Hey! It’s me! The girl behind iPhone photos. As the photo suggests, I truly do live on Jesus and coffee. One of my friends recently had to take a break from coffee. It stressed me out to think that could easily be me. When she was able to have a small cup again the other day, I was truly relieved for her. I know this if I had to give up coffee, God would make it possible. I just really really really really really really hope He doesn’t feel it necessary to teach me that I can live without my favorite beverage. At least not now. Anyways... Lately I have been getting back into fitness. I used to be one of those crazy people who worked out 5-7 days a week. I haven’t been that girl for awhile but as I ease back in, I feel a piece of myself coming back—glory to God! I like the way I feel, even though it’s messing with my blood sugar levels. Did you know I am a type 1 diabetic? I have had diabetes for 30 years. I don’t talk a lot about it because growing up the shy kid, it placed way too much focus on me when I wanted to blend in. Now, technology makes it much easier to not have it be my defining feature. I need to back track because if you’ve met me in the last 17 years, you probably were surprised by the “shy” comment. Yes! Believe it or not, I was the shyest person in the world. What?! I was scared to talk in class. I went to college and apparently got over it. Because of my past, I am drawn to the quiet people. I know they have a lot to say if only someone will make them feel at ease enough to join the conversation. I am thankful for all the people who went out of their way to make this former shy kid feel comfortable and accepted. . Wow! I really jumped around there, but it has gotten me wondering. What defined you in the past that doesn’t define you anymore? Or has your personality not changed that much?

All seemed lost for David as Absalom tried to usurp him. Nevertheless, David recognized and trusted in the Lord’s sovereignty: . “Then the king said to Zadok, “Take the ark of God back into the city. If I find favor in the Lord’s eyes, he will bring me back and let me see it and his dwelling place again. But if he says, ‘I am not pleased with you,’ then I am ready; let him do to me whatever seems good to him.”” ‭‭2 Samuel‬ ‭15:25-26‬ . May we all approach life and every situation as such. May I trust God to handle every situation without me wasting time worrying. . Glory to God!

I love how Joab intervened to help David reconcile with his son Absalom. The truth is that we serve the God of reconciliation. Sometimes it’s not possible because the other person does not want to or because it’s not safe to do so, but even when we can’t reconcile in person, we can reconcile with our hearts with the help of the Lord. Glory to God!

Then Joshua asked them, “How long are you going to wait before taking possession of the remaining land the Lord the God of your ancestors has given to you?” Joshua 18:3 . Sometimes, when God tells us to move, we hesitate and doubt what He’s telling us is really Him. I’m there now. I have some things that I’m trying to be obedient in. I’m looking for confirmation, and because of the awesome @priscillashirer study #discerningthevoiceofgod I am focusing extra hard on discernment. I’m waiting for clarity and am at peace with that decision. No rushing here. But when He says it’s time, I pray I don’t hesitate. I tend to be a rusher. I get an idea and run with it. Not today. Today I wait. But someday He will say it’s go time. So in the meantime, I will prepare and pray. Before God sent the Israelites to take the Promised Land, He had them explore it and write a description {Joshua 18:8}. That’s where He has me and I’m going to enjoy the process even though it’s less glamorous, even though it makes me even more excited for go time in the future and I want to jump ahead. God is working on me and for me. Glory to God!

I know... Jesus is not mentioned in 2 Samuel 13 {neither is God for that matter}, but Amnon’s obsession with his half-sister needed some divine intervention. We all have our struggles with sin. Jesus is the only one who can liberate us from sin’s control. Amnon’s story reminds me of that important and necessary fact. . Amnon’s reaction after he attacked his sister also reminds me of how awful I feel after sinning. I hate myself. Thankfully, I have a God willing to forgive me over and over again and who takes away my shame. . Glory to God!

But the word of God increased and multiplied. . The apostles were opposed from all sides, yet God used them to successfully spread the gospel. What a blessing to be a part of that, to get to see the fruit of your labor for the kingdom. Most of us never get to see the impact we have when planting seeds or watering someone’s faith journey. The apostles did. They suffered, and the Lord blessed their suffering. Glory to God!
