Practicing

Yesterday while painting at the Boiler Room I had to put what God is teaching me (you know loving your enemy) into practice. I was enjoying the Jesus music I had playing and was just really relaxed and happy as I was working. Then someone else started talking ... and though they weren't even in the same room, never mind the same floor, as me, I could hear almost every word (most of which was profanity).
So instead of just turning up my music to cover them I decided to pray for them.
I can't explain to you how good it felt. I was overwhelmed with joy and peace.

Why don't I always do thing Gods way?!

Trust

"Beautiful Mercy do what You have to do
Jealous Lover do what You have to do
I trust You, Jesus
Just have Your way in my life
I submit to Your glory
Just have Your way in my heart"

I need to say this to the Father more often. All of us need to say this more.
It's now Global Bridegroom Fast. A time when I spend hours on end in prayer, but my point isn't that, it is that I hand over my life to the Lord during this time. These days tend to be my best during the month and I have realized that my life should be like this every day. I need to trust, submit and have Him do what He has to do with my life.

Man do I love IHOP-KC
