ouch!

Matthew 6:24 NIV: No one can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money.


When God speaks, He addresses the little things and the great. He addresses the mundane and the exciting. He is interested in every aspect of your life and He has a desire for you in all of it. In times when we fail to recognize Him as Lord of all in our lives, we identify Him as Lord of sometimes, or Lord of some things.

With regard to religious duty, we can be obedient to rules and maintain lordship over our own lives. But in a relationship with Christ wherein we are completely His, we must obey Him moment-by-moment. In this we will come to know His will and allow it to be dominant over our own.

The Spirit is leading us continuously, but we are not always listening. The question is not, "Are you led by the Spirit?" You are led daily and moment-by-moment. The question is, "Will you follow?"

i cannot think straight. i really can't. i'm soooooooo exhausted. in body and in mind. and there are no feelings.. no words. there's just this great big empty space. and nothing and no one can seem to fill it. *sigh*

i hope this is just a bad case of PMS..

Amen. No matter what He speaks, since He doesn't waste a breath, we should take it to heart & follow wherever He leads. He pressing on.
