When you take a sabbatical from Facebook to get closer to God the devil knows too. Trust me, he reared his ugly head multiple times yesterday. I ended the day confused, frustrated, and exhausted. The devil had a hay day with me yesterday.
I heard God whisper on the way to work "Be Still and Know that I am God." Well, yours truly decided to keep listening to music. What did He have to say to me? Well, whatever it was I missed it. If you know me much at all you know it's hard for me to be still much less be quiet for any amount of time. I"m a people person who loves people and I like to talk. ..No feedback from the peanut gallery!!!!!
He extends the invitation ....Draw near and Be Still and know that I am God. He evidently has something to say to me so instead of music this morning there'll be a quiet car. He's God and I am not. In the midst of my crazy home life, work life, church life I am a person who needs rest too. I"ve heard that much from God.
Rest, something we all need but this Jesus loving girl is in neeed of much rest . You see it's been a moon or two since I"ve gone to a Wednesday nnight service. So, I'm praying about how to make that happen close to where I work.. Please pray with me about that.
Unplugging can be so refreshing! I don't miss the unkind things people say to each other, I don't miss the political stuff...It's technically day 3 and it's easier! A friend of mine from church is tryng it with me. She's having a tough time but for every time she looks at facebook she's memorizing a scripture! That's not bad either! Hiding God's word in our hearts! Ahhh!!!!
Your prayers are appreciated for me this day as I work and journey on getting closer to Jesus each and every day unplugged!
