I awoke this morning and as I lay in bed a bit I contemplated God. How good He is. How all the storms I endured in my life always subsided.
My thoughts wandered to my current storm of behaving like Lot’s wife and I asked forgiveness… again. And then I was just about to ask God to grace me with a sign, a nudge, a confirmation, or something to bolster my faith when my thoughts went to “it’s okay Lord, you always come through I am sorry.”
And I got up to start my day. Okay but not ecstatic. Ready to plunge in again.
And then! My thoughts started taking a downward slide towards the path of woe. I recognized it sooner than later this time. I cried out “Jesus!”
And then I heard the singing in my heart “show me your glory.”
How can I refuse to let God shine all over my life?
Guess who would want me to?
You want to know how this started? A Christian “friend” just so happened coincidentally to spew fear at me last night. I rebuked him. Was he mad? Nope! He just responded as the enemy would with a whatever attitude.
So now instead of being a duped participant in my own robbery , I am upping my asking for Gods abundance!!
Exodus 33:18-23
18 Then Moses said, “Now show me your glory.”
19 And the Lord said, “I will cause all my goodness to pass in front of you, and I will proclaim my name, the Lord, in your presence. I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion.
