Sit back and enjoy the ride!!

A friend and I are conversing about God’s action and revelations
in our lives, and the amazing blessing for all who open their heart, mind, and soul to Christ Jesus. The Godly friend writes:


I think it’s such a blessing when He allows us to see Him working. We don’t always get to see it…whether He isn’t ready to reveal what He’s doing, or whether we’re so caught up in our own stuff that we are blind to it….it’s awesome when we do get to see. Sit back and enjoy the ride!!

amazing plans for your life.

Open your heart, mind and soul to God, trusting in Him with confessing
and repenting your sins; denouncing selfishness, greed, envy, lust, doubt and all sin in your life. Pray to and listen for God’s voice in your life.

Trust God in 2012: Sit back and enjoy the ride!!
