APRIL 1st

MORNING (ON) STAR)

The lost heart spoke with obvious angst: T's were dotted; I's were crossed.

"Ugh. God make me so sick... Why won't He answer me... Here I am begging for direction... & He won't answer me... Asking for guidance & He just keep giving me the coldest shoulder. Ugh!!! This some b.s. Make me sick... ugh!!!... Next time you talk to God, ask Him what the heck I'm supposed to be doing... maybe, He'll answer you."

Dear Friend;

Heavenly greetings.

May God bless the reading of words, graciously granted me to give you.

Amen.

Friend, God has heard your multiple prayers & shouts to be led in the right direction. When you call - He answers (Jeremiah 29:11-14).

God didn't tell me what He wants you to do but... I was given the privilege to encourage you.

To remind you: Often times the answer to our prayers, lay hidden in God's word. Starting our day off with prayer & reading the Bible makes us vulnerable to hearing God's voice. (Smile). As He speaks to us through scriptures we're given that much sought after (coveted) divine direction. Amen.

Circumstances of your current state remind me of Jeremiah; the weeping always crying prophet. Life found him expressing likewise sentiments, minus the foul verbiage...

"O Lord, I know it is not within the power of man to map his life & plan his course..." Jeremiah 10:23 (The Living Bible)

Personally I use this verse as a stepping stone to routinely pray - "God, guide the path of my feet. Amen."

We can see this philosophy engaged in Acts 22:6. I love how Paul mentioned, "as I made MY journey..." which gives us clarity & insight into his motivation: HIMSELF. Confronted by Jesus Saul remembered that God is the Leader & we are the troops. Versed in the Old Testament; well acquainted with stories of Moses & others given orders by God, he requested some - LORD what will You have me to do?

Friend, may that be your heart's prayer as you arise every morning: as you find yourself in the clutches of forks in the road, detours, & traffic jams.

LORD, WHAT WILL YOU HAVE ME TO DO? :) :) :)
