Over the last week I have felt God teaching me even more, I have felt Him telling me to be totally trusting in Him. Everything I read and studied in my devotional times was about “Trust & Obey”
It really hit me that, although I do trust God and I am a Christian, do I trust God with my ENTIRE life, with my everything? How much of my life do I trust Him with. Jesus is my best friend, what do you do with your best mate?? You hang out all the time; you share what’s bothering you, what you are going through and what you like. Tell him or her how you are getting on, you ask them for advice. I don’t treat Jesus like this often enough. I don’t hang out with Him as much as I should. I don’t ask his advice often enough. I don’t tell Him what is on my heart or what’s bothering me as much as I should. He loves me so much, he wants nothing more than a personal relationship where I share my secrets, where I tell him my desires, I tell him my worries, I tell Him I love Him and where we just hang out together.
If I just trust Him more and obey Him in his entirety, I will be satisfied completely. I will know my purpose; I will know what He wants from me and what He wants to do with my life. I pray that God will reveal to me what I am supposed to do and where he wants me to go, all I need to do is obey the words of one of my favourite verses in Scripture, Psalm 37:4.
“Delight yourself in the Lord and He will give you the desires of your heart.”
When God says to delight in Him all He means is that you trust and obey Him fully.
"This is what I feel life is about. To live a life following Christ so close that the very dirt he stirred up as he walked will cover my feet. I attempt to do my best to follow him and when the day is done...hopefully, my feet are in need of a major washing."
I read this quote this morning on my friend’s facebook and I thought to myself, “that’s how I want my life to be, I want dirty feet ☺
