So I haven't written a devotional in a while. But I sware thats going to change. Why is that, because God's is knocking at my door trying to wake me up..... How , well I've been in school for just a bit over a month. I seem to have alot of time on my hands, but when it gets down to it, even though I have alot of time on my hands, I've never felt busier. So I used to update the world about God has done in my life once a week I would post a bible reflection. Some would call that a devotional. Others a blog. So how has God tried to wake me up. Well it seems lately that the topic at hand is how often styles clash on more than one level.
While being in school, I have somewhat stopped praying, and I found out that my friend is not the best thing to do. I've lived like the world for too long now. Theres something that was appealing to me about them. When I openly think about it, to live according to the world is in my opinion quite foolish.
It seems like every where I turn lately God is telling to "Wake up." From my fittness to school, to writing devotionals. reading and praying. Tonight I got a good vote of confidence from a nutrion I often visit sometimes. Apparently many fittness trainers and nutrionist are impressed with my deternination in my fittness.... I do it because my body needs it on many levels.
At the same time, because I felt so busy I've forgot about the church. This doesn;t do me well... Because Ive gone through emotional problems, felt lost or blank at times, I can tell you because I recieved with the vote of confidence. While walking to the bus I smiled and said out loud, Haha , I guess God is real awesome. In referece to that I'n always been taking care of.
I guess I know for the next time to spend more time spiritually. I do hope to do just that....
Thank you God for waking me up....
1 O LORD, hear my prayer,
listen to my cry for mercy;
in your faithfulness and righteousness
come to my relief.
2 Do not bring your servant into judgment,
for no one living is righteous before you.
3 The enemy pursues me,
he crushes me to the ground;
he makes me dwell in darkness
like those long dead.
4 So my spirit grows faint within me;
my heart within me is dismayed.
5 I remember the days of long ago;
I meditate on all your works
and consider what your hands have done.
6 I spread out my hands to you;
my soul thirsts for you like a parched land.
Selah
7 Answer me quickly, O LORD;
my spirit fails.
Do not hide your face from me
or I will be like those who go down to the pit.
8 Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love,
for I have put my trust in you.
Show me the way I should go,
for to you I lift up my soul.
9 Rescue me from my enemies, O LORD,
for I hide myself in you.
10 Teach me to do your will,
for you are my God;
may your good Spirit
lead me on level ground.
11 For your name's sake, O LORD, preserve my life;
in your righteousness, bring me out of trouble.
12 In your unfailing love, silence my enemies;
destroy all my foes,
for I am your servant.
