Looking For Opportunities For Growth


THANK ME IN THE MIDST of the crucible. When things seem all wrong, look for growth opportunities. Especially, look for areas where you need to let go, leaving your cares in My able hands. Do you trust Me to orchestrate your life events as I choose, or are you still trying to make things go according to your will? If you keep trying to carry Out your intentions while I am leading you in another direction, you deify your desires. 

 Be on the lookout for what I am doing in your life. Worship Me by living close to Me, thanking Me in all circumstances.

 Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. -1 THESSALONIANS 5:18 
from Jesus Calling Sarah Young p.140

When you hear him, or sense his prompting or gentle nudge, act on it. Don’t hesitate, do what he wants you to do. If you do this consistently, the Spirit will become your intimate friend and he will make something beautiful out of your life.       Pope Joh...
