gratitude

Distracted

Lately I’ve been so preoccupied. I’ve had so many random thoughts. My dreams have run amok. I don’t know what God has next for us. My heart is to minister to women and girls. Besides for daily interactions, I just don’t know where to begin. After praying and seeking God, I feel that I’m no closer to an answer.

At work, I’ve been mostly existing. I know it’s not my calling, but it is a necessity right now. In this economy, a job is a blessing. Right now I am seeking God for renewed focus. Peace in the midst of uncertainty. Gratitude no matter what comes our way. Faith in the One who loves and cares for me unconditionally.

    I don’t know if this is an encouragement or not, but you are not alone. I have the same conflict, and I have been talking to others in the same place.

    Praying for you, my lovely friend.

    I completely understand. I am always in prayer about where God wants me to be in life. I just hope that I am listening to His calling and not just listening to my own voice. That is so hard to discern. I will pray for you to follow your dreams of ministry. BTW, I think you would be great in that field!!

    Karen,
    I do find it encouraging because sometimes you feel like you aren’t Christian enough if you don’t always know exactly what God wants you to do at all times. Thanks so much.

    Christina,
    I often wonder if my own voice is the loudest one. Thanks for the vote of confidence. Sometimes I feel inadequate, but I am willing.
