<...”Over time I’ve come to believe that God is never doing ‘nothing’ in my life. Wether I perceive it or not is irrelevant”....>

The Christian walk was never intended to be an easy walk.....in fact most of us know that life in this fallen world is tough, more than not, in maintaining life as He wants us to live. But as one wise senior one stated...

“life is tough for Christians but along the way God affords us these wonderful moments when we enjoy a long ignored sunset, or a babies smile so often missed, or a family gathering and the sound of the Hum only a family knows when together.”

We miss these moments because life today requires we “run” through it........IMO the only thing we really should be running with is the Gospel Message and it’s teachings when that door is open wide to do so. Otherwise enjoy those moments and Him in them...even when life is dry and seemingly uneventful....HE seems to always show up in the most unusual and unexpected ways! (smiling)

I’ve been in a situation recently where I’ve been plopped into someone’s life and had an opportunity to minister without even realizing it until after the situation was over.

There’s always such encouragement to find your area of ministry and God provides the opportunities to do it best when we aren’t even looking for it.

The best things God has done in my life were the totally unexpected things, not the things that I’ve thought would be really neat if God did.

He knows best how to glorify Himself. Not us.
