Boy, is this a new learning curve for me! WordPress, the whole web development thing…building up ThouArtExalted! I think I should call it,”I am exhasted!” Trying to find the time to balance a family of 6, church obligations, bible studies and graphic design…I can get completely overwhelmed very fast! As I was jogging and thinking…this verse stood out LOUD and CLEAR. Psalm 119:05 says, “Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path.” AMEN~ The lamp light will only shine a few feet ahead of you. We tend, as Christians, to want to know the whole game plan NOW…but God says to TRUST him every step of the way. When I actually believe that, I really do find the peace that passes understanding. After all, I KNOW that He has a Plan for me and if I trust Jesus for my salvation then why wouldn’t I trust Him with the everyday details of my life!
- I found these illustrations that I painted about 14 years ago…hard to believe! But what a sweet reminder that although we have MANY plans for ourselves…it is HIS plan that will prevail! I heard a minister once say, “We plan, God laughs!” Proverbs 16:9 says, “In his heart a man plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps.” Praise you Lord, that you know the WAY…Because when I step out of your light, it’s only darkness.
- In God’s humor, while I was listening to my ipod on my run, DC Talk’s IN THE LIGHT started playing! Of course it did! Maybe GOD just knew I needed a little extra step to my jog! I DID! Download it or watch the video on YouTube!
