I traveled two hours last night with my husband to attend a church district conference. We traveled two hours back the same evening. Was it worth the trip? Yes.
Spending time with those of ‘like precious faith,” greeting old friends and meeting new ones, singing gospel songs and hymns together, lifting our voices in worship to our Lord and Savior and listening to the inspired Word of God preached.
But I went for more than one reason. I held a secret yearning in my heart for the Lord to speak to me. Personally. And He did. Because our God is gracious and full of compassion. And He sees our desire for more of Him.
Has the Lord spoken to you when you truly needed to hear His voice? If you stay still before Him, God will give you exactly what you need. As only He can. I pray God speaks to you this week. In your personal life, with your writing pursuits, wherever you need direction.
Thank you for another beautiful post, Cynthia. What a precious Lord we have that He would speak to us personally, in just the way we need. 🙂

I had a similar experience just this morning. A huge change looms on the immediate horizon. I know God has it all well in hand, and I know He will be with us through it. But knowing that and believing it to your core isn’t always the same thing. God knows that. So this morning, He gave me two pieces of encouragement just to remind me of that. Two pieces that were for me personally. And it worked. I feel peace about the change that’s coming. I have no idea how it will all work out, or in what way, but God has it covered. 🙂

Dawn,
Isn’t the Lord so gracious to us? Thank you for sharing. I’m so glad He cheered your heart with exactly what you needed. I know change is difficult but God knows our hearts and has promised to order our steps. And HIs peace passes all understanding…
