The God in me

I have a number of things on my mind tonight. :-) nothing hectic or cryptic or painful!
One of my devotions this morning was on Moses and the burning bush. A truly wonderful and inspired story. Bottom line, it's not about me, its not me.... :-) Its the God in me! Reminds me of the song Mary Mary sings, the God in me :-)! I am not doing anything, its not about me and I need to stop making everything about me! Thank you Lord for the gentle and sweet reminder!

:-( cant remember the second thing!! But I think there is a third.

Third..... The Real Time Faith lesson for this week is just oh so what I needed right now! Its about HANDLING EMOTIONS!! That is a power packed lesson. The verses are:
Philippians 4:13 (NKJV)
• “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.”

John 16:33 (NIV)
• “I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”

2 Timothy 1:7 (KJV)
• “For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.”

How powerful is that!? My God loves me so much, I have nothing to be afraid of, I have no need for anything for He provides even before I ask.

:-) I am just thinking that even God providing me with a husband was a seemingly long process to me, but now when I look at my husband, I cant help but smile and thank God for the man He has given me! A man who loves and fears God. A man who loves and adores me :-) who inspires me, who makes me so happy! :-) Thank you Lord Jesus for pouring your love for me in Farai. Thank you Lord

:-) I have remembered the third thing, On the CQ website is a blog on Letting go and Letting God. And the author talks about how God led her to leaving facebook! Something I also feel inspired to leave. And guess what? She nailed the real reason why facebook!!
This is what she says;

'Now, after finally letting go and letting God have His way on this issue in my life, I don’t feel burdened by my tendency to compare myself to others, which for me, social networking only made worse. I no longer feel guilty for not listening to my conscience. Now my prayer is: “O Lord, may we live our lives to Your glory and honor. May we make staying in touch with you our first priority with every new morning You give us the gift of life. May we not argue with the urgings of Your Holy Spirit. May we be still and know that You are God and that You are in control. May we trust as it says in Jeremiah 29:11, that Your will for our lives is far better than our own. In Jesus’ name we pray, Amen.” '

I think facebook depresses me because it seems like we are all competing. Who has the nicest whatever and will put it up for the rest of us to see and envy and if I dont have it it seems like something is missing in my life! Too much comparison. My life is full, busting at the seems even! God has been extremely good to me, nothing is lacking in my mind. December will be my last day on fb, if not earlier. :-) I am loving the blod :-)
