The Lord

is so good.

I went to a special service at a local church last night and I prayed for a girl there. The Lord had a lot to say to her and it seemed to hit home. Then I went back to my seat and He said to have her pray for me.

I was a little confused because I'd never done that before but I was obedient. When I walked up to her again she was like...huh? And I just said "trust what you're hearing". We stood there for a little bit and I told her there was no pressure. But I knew He was going to tell her something.

Sure enough she looks up at me and says, "I'm only getting one thing." And I say, "Ok! What is it?" And she says, "patience". I almost started crying. I didn't want to assume what the Lord was talking about as to patience with what or who but I do know that there are a few areas in my life right now that I don't understand.

Then we started talking and she was telling me who I helped her because the Lord tells her things but she doesn't always trust them. And this helped prove to her that she does hear the Lord clearly.

And I told her that she helped me because there are areas in my life, where I really felt strongly the Lord speaking to me, and it looks like things are almost going backward. I thought it was just my selfish thoughts and desires that I WANTED to be what the Lord said but when certain events occurred, I was dumbfounded. And by her saying that. It reminded me that I do hear the Lord. And in the case which I am talking about. The Lord would speak to me in times where I didn't want to have or hear anything to do with this situation. Believe me. To this day, I'm asking the Lord to remove things from my path because I'd rather have a clean start. But unfortunately, not happening so much. Besides. The Lord knows me better then me, and knows what's best for me.

He is so good. Because I stepped out in faith, a girl got confirmation, and because she got a little boldness and moved in it, she helped me tremendously.

It was crazy.

I think I'm going to start writing all my "God touching people in my path" encounters.
Not because I'm so great, but because HE is so great. To encourage people to step out and follow that deep call they hear but are afraid of.

I love you Lord.
Goodnight.
