." what encouragement! as long as i seek out the Lord and pursue him in complete surrender i will be in his will, no matter what the decision is that i make.

nate also spoke about how we should strive to understand the voice of God in such a way that we can distinguish it between all other voices of this world. we should recognize the voice of the Father in such a way that we can act in a single moment upon his voice to speak truth to others in boldness so that the word of God, that is truth, can be spilled onto the lives of the "not yet" Christians (as Bill Randal would put it) in a way that changes their lives.

lets think about this. if we do submit to the Father and we are constantly pursuing his voice and his heart, what could the impact be? if i were to speak out what the Father himself has spoken to me, the creator of the universe, the most magnificant being that created the stars and the insects, the one who knows everything, what could happen? if we pursue the voice of God in such a way that we can earnestly enter into his presence in meekness, could any man stand to that power or would he choose to submit, to lay face down upon the holy ground? i may not be as strong a some, but i would surely fall flat on my noggin.

i encourage you, be intentional about entering into the presence of God in meekness, in humility, as a son that loves his father because he was first loved by Him.

Blessings...
