Confirmation

In 2013 I grew in my relationship with God. I began attending church on a more regular basis, prayed and even picked up my bible to begin a 13 week Reconciliation Journey. I fell short on some days, forgot to pray and while the 13 week Reconciliation Journey is over and I am still working on it I have gained a sense of peace in knowing that God is always in control. I prayed on my marriage, career, and on several friendships, I noticed that every time He spoke it was a loud voice, much clearer than I had heard in the past. His voice was not only louder but clearer and not to be mistaken with my conscious weighing the pros and the cons, it was a calm unwavering voice declaring to me that “it” was the right choice. It was this voice that led me to write this first blog of 2014. I almost went to bed with a heavy heart this morning because something was taken from me without my agreement. Instead of getting upset per my usual, I prayed, laid my head on my pillow and I slept well, no uneasiness and no hard feelings. Although, I spoke to my husband and a close friend about it I still feel good about the decision that was made for me, because it was confirmation to what I had already spoken to God about. I am going into 2014 with an open mind, a willing heart and the expectation that God can do ANYTHING but fail. My faith grew this morning, sometimes receiving confirmation will do that. I’ve learned that once God has spoken to you about a situation that it’s best to let Him deal with it from there on out so after I enter this blog I am letting go and letting God.
