Thai Time...no bounds

So the last few days, actually about a week or so, the Lord has just been working on me in the simplest of terms...

Very simply, He has been showing me through His word and people around me, that His love has no bounds.

When I feel alone and on my own, tired, frustrated, worn out, dry, uncertain, scared, or whatever...His love covers all of that. It doesn't have expectations and it's not bound by disappointment. No matter what, He will still be madly in love with me!

So, I am just trying to walk in the confidence I have in God's love. I am confidently resting in the knowledge and surrounding of God's love for me. He cares about how I feel and where I'm at and what I'm doing and what I'm going through.

God's love is unending and deserves to be praised. When things get out of control and I feel dry or overwhelmed or whatever else...I will be confident in God's love and I will praise Him because He is worthy and good.

Thai Time...feeling a little dry

I know I haven't posted anything for awhile. I have been going through a bit of a dry season. I have been having a really hard time in my alone time with the Lord. I feel like the Lord just isn't talking to me...

I know that the Lord promises to make Himself known and I absolutely believe that promise and I am holding on to it for dear life. I have seen Him do it in my life in so many ways. It's just discouraging. I feel like the Psalmist when he cries out, "How long will you keep yourself from me?" That has been the reoccurring question in my mind...How long Lord? Not just How long, but also for what?

How long?
For what?

I don't know...For now please keep me in prayer. I am trying to remain faithful and steadfast and pressing through in faith, knowing that the Lord is bigger than me and my circumstances, and that I am in Christ. I am covered by everything that He is. I may feel far away but I know with everything inside of me that He is with me...never far away and never with His back turned. He is there with out stretched arms...

I love you all and I will be writing again soon. I Promise!!!

Thai Time...Day Unknown

Sorry the long break between posts...Things have been a bit topsy turvy the last few weeks. I have been in a bit of a funk and to be honest, haven't really been faithfully ding my Thai time. I find it really easy to "get busy" when I am trying really hard to just be ok. I have been so focused on not feeling the way that I have been that I have forgotten to stop and let God bring me out of where I have been. Each day is better and realization is the first step. Once I figured recognized the fact that I was semi-starving for the Lord, it became really easy to pay attention to the food that the Lord was trying to give me.

Now let's get back to business...Thai time! I don't know what day I'm suppose to be on but I guess it doesn't really matter that much...today is today.

The simple idea that “God made today” opens up so many different aspects of God’s character and of how that character relates to people as individuals. The fact of the matter is this, God did not just make today, He made today for me. Even after the fall of man, God still desired to be near me. God sent His only son, the son of the living God, Jesus Christ, to die for me. He paid the price for my sin and shame. He paid our way into relationship with the creator of everything.

The beauty of the cross is this, once you take hold of it, once you let it in your life, it is there forever. God never walks away, He never lets go. He is in everything I do and everywhere I go. No matter where I go or what I do, God is there with me, holding me up and drawing me in. God draws me in, He ushers me into His presence for a very simple reason, simply to say, “I Love You! And I want you!” God loves me and He only wants to be near me. God desires for us to fall madly in love with Him, the way He is with us.

It is because of that love that I try to wake up every morning with the attitude of “this is the day that the Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it.” God made this day for me, He made today so that I could walk with Him. He made today so that I could love people the way that He has so graciously and wonderfully loved me. God made this day especially for me.

Next time you wake up and can not think of a good reason to get out of bed, remember that God thought of you when he put that day into motion. God thought about all the time that He would get to spend with you on that day.

Praise God for reminders of His love and grace and provision. In the midst of chaos, misunderstanding, and craziness, God gives us simple reminders of how much He really does care for us and how much we really do mean to Him. I am so thankful for God provision in my life and for the knowledge that today is God's day!

TODAY IS GOD'S DAY!!!
