Hi there,
How's your day going?
It's has been such a interesting time for me lately.
I've had yet another change in job, i'm now baking at a supermarket, which I enjoy.
Let alone all the things I buy and bring home.
So how do I sum up this year?
I've worked 3 different jobs, 2 are on going.
Sometimes it's like that, you plan your day or year, and you take it to God, and sometimes he changes course.
What you thought you were on the right page you find out that God is chapters ahead.
I have today off, so I got the mail, and will go into town soon.
But as I was reading the junk mail, a certian sport flyer came out, and on the top it had in big bold writing.
''Because they said I couldn't''
Now that might not make a whole world of sense for you today, you probably don't know in what context ''they'' is.
We need to be careful not just to hop to the next new thing out there, or the thing that is exciting and new.
You might feel like you've been held back by something, like water in a canal gate once you hit that barrier, you feel like a dinner.
Perhaps you keep hitting that thing that blocks you, perhaps you're not getting the help you need, or perhaps people aren't listening or helping you as much as you like them too.
Perhaps you've forgiven and forgiven, over and and over, and you've played your last card.
Perhaps they said you can't take that back, or maybe if people looked a bit deeper into things they would get to understand.
The thing is, we feel like we dont have time, we don't have time to review about good service, or encourage that person who is mean, or simply being thankful.
What if people just left us to our own devices, and not cared, what about the child next door or the homeless person, that if you heard their story, you couldn't beleive it.
It's all very well, to wear our Christian badge, or go to the home group, but we can't just book God into our day, and pray when we need him to come through for us.
My thing is, take the time to laugh to enjoy life, don't just think oh that's over and done with i'm on to the next thing to do on my list.
God is working in everything, he's working where you don't think any one or anything can change.
God is there, in the middle of the fight, when it gets ugly, in the times when you just to rest from it.
So if you're tired from the fight, if you're just lonely, in the battle.
If you're wondering why on earth you do it, you do it for God.
Not for man.
God's love is unconditonal, you can trust him in the middle of your brokeness, in the things that you thought were under control.
The more you talk to him the more he tells you what to do.
You are wanted by God, every part of you, you are wanted by God.
That's all I have to say, you are wanted by God he wants you on his team, you don't need to do anything else to get noticed, you don't need to have the certificates to say you've passed church 1.0.1.
That's all I have for you today.
Chloe
