We now have made the decision about Birmingham. Haven got a call back about the interview he did and he had the job if he wanted it, but he decided not to take it. We will be staying here in North alabama for a while. So now I just need to figure out what God really does want from me, and us. I've been convicted or shown this week that I need to start spending more time with Him, by reading my bible and just listening period.
We had a revival going on at our church and it encouraged me to do more of both. I also decided that I want to and need to make it a habit to when I wake up, to ask God to walk with me in that day, to invite Him into my presence and to help open my ears to hear anything that He might have to say to me in that day. I want to better be able to recognize His presence with me in each day, for it to be a real tangible relationship where that I notice when He is not there. I need that to be able and capable of whatever He asks of me. Does that make sense?
At one point in time this week I sat listening to the pastor, who was completely on fire and really knowing the truth in what he was saying and I felt very cold and convicted about the fact that I had not even spent enough time in the Word lately for this to stir much of anything in me. I was totally unprepared even if God did want to move me. So now I just want to get prepared and stay prepared. I hate that my relationship with God usually tends to turn out just like any relationship I have with others. It sort of waxes and wanes at different times. I don't want to allow that. I want to keep in touch by whatever means possible. Most of all I just wanna be real about everything, about my relationship with God to others, and about my relationship with others to God.
Thanks for reading and God bless you and be with you in this day,

I'm just a young artist. New to the world of finding venues to share a visual message with the world. I wouldn't be an artist if it wasn't for God's inspiration and I want to do all I can in order to allow Him to have the Glory in my artwork.
About Me
- Worth Love Art
- I'm a 25 year old, mother of two. I have been a homemaker since the birth of my first child. I may seemingly have little to do with the world around me, due to the fact that my impact on the world goes unseen in a lot of ways. I take my job as a mother very seriously though, because it's not one life, mine, thats going to be affecting the world in my eyes, but rather the lives of my children that will make an impact. Therefore I'm doing the best I can, as I learn, to try to teach them how to live meaningful lives. I praise God for everything that I have and especially a newly found ability to paint. If it wasn't for the events good and bad that he's lead me thru and out of in my life I wouldn't be the person I am today. So in everything that I do I pray that He will get glory in it. I'm not perfect so that statement doesn't come with a guarantee, it is just simply a prayer and a hope for my life.
