I realize I am about three weeks behind everyone when it comes to sharing my New Year Resolution, or that little truth that God has shown me which I cling tightly to until the end of 2012. I almost feel that I should apologize, but honestly I can't. I am really not one for New Year's Resolutions nor am I one who says God speaks to me at certain times of the year or that his truths from yesterday are any less important than the truths of today. None the Less I am pleased to share that I am working on a study for 40 days on the book, Wild Goose Chase, by Mark Batterson.......
I am on the third chapter and am in awe. I love the books where Men and Women of God ever so eliquently illuminate God's truths!
In the first Chapter Mark talks about the Scripture in Luke 9:59- "And he said to another follow Me, " but he said Lord, Permit me first to go and bury my father. 60 but he said to him, "Allow the dead to bury their own dead; but as for you, go and proclaim everywhere the kingdom of God". I cried when I read this as God had previously brought it to my attention in June of 2011. I was so moved by the urgency of Christ's words here. Our world is one that is struggling. In many places we do not have days to make life changing decisions, or weeks to carry out the best laid plans, instead we may have hours or even minutes.
I have prayed over this passage and have felt it is a call to arm ourselves and to answer the call to fulfill that which God has laid on your heart, or to work with the tools that God has equipped you as unto his kingdom.
Join with me in search of the Holy Spirits leading for the next 40 days. Share if you will what truths you are finding..... or different places you are seeing him at work.
