173. On the Line

  As I was listening to the message last night in Brookville, he spoke about the group of people that we’re called to. That made me think for a moment. Who am I called to? Some minister to those in prison, some minister to the addicted, some minister to children, to the homeless or to the helpless. As I prayed about it, I kept hearing the words lukewarm. I love evangelism, I am gifted well in deliverance and healing. Those things all work together in the way the Lord intends them to for my purpose. To bring others closer to Him. Yet to think of nailing down a calling on my life and what that looks like, I can’t help but feel that I’m called to shake up the church. To ignite the lukewarm christians and set them ablaze with the passion they have been missing all along.  The other night as I was driving it was like the world faded away for a moment. I saw the yellow line in the road covered with people, miles long. On each side of the line, there were people miles and miles deep....

172. Where have you been?

  You know how you just never think that you’ll be that girl. The girl that has a hard time getting alone with the Lord. The girl who spends more time in the Dunkin or Starbucks drive thru than she does reading the word. The one who can’t connect to the Lord in an instant so she gets distracted and forgets all about it. Especially after everything I’ve been through these past few years, I never thought I’d be that girl.  Yet here I am, at 11pm on a Saturday night praying to hear His voice. Praying that I’ll feel that tangible touch from the Lord and wondering what I’ve done to plug my ears so He sounds muffled and far away. Then He speaks and speaks clearly in a way that some would say is harsh. So I pass it on, because I write these blogs to share my heart, my thoughts, and to preach just as much to myself as I do to anyone else who will listen. He’s hard with me because I need Him to be. Sometimes I wonder if He preaches to me through me because it’s the only way I’d listen....
