Good morning sweet friends. I just love sitting down to have my time with Jesus and knowing that there are amazing women walking alongside me in this journey. I am so excited about this year!
I was drawn to the story of Noah this morning. But Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord. Genesis 6:8. How I pray this for my own Noah! How I pray this for all of my children and myself too. :) As I read the instructions that God gave to Noah, I pictured how dazed Noah might have been to hear all of this. I can relate. I know that as God called us to change our life drastically and head to the mission field, there were many days that I felt dazed! Who am I kidding, there are still many days that I feel dazed! In verse 20 the Bible tells us that every kind of creature would "come to you"(Noah). Noah did not have to go out and drag those animals to the ark. They CAME to Noah. Awesome. While Noah was busy being obedient and building that arc, God was busy taking care of the details. What a great reminder for me. It is my job to be obedient to the instructions that God has given me in my heart. It is His job to take care of the details.
My prayer today is that we will all listen and be obedient to the call God has for our lives and that we would trust the details to Him.

ReplyDeleteThanks Tina! I needed reminding that God asks us to be obedient and leave the rest to Him. I've gotten frustrated at church over the past few months because I see so many "not pulling their weight". God has reminded me (sometimes not so gently) that He has given me a job to do and I am to be obedient, He'll take care of everyone else. Thanks for pointing out a perfect example with Noah!
