Ordinary people just trying to follow God!
How It All Started

If I would only pay attention!

2 Corinthians 5:7 (NLT) 
"For we live by believing and not by seeing."

Do I BELIEVE God...or do I believe what I SEE?

There are two sides to this thought. 
God never runs out of love or time or patience or peace.
God's plan is never incomplete, even if I fail to understand it all. What I see in front of me is not the whole picture. 
I need - more than ever - to look and see, and then to trust and believe that He is in control...of ALL that I see. 
I need to believe that, despite what I see around me and what I see lacking in myself, He chooses to use his inadequate people. Just.like.me.


*Yes, this is an old devotional...that I have been meaning to post about. Time management...moving to the top of my prayer list! :)
