God-Inspired

This morning I spent some time re-reading past entries.

What I saw really surprised me.

I saw a journey.
I saw God's hand.
I saw Jesus' redemption.
I saw the Holy Spirit's revelations.

As I poured over the posts, I thought to myself, "I wrote that?" Some of it is thought provoking. Some is boring. Some is confusing! However, none of it is new.

Since the beginning of the human race there has been struggle. God even got fed up enough with the whole mess of things to douse most everyone to death and start over with one family who had it in them to stick it out with the Deliverer.

No doubt, struggles continue and we are all on our own personal journey. I know beyond a shadow of a doubt where I want to be at the end of my hike here on earth. I know too, that I want to take as many people with me as I can!

While I read through what was going down in my little corner of the prairies, I felt strengthened. Strengthened because some days I am not sure how we are going to make it to the next. Some days I wake up and ask God, 'what do you have for me today?' and by the end of the day, I realize He has been silent. Reading all I've written tells me one thing -

While God may sometimes be silent, He is always working!

Writing, journaling, storytelling - these are all proof of the hope of things not seen.

My prayer is that you too, are strengthened by reflecting on what God is doing in your life.
