I love how you said that ...Sarah, I just love this! I love how you said that you've learned that "when I can only trust God to point me in a direction...I am more sure than I have ever been." I needed to read this post today. I just spent about an hour on my computer this morning typing something out that I would love to just post on my blog...but I felt God convicting me to just write it down...and let it be (for now). The right time will come to share. His time. Just like you, I'm learning to allow Justin and God to be my main sources for sharing. It is amazing to see what God can do with those constraints that we place out of conviction. Love your heart and your constant ability to put just the right message into words. Blessings on your Tuesday sweet girl!caithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13178161653629713972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7457232577056664392.post-43183167496865811512011-02-15T11:54:18.924-05:002011-02-15T11:54:18.924-05:00Often, when I share something, it's only so th...Often, when I share something, it's only so that people will affirm that I'm great/in the right/taking the right actions, etc. Hearing any opposition simply makes me annoyed! Obviously, this can't be right. I've been challenged by my pride lately, and the result has been a similiar exercise in restraint.SydneysHomehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06528001098638552809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7457232577056664392.post-56980165524075965832011-02-15T10:31:18.908-05:002011-02-15T10:31:18.908-05:00I've been learning to keep my mouth shut too. ...I've been learning to keep my mouth shut too. I think I'm a lot like you in that I feel the need to run my thoughts by everyone to make sure everyone affirms whatever I am thinking/feeling. But it is freeing to not have to have that kind of approval from people and to trust God with things and not worry about people. And I also agree that sometimes it is more entertaining to just sit back and watch and listen others!Annehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14490913069176634589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7457232577056664392.post-82260989977009082372011-02-15T09:43:51.352-05:002011-02-15T09:43:51.352-05:00i've too been learning that keeping my mouth s...i've too been learning that keeping my mouth shut is sometimes better...it's hard for me as well because i don't hide much of anything...it's just who i am and if i need to vent, so be it! but then i delete and move on! i feel refreshed once i've written something but then feel like a complete ass! i hope you are okay and if you ever need to email. i'm just an ear away! xoxoBlogshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11857786970121083670noreply@blogger.com
