It may be hard for an egg to turn into a bird: it would be a jolly sight harder for it to learn to fly while remaining an egg. We are like eggs at present. And you cannot go on indefinitely being just an ordinary, decent egg. We must be hatched or go bad.- C.S. Lewis
CS Lewis always makes me feel like I am wasting my life. I must be hatched.
Now, the good news is, I am in a very slow hatching process. The other good news is, I am not in denial about needing to pick up the pace a little.
You and I, we weren't made to sit still. We are moving. We just have to be pointed the right direction or else things get sticky. I am asking God to reveal my heart, because the rubbish in there is keeping me from moving. I am also asking God to help me, because when I see my heart, I just want to lay on the couch and think about something else, like eating.
God, give us grace to see and change. Amen, let's stand.
This is pretty good for a fake blog!

ReplyDeleteso much vastness that could be covered with our wings.
just listening to His specific plans.
simple love.
Jess, you are not a bird. I saw you when you were a baby. NOT A BIRD.-G
ReplyDeleteI like to eat eggs.... and chickens.
ReplyDeletecomplete my thought:
ReplyDeletethere's vastness
yet a certain single path is for us
obedience is many times
remembering His faithfulness
{He wants us to remember}
and thankfulness
and
sharing the permanence of His ways
agree people? : )
Yeah, just this morning I was thinking about how important it is to REMEMBER His faithfulness and His work of salvation.
ReplyDeleteI know that some days I can be the most rotten egg in the hole batch and God has been hleping me with that and its more my toungue than my motions and that little piece of mussle gets me in a hole heep of mess. But anyway I want God to live in my heart and if He is going to do that than that means I have to clean my heart out so he can live there cause he can't be the one thing of my life and self thoughts and anger selfpitty and all that other gunk so He gets the thrown!!! YAY I declaire that over my life right now!! and any one else that is struggleing with these emotions!! Amen
ReplyDeleteCorrection, helping not hleping
