I Chronicles 12:32 was the focus of Paster Bruce's message yesterday.
And of the sons of Issachar, men who understood the times, with knowledge of what
Israel should do, their chiefs were two hundred; and their kinsmen were at their
command.
A call to action to seek the mind of God and act on His will. We prayed last night as a family for God's direction for all of us and His wisdom and discernment to understand it. Even more the ability to obey.
Then this morning as I open up my Bible study of Ruth this is what I read:
"I wonder if God is calling you to spread your wings over someone. A person who might not look like you, think like you, or shop where you shop. You may have to go to Africa or Brazil to find them; he or she may live next door or be related to you. Either way, it is time for us to give of our lives as Boaz gave of his." The Living Room Series Ruth by Kelly Minter
God hears. He knows what's in our heart. Quite frankly it's a little scary to me to follow where God leads 100%. I like to be in control--or at least the illusion that I am in control. What if God asks me to do this..... or that......Really though, being in God's will for our lives is the safest place we can be---even if it is outside our comfort zone because God is our Comfort in that Zone.
