This morning as I was fussing with my daughters over their cleaning skills, or lack of, I started hearing God ask me a question. BUT I was to busy fussing, in my mind I thought as soon as I get to work I'll stop and talk with you God.

As I arrived at work I realized that I had a TON of stuff to do, so in my mind I thought, on my way home.

I should be home now, but I'm still at work because a friend of mine here at the office lost her husband unexpectedly this week thru a car wreck. We are heading over to the funeral home to love on her.

But as I sit here I realize two big things!

#1 How crazy am I to put God off
#2 I don't like funeral homes and I struggle with what to say

As I was thinking on these two things, (still putting God off??) I realized that it is almost time for the conference! Two more days. Can you believe it?

Now that I have finally slowed down long enough to listen to God, his question to me, may be one He wants you to ponder on.


What do you want from this conference?
When Peter first started realizing who Jesus was he was following him, when Jesus turned around and ask him, 'what do you want'. Peter I think was caught off guard and said something like 'I want to go to your house'. (This is a very loose translation as it is what we call the Jenny version, I will put the actually text up later tonight but for now just work with me!)
In my heart I feel like God is wanting to do a work in us, through Debbie's message. But maybe we need to start pondering it, so we can say to God, this is what I need. This is what I need to hear from you on. All through the Word of God he tells us to cry out to Him.
In order to cry out though, we may have to know what we are looking for! Personally, I have this one area that is tender and I keep on picking at the scab, so it stays tender. I need God to apply His Word to that area and heal it!
Think about it, and if you are willing, post a comment and share what you are wanting to hear from God about during this conference. Go ahead and start calling out to him!
(if you need help posting a comment on the side of the blog is some instructions that may help you.)

i want, no i need rest. to rest in God, to rest in the fact that i don't have to prove anything, to just plain breathe and rest knowing God is good...
for anynom...
the first step is to find someone to talk to... you're not horrible, no more than the rest of us. we are the only ones who use a scale to weigh our sin...it's all bad. but it looks alot darker when you hide it. ask God to send you someone who you can trust and who will walk with you...and listen to you especially when you wonder if God is.

I'm a mom to 3 girls, who I'm crazy about! I'm married to my High School sweetie and now my daughter is the age I was when I first met him! Unbelieveable! I'm trying harder and harder to make Jesus the complete center of my life, and you all help me in more ways than you know!

Jeremiah 17:8

He will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.
