That is what we need, to saturate ourselves in the Word of God and trust Him with the end outcome knowing He never makes any mistakes.I am encouraged hearing from young ladies like you who love the Lord so ferverently. May we all learn from your example...June Fuentes @ A Wise Woman Builds Her Homehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01821276536385551195noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1984956841131982891.post-71582259891370109242006-12-04T22:42:00.000-06:002006-12-04T22:42:00.000-06:00How true!

Just today, I was encouraged to look to my family for those areas of my life that need refining and molded to exemplify Christ more(and those areas are many!) Our families are most certainly the most perfect "refining ground and tools" that the Lord has given. Of course, even now, while in the midst of God's refining fire, I so often selfishly anguish over the flames and heat and fail to rest in the knowledge of God's work at hand, but am so thankful that His grace covers my selfishness as He lovingly reveals Himself yet again. <br />~Nicole~Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1984956841131982891.post-85453533457579132722006-12-04T15:58:00.000-06:002006-12-04T15:58:00.000-06:00Yes, you definitely hit the nail on the head! Late...Yes, you definitely hit the nail on the head! Lately, the Lord has been teaching me the same thing. Sometimes I'm ashamed at how hard it is for me to just trust Him. I always desire to know exactly why He does what He does, I struggle and struggle...then verses from Isaiah 55 come to mind. “Seek ye the Lord while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near…For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord." We must remember that His thoughts and ways are much higher than ours. We most definitely serve a wonderful Lord and Savior!! <br /> It also makes me think of the verse in chapter 26. “Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusteth in thee.” Oh, how beautiful and comforting it is to have HIS perfect peace. The peace that our beloved heavenly Father gives is beyond all we could ever ask or think! <br /> It’s been a blessing reading your posts! <br /> <br /> ~ KarisseAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
