MY Cup of Fancy this morning is Lavender Lemon Iced Tea.
Since it rained last night, the morning sky is vibrant with lavenders, pinks, and apricots.
How nature bows to your glory and wisdom!
NOW I’LL COME RIGHT TO THE POINT!
How about all of those STUPID DECISIONS….I made in high school and college. Sound familiar? OMG! Did I ever need the Lord’s forgiveness…..and wisdom. I had a hard time forgiving myself, with my OCD Nature. The Evil One likes to remind me.
However, through GRACE, my ABBA, Father, no longer remembers it.
Oh don’t get me wrong. I learned how to pray, and received the sacraments of the Catholic Church in the 50’s
I had 12 years of nuns and was terrified of their Jesus. I was a believer.
However, I didn’t accrue wisdom, fear of the Lord, and knowledge, until I began seeking Him as an adult, through his Holy Word, and I BEGAN TO CRANK IT UP!…..Talk about praying…being still…listening……seeking His Holy Wisdom before I made any decisions; it took awhile, but I digested every bit of direction with which He blessed me.
I am not being facetious by any means when I say go to God’s Word, seek, ask, pray; THEN LET GO AND LET GOD.
His answer will come, but perhaps not in the way you expected it.
My Farmer’s favorite statement to me, as I worried about a career move:”He’ll lay it right in your lap.” He did….but it was his timing.
After my postpartum, my husband encouraged me to get back into my art work, since I began my teaching career as an Elementary Art Teacher. I worked at the craft store giving art lessons for a year… AND THEN GOD CRANKED IT UP!
I met someone who taught preschool-God said,”JUMP!” The next week I was the Art Teacher at the preschool, and my little ones could go with me.
God’s guidance led me to getting recertified for elementary, and going back to Jonathan Alder to teach Kindergarten for 26 years. In ‘95 I earned my masters Degree from Wright State Univ.
Pray…Believe…..Seek….Trust….and He will open and close doors for you.
Father, I praise you for the wisdom that comes from your Holy Word. Thank You for blessing Me this day.
