For the past couple of days I've just wanted to get out! A couple of times to even just walking out and not going back!
This morning I asked God to get involved. As I walked out to the car I asked God to help me through the day. I reminded myself of the jobs I hadn't got believing that they were not where God wanted me. Therefore if I got this job, it must be because this is where God does want me!
As I turned on the engine a new song began on the cd player.
Beautiful Lord, wonderful Saviour
I know for sure all of my days are held in Your hand.
Crafted into Your perfect plan.
You gently call me into Your presence
Guiding me by Your Holy Spirit,
Teach me dear Lord.
To live all of my life
through your eyes.
I'm captured by Your holy calling
Set me apart,
I know You're drawing
me to Yourself
Lead me Lord, I pray.
Take me, mold me, use me, fill me,
I give my life to the Potter's hand.
Call me, guide me, lead me, walk beside me
I give my life, to the Potter's hand.
I left work at the end of the day amazed at the difference I had felt today at work. I began to accept that I was able to do things. I no longer felt like a failing cog in a large engine!
I went over to The King's Lodge and met with a few friends. When I mentioned how my day had been different and told them of my prayer, one man of God said "You know why God answered your prayer? Because you expected him to!"
How often do we pray and not expect God to answer? Yet Jesus said
Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer,
believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.
I had to admint, that I KNEW God would answer my prayer today.
A simple lesson, yet one I'm sure I will need to keep learning until expecting God to answer my prayers becomes the norm rather than the unusual!
Let's raise our expectations!
