God is calling me to be more faithful...in many things, but mainly with spending time with Him on a DAILY basis. Oh, I'm good at running in and out of His temple...spending 3 or 4 days a week reading and/or praying. But God wants me to be faithful. He's telling me this in church AND where I'm reading in His Word. And not just to read so I can say I fulfilled my "obligation", but to hear His voice daily in what He is saying to me specifically.
So, with that in mind, I have a plan. I have decided that I am going to post God's daily thought to me in my blog. It's more of an online diary for me...a way to permanently record the thoughts I get. Anybody who wants to read my journey is welcome to, and any thought I post is what God spoke to me...it's not meant to "judge" anybody else. Comments are welcome, but don't feel obligated. If my journey helps anybody else, then I am the one who is blessed.
Today's Thought
1 Corinthians 4:1-2: so then men ought to regard us as servants of Christ and as those entrusted with the secret things of God. Now it is required of those who have been given a trust must prove faithful.
In order to become a trustee of the secret purposes of God, I must be faithful. This is why I have a tendency to remain on more shallow ground - because I have not abided with God - not faithfully communed - but run in and out of His presence. So as I am faithful, I become trustworthy with God's thoughts, dreams, and purposes. May the blood of Jesus make me faithful!!

Hey, Ruth!
This is Lorna. I'm really glad to be in touch with you again and have enjoyed looking over your blog. I wanted to return the favor -- mine is at http://deweyhaftaacademy.blogspot.com/
It's been ages since my last post -- I had been just about a daily poster for over a year, but now I haven't touched it in over 2 months. Maybe sending you the link will force me to start doing it again!
I don't have a link to it on FB because it's a super-secret blog and there are people (whom I love dearly) on FB that I don't really want reading it. ;-) Since you and I don't have any mutual FB friends, I'm not worried about posting it here. (I have no problems with strangers reading it -- only certain people I know!) ;-)
