"29 “Many women do noble things,
but you surpass them all.”
30 Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting;
but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised.
31 Honor her for all that her hands have done,
and let her works bring her praise at the city gate."

Proverbs 31:29-31

New International Version (NIV)

Yo-Yo Ma - Méditation (Thaïs)

If I could turn myself into a piece of music, this is what I would become. Note for note it fills me, keeps me, and lingers long after it’s finished.

“If anyone, then, knows the good they ought to do and doesn’t do it, it is sin for them.” (James 4:17, NIV)
Many people expect the voice of God to boom like a loudspeaker, but scripture tells us that He speaks in a still, small voice. To us, it seems like an impression inside.
We think, “I know I should go visit my parents. I know I shouldn’t eat so many sweets. I know I should stay home and do my schoolwork.” The “I knows” are God talking to you. Don’t ignore it. Learn to be quick to obey.
A lot of times we know what we should do, but we make excuses and reason it out. “I’ll do it later. I’m busy now.” But, we have to understand God doesn’t ask us to do it for His sake. He asks us to do it for our own sake. I’ve learned that before God will release big blessings, He will give you small tests. Too often we dismiss it and think, “Oh, that’s no big deal.” But if you don’t pass these small tests, it will keep you from the big things God has in store.
Today, don’t put off the little things that you know you should be doing any longer. Take a step of faith and obey Him. As you’re faithful in the little things and pass the small tests, He’ll lead you into the greater things He has in store for you.

I’m truly struggling.

I know so many people. I know so many people. I know too many people to think that they’re all going to hell. I don’t trust myself. It is absolutely impossible to know if I’m right. Everyone thinks they’re right. EVeryone. I don’t know if I have the right to tell someone I’m right anymore. God help me.
The only thing in certain of is that God is important, and that a life lived for myself is. Life wasted. I’m totally open to any path at this point.

spiritualinspiration:

What can we do to put ourselves in a position to hear God’s voice? We have to make time in our daily lives to get quiet. David said of the Lord in Psalm 23:2, “He leads me beside quiet waters.” Today I want to encourage you to find those quiet waters where you can get alone with the Lord. It may be a room in your house, outside under the trees, or some other place where you can shut out the noise and distractions of the world for just a few precious minutes. The key to renewing your mind, body and spirit is to develop the habit and discipline of meditating on the Word of God every day — even if it is for just a moment.

Ahhhh

Really hard week. 

I feel like I’m getting pulled in every direction. I need to keep moving forward. I need to keep moving forward. I know what right, I know I need to care, and I know I need to be serving people. I love God, I love people. I’m doing what I can.

Then I know I’m all good.

I’m giving up a lot of control right now, trusting God. 

Keep moving foreward.

Needing  strength, endurance, and compassion
