You said what...???

How many of you can hear god speaking to you? I know this has always been hard for me but I can tell you it is becoming easier as I go deeper into him. The title for today's blog comes from him telling me on the way back from dropping Abbey off at school listening to worship music and all he said is, "you said what?" So what happens from here is his words not mine. (Can I tell you theis is way out of the box for me to be blogging). We so often look for answers to questions in situations especially when things are not going as planned. We put our worldly thoughts and solutions way ahead of gods plan. I do it all the time. When you make a decision to walk away from a high paying job with lots of perks the world thinks your nuts, trust me. But all that doesn't matter I have gotten more out of these three days of blogging than I ever recieved in my job. Quick story to how I go here today, in November of last year I had become very sick and know one could figure out why? I had all the signs of colon cancer and both Jodi and I were scared. I remember telling Jodi if this job kills me I'm going to be ticked!! Long story short after many tests and medications I got better but promised Jodi and the girls I was going to change a lot of things. That is when the seed was truly planted and god began to water it. Jodi and I started planning to walk away from my job and start this new life on our own. In April we actually had given notice on our rental house that we were leaving June 1, it felt right in the worldly moment I was in with my frustration and stress level at a all time high. We traveled back to Alexandria for spring break with the girls, things were not sitting right in my spirit. I was struggling with the decision and my spirit just didn't feel right about it. I had clearly put my timing on the situation as a reaction to the stress. I sat down and sought god timing and wisdom, on the bike path just outside Nana's house I got my answer, god and the holy spirit clearly spoke to my soul and said "be patient" those two words made everything very clear. Jodi met me on the path she was frustrated about a business deal she was working on, I call it a devil distraction, I looked at her and said call the owners were staying a little while longer, god is working on the timing. Can I tell you from that moment on everything just fell into place perfectly. That an act of simple obedience turned the tides of my life to where I am today and things I thought were mountains, with just a whisper from him, were blown out of my path. Is all this were doing easy? No, it is hard, you still have to do your part and the devil see's plenty areas to attack but standing firm on the word like in Matthew 6:33 god will provide everything if you trust in faith. He is speaking to you today in some form, remove the noise out of your life and find some quite time to read his word and open your soul to the holy spirits message, I can tell you it will be good, but will you do what he says?
