I'm really pretty good at following my heart. I go where I feel called... without regard for how hard it might actually be to get there. God knows that about me. Some may call my ability to jump in faith and go for it... a lack of focus or bad business practice. I call it being willing... as long as I'm able. I believe God will provide in every circumstance and if I am truly called by Him then I can stand on that. God spoke to my heart in the night. He must have known I was lying awake having my own private doubts about upcoming opportunities and responsibilities. This is what I heard... "Follow my heart." I tossed that one around in my brain for a while and eventually convinced myself it was just me... talking to me. Then I heard it again... differently this time... with an added message to drive the point home. "Follow my heart. Don't lean on your own understanding. Trust me." Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the LORD with all your heart and do not lean on your own understanding. Message received. I've got a lot to do today... most of which is in preparation for things down the road. I am inspired by the idea that it's not my heart I follow but His. I'm so pumped! I figured out how to upload audio files! Here is a little something for you. Just click the play button below. My prayers for you go with the music. I Give My Life to Thee by Julie Hoy from the God Will Provide CD I Give My Life to Thee

Thanks Julie! I was also up last night struggling with the future and trying to figure it all out... I have a harder time than you trusting in His plan for me. I don't like waiting on His timing! But thank you for the message of "don't lean on your own understanding". I'm gonna try to wait on God today:)

It has been a rough, rough year for me. Unfortunately I feel like God has forgotten me. But I keep telling myself he has a plan and it is just going to take longer. I do hear "just be patient" inside my head at times but always think it is me talking to myself. Maybe it is him.
