I simply spoke and listened to someone I didn't know well. He then came by
the house and stuck around. My husband and family were not too happy about it
and to tell the truth it made me uncomfortable. So on the next occasion when he
came near, I drew back. That was a week ago.
Today was very busy and after feeding my grandkids I laid on
my bed to get my swollen and hurting leg up and opened my Bible.
Luke 10:16 (JESUS was talking) anyone who listens to you,
listens to ME and anyone who rejects you is rejecting ME and anyone who rejects
ME is rejecting GOD who sent ME.
As I thought on that verse, I remembered there was a prayer
gathering soon to start and asked GOD if I should go? The pain that had been so
intense had ebbed away so I knew I was to go. Therefore it wasn't long before I
was gathered with others singing praise songs with a video. And the LORD spoke
through the words of a song. It was about HIS love always being there even when
we didn't measure up. Then the next music video had a line about drawing near
and I knew the LORD was convicting me. It was like GOD was saying, why are you
asking ME to draw near when you drew away. For when you do it to the least of
these my brothers, you have done it to me.
I had to confess to GOD and those joined to pray and am so
aware of what those words mean. How I praise the LORD that HIS mercies fail not
and that if I confess, HE will forgive me and cleanse me from all
unrighteousness. I John 1:9
Yet, I am so sad that I made someone feel rejected. I want to
make it right. Will you pray for me? I need wisdom in communicating
acceptance. Isn't it awesome to know that GOD loves to hear and answer prayer
and loves it even more when HIS children unite (become one) as they pray for the
same concern?
Thank you ahead for joining me in prayer for wisdom for
me.
hugs
