Through the Fire

There is a fire under me and I can't sit still.  Today is a beautiful day - sunny, cool, and blue skies.  I have a burst of joy within and suddenly my world seems to be turning around.  I still have craziness all about me but I no longer walk in fog and I have pulled away my shield of "self-protection".  I surrendered my life stresses to God awhile back and never looked back. "I"have not tried to fix the stresses but in my surrendered position I became uninvolved and lazy...after all God is in control.  

Well, I am not excused from reading and studying God's wonderful word.  It is the Word that leads and directs me to make wise decisions and make responsible choices.  I know this and have known this.  My surrendered state became freeing to the point of comfort to not worry anymore about certain things in my life and in that comfort came laziness. 

My fire today is that I am not just picking up God's word in bits and pieces through studying for my youth class, or through TV, books, preaching, or other venues.  Today I hunger for personal Bible Study.  I want the fire to get me off my tail and onto the roof top!  God is good...He is faithful...and His love is Everlasting.


Today's blog entry exposes a truth about my recent life.  I can be judged by it or I can be the voice of your life that you wouldn't dare to expose.  I would rather inspire you to join me in my walk thru the fire....refinement is the goal...bright and shiny for Jesus.
