God Knows Just What Our Hearts Need

Oh, how great are God’s riches and wisdom and knowledge! How
impossible it is for us to understand His decisions and His ways!

Romans
11:33 (NLT)

In
obedience to God’s prompting to reprioritize my mornings, I prayed before
opening emails or Facebook. I praised God for His magnificence and marveled at how
beyond us and mind blowing He is. Near tears, I thanked Him for the privilege
of serving Him in my writing and teaching ministries. The honor of walking
alongside others as they grow in faith is both humbling and rewarding.

 

Then
bam! The Apostle Paul’s praise to God was the Verse of the Day from
BibleGateway.com. The ‘coincidence’ isn’t random. God answered my prayer for an
experience of Him that would recharge my energy and passion (read more about
that in yesterday’s post).

 

This
convergence of prayer and scripture is God’s reminder that He never left. It
was I who neglected our time together and suffered indifference. By accepting
His invitation to have tea with Him before opening social media, I can see His
presence more clearly.

 

God
had more to say as the morning progressed.

 

The
small group of women I lead spontaneously commended my influence in their
growing faith. Their appreciation and God’s affirmation of my ministry lifted
my spirit. Indeed, I am incredibly proud of these ladies.

 

God
knew just what my heart needed – rededicated relationship. He persisted in
getting me back to quiet time and then rewarded me with His voice and a pat on
the back.

 

Thank
you God. You are so amazing!

God knows just what our hearts need.
Act on His prompting.
