June 2019 One of my sons had a job years ago and when hired the boss told him that he was there to be interrupted. I hate being interrupted when I have plans. How different an outlook though if you expected interruptions. This entry was a good reminder of what my BOSS expects of me!!!
This reference came up in a devotional I was reading. Israel was at war with the surrounding nations and they were really scared..
Jehoshaphat prayed: O our God, will You not judge them? For we are powerless before this great multitude who are coming against us; nor do we know what to do, but our eyes are on You. 2Chron 20:12 NASB
From the journal . . . . January 2007
Lord – I feel a strong need to know what I am going to do. Do You want to change that in me?
And I Believe God said . . .
I want you to be at peace. You relate your possible success to being prepared. You like to measure your success by what you’ve done.
Yes, that’s true Lord. How else would I measure my success?
You don’t have to. Isn’t it enough that I am your master and teacher? Your trainer? Trust Me to mold you and use you for My purposes.
Lord, I’m afraid that I won’t use the resources You’ve given me and that You will say “You didn’t even put it in the bank so I could earn interest”. * Lord, You’ve given me so much. You talk to me and You love me so well. How can I respond appropriately? * Matt 25:26-30
Be alert. Watch for Me always. Especially when you get interrupted. Accept those interruptions gracefully. Look for ways to show my love. You do that and I will shine My light on what should be observed by others for My glory.
1John 2:10
