I'm a bit in this spot right now. A situation where we all make a decision one way or another yet I see it being a decision that only should go ONE WAY, THE RIGHT WAY, MY WAY!! Inside I feel like this little girl kicking and screaming to try and get my way.On the outside, I am this grown woman who talks to someone about the same decision I 'get' to make and to me it is a no brainer yet I have to talk inside of my head and bite my tongue and say, "Lord it's your way!" Sometimes I find myself even trying to convince the Lord who IS God, all knowing, sovereign and THE ONE in control!
So, as I go about this, it is a CHOICE I am making to keep my mouth in check, my heart in check, and PRAY that the Lord's will will be done on earth as it is in heaven and be happy with a good attitude no matter what the outcome! Isn't that being a big girl of me? (smile again)





That's a big girl!!! Bite your tongue..it's always soooo much sweeter when you allow the Lord to do it and you don't muddy things up. When I say you...I mean "we"...I battle this as well..but I know that when I do keep my mouth shut and my prayers open it is a BLESSING and I don't make trouble. Love ya!! Your heart is in the right place...just our mouth that isn't. hehe.

ReplyDeleteHere from Finding Heaven...this post made me smile. A talk with Eve? You and me both! Thanks for sharing =)
ReplyDeleteOh, I can so relate, sweet lady. I'm praying for sweet peace to enter your heart.
ReplyDeleteYes, how well I can relate! I've been struggling with this a lot. I'm sure my way really IS Gods way though . . . ya see - I don't think I've come as far as you have! ha! :)
ReplyDeleteI can relate to the words in this post. I know that sometimes, I struggle to be a "big girl" when it comes to checking-in with God first instead of just doing things "my way." Oh yeah! I know this feeling all too well. You're not alone in your struggles.
ReplyDeleteMy friend, you KNOW I'm the same way!!
