Consult the Lord

There is a weight that we carry that we are not required to. The yoke of Christ that is easy and the burden that is light provides a rationale to cast our cares and not just the cost of our salvation onto the shoulders of our Lord. This morning in prayer and thanksgiving to God I told Him about uneasiness that I had been feeling for the past few days. This time of candid sharing brought to light sin in my heart that I had not repented for. After the repentance I was relieved of anger and tension and my limited earthly perspective that had caused the ill will toward my day’s activities. I walk lighter today because I serve a God who desires to be consulted.

A moment of Thanks

The new year has begun and my family is a wonderful blessing. My daughter is still going strong in Kindergarten and reading 4th grade books. Daddy is so proud. My wife is writing and composing music and ministering effectively. Ministry is growing and my Pastor remains a world class discipler to me. Days like these are beautiful. Thank you Jesus.
