He Just Wanted Me to Tell Him

So yesterday I finally confessed about the problem I had been having while reading the scripture. Confession is the first step to repentance. I knew God knew. But he wanted me to talk to him about, to come to him and say, I'm sorry, I messed up.

I know what it is like to be in the darkest struggle -- to make it through by studying and meditating on scripture. And God led me to Proverbs 26, with the first 10 or so verses talking about foolishness and wisdom....Lord, I need wisdom! To know that something will remove you from a dangerous or uncomfortable position, but not doing it, is foolishness. Wisdom learns from the past and applies the lessons learned.

I listened to Beth Moore this morning on the topic of "My Determined Purpose, 5/21". This is what she said
We haven't had a fresh work of God in months and maybe years because we're waiting for Him to have a fresh work in somebody else's life and He's going "You know what, they're praying for you!"
So tonight we're just going to do the 'my' thing - just 'my'.
If you catch yourself even applying this to another soul, ask God to just stop you in your tracks tonight. Because this is about you and me. We cannot determine anybody else's purpose for them...
