Food For Thought

I have felt spiritually bone-dry for quite some time now, and although I have been seeing God work in my life through my husband and daughter it has been a challenge. Part of it, and this is the major part, has been my decline in devotions. I have always been faithful in devotions, but for the past few months have started to put other things before them. Now I understand that devotions do not necessarily have to be spending a full hour pouring over the Bible every day, devotions can be singing worship songs, praising as you clean house, going for a walk and being reminded of God through creation and many other things, but there is still nothing like being refreshed by reading the Bible and being spoken too by the One who created the universe. This morning I finally put God first in my day. Amazing what that can do. I feel energized, alive and ready to survive the busy week I have ahead of me.

"All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in reighteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work" 1 Timothy 3:16-17

This morning I needed the reproof, correction, instruction, completeness and equipping. Guess what.... God gave me that. Yes people, God still speaks. I have to remember to tell Dan that God gave me the hug that Dan prayed for last night.....
