Good Morning!
A gentle thought to ponder
Char-lee gives all the outwards appearance of being a really happy cuddly lap-focussed kind of little dog. She is! But she has also ‘terrier’ passions often fuelled by strong F.O.M.A, (fear of ‘missing out’.) This is why she watches us closely to make sure we are not doing or going somewhere that she should be a part of.
However, it is sometimes in the evening when storms are in the distance (she is terrified of storms) when protecting her from her passionate desires to ‘take on anything’ and her fear of not missing out need to be strongly maintained. She wants to get out and chase it ALL AWAY!!
So, it is for us in the spiritual realm. Our Father in Heaven knows that sometimes we, as his children can be motivated by the not wanting to miss out quest for information, or desire to take on the problems in the world.
However, if we maintain close connection in prayer and ask for His Guidance we should realize that His:
NO!
Means NO!
HE alone knows the storms approaching and knows absolutely what decisions and path we should be following.
Take full advantage of our relationship won for us by Jesus Christ and come boldly to Him. Pray, Love, Ask, Seek.
Then accept. He alone knows His Purposes for our Life to be lived for Him in FULLNESS.
Have a beautiful new day and new week.!
Blessings!

About Faye
I m a wife, mother and grandmother. I have always enjoyed writing even from an early age. My book Beyond the Ashes has been written as a labour of love. All the characters are real to me and their story needed to be told. As a Christian my desire is to write General Fiction stories about real people but Hope and a desire for 'better' will always be part of the journey. I have had several short stories published over the years and moderate success in writing competitions.
I realized as I was thinking today (30/01/15) that perhaps I should add here that I have had life experiences of many valley times but also many mountain top experiences. I can understand and be beside anyone who finds their life in tatters because I have 'been' there. Of course as I have got older as well there have been the added sorrows of losing not only older family members but also one by one finding the dearest of friends and the ones of greatest support and care also dying. On the site of rich mountains has been my certainty of the value of marriage and how grateful I am that after loss and sadness I made a happy and long-lasting marriage commitment. The one who was my best friend back then is still my best friend 45 years later. Beyond the Ashes touches upon the POWER of LOVE when folk can forget about their own personal 'feelings' and reach out in LOVE to a desperate and broken person.
