God is Speaking

Everyday Let the Lord Speak

​I saw a post on Facebook that made me think about those who call themselves Christians but don’t act like it.  Maybe you’ll relate too: The other day, I was hangin' with a friend who calls herself a Christian, but doesn't always act like one. Some days she's on fire for the Lord and some days life's struggles seem to get the best of her. So, as our eyes met, I really wanted to say something to her. But then, I decided to just let the Lord speak. Nothing I could say could have the impact that He could when speaking to her heart. So, I prayed with her and after some time, I winked... and walked away from the mirror. 

Isn’t it often true that the one we think that should hear, this great verse or teaching from God, is a family member or a friend we have in mind?  But seriously, in actuality it’s our very own selves that need to hear “the teaching?  Oh, to believe in Psalm 86:15, “But You, my Lord, are a God of compassion and mercy; You are very patient and full of faithful love,” everyday.
