last night i really went into a time of prayer. I was feeling really bad becuase I didnt feel God's presence enough in my day to day life. As I usually do, I prayed for God to speak through the Word to me, and of course these verses came up:
That was enough for me to go to my knees and get it straight with God. I came to him and said I was hurt. No fluffy words or turn of phrase. I told him was hurt cuz I didnt feel him, hear him, or see him near me. I told him how it hurt when I didnt know what to do and my conscience was all that I turned to. I told him how I felt like crap cuz i was so superficial that i needed these tangible things to have faith. I told him how I really needed this one answer or some start or direction, anything! In my stubborness I claimed that i wouldnt budge from that spot till I got a straight forward answer. Well I got it, but not in the way I expected it. I had this really really big need to share something to certain people. I saw no reason why they might be encouraged by it, the story was my testimony. I didnt belive anyone would be that moved or daresayit encouraged by my story, but I asked again and again is this what I should do, and of course it was "yes". So the next day i finally get over my nerves and tell it. I say it twice actually on that day (actually today same day as this post). Oh how I felt. I felt his presence with me so much I just let him form the words of my story and the reaction was amazing. Who knew that it could inspire anyone, let alone give the huge boost of faith it gave me? God works through anything and everyone who lives for him. God used me and he can use you. I truely can live for God fully everyday because of my choice to follow him. So in the same way I called out, we all should call out daily and ask God to use us.
