Worship should be something you do all day. God needs to be in everything you do. Nothing is too small or too big for God.
I have been asking God to help me get out of my comfort zone. I am a quite shy person. It normally takes me a long time of being around someone to open up and really speak. I am not a public speaker. It could be a group of family and friends yet I still am hesitant to speak. Getting put on the spot to say something is very far from my comfort zone, which is what happen tonight. I was asked to open up the bible study in pray. My face probably turned a dark shade of red and at first I declined. I didn't want to do it but I knew saying no was wrong. Under conviction and relying on faith, I was given another chance and did so. I'm sure I sounded extremely nervous and have no clue if I actually made sense. What matter's is I trusted in God and took that first step from my comfort zone. Next time I just need to do it without pause or having to be given a second chance.

3/22/2011 1 Comment Been a WhileFor being a housewife without children I have felt quite busy lately. I can only imagine what it will be like when God finally blesses us with kids. Having activities to do especially ones for others & God bring such joy to me. I don't feel depressive or useless as much as I did in the past. I thank God completely for that because it wasn't a pleasant way to live life.
One of my current projects is a home garden(blog for it under projects-gardening). It's been nearly 9 years that we have had this property & I've been wanting to have a garden. Do to that I think I may have tried to over do it this first year. I'm not really in shape & even though I knew it was going to be hard work it's tougher then I anticipated. Does that mean I'm giving up? No not at all it just means I'm asking God for more strength, it's taking longer to get done & probably won't be as grand as I thought this year. After 5 years of not touching my school work, I have finished 2 of the 8 English assignments I had left to do. Thanks to God putting Pastor Shawn in my life & having him give me a motivational speech. I got 100s on both exams. My goal is to be finished & finally graduated by my birthday in September. I have also been helping out a little & socializing more with a wonderful group that is doing a church plant for Grace City Ministries. Even though it takes me hours to do the few things I have been doing for them I have been loving every minute. It's such an incredible feeling doing for the Lord. The more I get to do for Him the happier I get. I pray that I get more opportunities to do more works for Him & to help spread His Great News. On a final note I hope to get my garden blog & picture 365 blog updated some time this week. I know I having been slacking. |
