The truth o...I love what you have to say, Lynn!!! The truth of your statement "Most of the stuff we busy ourselves with now, won't matter 50 years from now" made me think about the truth in my life is that much of what I "busy myself with" won't matter in a week!<br /><br />Over the years I have learned that I can be very honest with the Lord. So I hear myself telling Him on more than one morning..."I feel rushed, Lord. I feel like I need to get going and I don't have time to sit here with You. Help me, Lord, to calm my heart and give you some still time." What begins as a moment of "gutting it out" (making a choice like you mentioned) <br />ends with God meeting me in a Scripture or in a worship song or in the midst of a prayer. He is good to love us where we are and encourage us like a good father when we make a right choice.<br /><br /> Thanks for your comment, Lynn!!<br /><br />Cherrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17687753526720638459noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6187423214160528044.post-5726475468846973092013-06-30T15:43:07.779-07:002013-06-30T15:43:07.779-07:00A while back, I read a different book about Praise...A while back, I read a different book about Praise & worship. I began to look at it from a new perspective, like that of a life style choice. An every day type of decision. This book is an excellent book on this subject, and this chapter on being "still" screaming my name. I run as fast as I can , as hard as I can most days. My mind runs a million miles a minute with tasks I want to accomplish. Some important, some.. not so much. Anyway, when I really think about worship... only God truly knows my heart. Hands raised or not, singing or stoic, only God truly knows. But to think about it is interesting to me.... When I began to lose family members, heaven became a more real place to me. I find myself asking questions like, When we sing Sunday mornings... Do we join the angels or do they join us??? Studying in Revelation... What does The Throne look like or the 4 beasts for that matter, What about the emerald rainbow, how majestic that must be.<br />??? Will we see Jesus as the Lion or the Lamb, or both???? I have spent time at the feet of Jesus, in sorrow & in joy... and when you do, there is nothing quite like it, for sure!! Like Beth Moore says "There's no high like The Most High." I have heard a heart of devotion always out produces a heart of duty. Let us sit at His precious feet and grow more and more in love with him, more and more confident in Him. Most of the stuff we busy ourselves with now, won't matter 50 years from now. It just makes more sense to slow down and be still.Lynn Haneganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14228412732280271384noreply@blogger.com
