Choices


I love how God just loves to slide a piece of vital information that could be life-changing, if I allow it to, into a what felt like it was going to be just another regular day. When will I realise that God doesn't want me to allow a day to pass by in ordinary fashion? time is precious. I've been feeling empty lately..lonely, fed up..sick of me being on facebook for a large amount of my day because I don't know what to do with my day. God's blessed me with all this free time, I should be appreciating every moment of it. Once I was sick with this sick and tired feeling, I turned to my faithful friend and BAM! God's gentle and loving voice spoke softly to my heart. It shouldn't be my emotions that are leading me but I should be asking the Holy Spirit what CHOICE I should be making about the way I'm feeling. Emotions aren't reliable, God is. It's only me who decides how to act and if I'm feeling empty I should be making the decision to come to Jesus to fill me and change my heart, not choosing to spend the rest of my day feeling miserable.

Romans 15:13 - May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

So I urge you today, ask the Holy Spirit to guide you in making decisions on how your emotions will effect your day because like I said time is precious.
