MARRIAGE:
Sharing needs and meeting them is more constructive than complaining.
What a difference between
1. You have worked every night this week and I am tired of it!
This attacks.
2. Or: I really sense how hard you have been working and at the same time I find myself missing you.
Could we plan some special time for just us?
This expresses need.
Help us to shift our focus from reacting to others behavior to sharing our needs and the needs of others.
-Intimate Moments
Keeping God's attention.
From where does my help come?
My help comes from the Lord. Psalm 12:1-2
Please don't make the mistake of supposing that God's love in you comes and goes in response to your spiritual temperature. God's love doesn't vacillate according to how many victories you have over sin,
or how many times you sue His name in your prayers.
His love for you goes deeper then mere affection or surface infatuation.
Let the matchless love of God sweep away your doubt and fears.
You already have God's attention and you will never lost it. -Jonie Erickson Tada
Do we sometimes desire something exciting and new?
Lord You know our desires!
You know how to fill them!
You know all our thoughts and insecurities which lead us to either elevate and obsession or hatred.
Guard our hearts Lord!
Sometimes we see so much more of our shortness and impatience with people!
"No ear has heard, no eye has seen any God besides you, who acts on behalf of those who wait for Him." Isaiah 64:4
Draw near to God and He will draw near to You.
Be humble and teachable.
Give God access to your ambitions, fears, and character inconsistencies.
He will transform and renew you.
Whether God has us in the land of opportunity with more tastes than time,
or tucked away in a place of obscurity with little to do and where no on can find us,
we must remember this:
We are never out of His care, never far away from His heart.
In every season if we trust Him, He will lead us beside the still waters and to sacred spaces of replenishment and growth.
We learn that we are not what we do,
we are simply someone He enjoys.
Never think that you can accomplish great things apart from God.
And yet, live expectantly knowing that nothing is impossible with Him.
God promises to make something new of us.
He will breath life into our weary soul.
Don't worry about forward movement.
Learn the essentials of rest and trust in this season and one day you will step into the best of what God has for you. -Your Beautiful Purpose..
