Yes, Search ME!!
Are you scared of God? Are you scared of what He might find? He is so loving - let Him in and what Him do a work in YOU! Search me Lord - Lord, change me!! Be near!
I'm with you. I would have admitted that He knows there's wicked ways within me and ask Him to lead me. Love that. I have prayed this several times but when it comes to showing me I have to say "stop already". haa haa...I just can't take too much. I do my best to live right every day, but really, the Lord is the only one I have to answer to, and most of the time I think I don't have to answer to anyone. Trusting Him in this season of life and it has been a serious roller coaster ride for me...I'm blessed, I'm frustrated, but I'm pursuing harder than ever before. :)
When God was punishing David for taking a census in Israel, and gave David his choice of punishments, David chose the plague because he would "rather fall into the hands of God than into the hands of men." He knew that God would have mercy on him and that men would not.
Being examined by God is difficult..but he looks at us with kindness and mercy...It's easy to expect that his eyes are critical like ours and those of people around us...and then to shy away. But how much better to trust in HIS judgment and loving perception of us than those of man! A bunch of thought came to me as I heard your devotional. Thanks...
Leigh, Knowing that god is in me and will lead me in his way is such a satisfaction in itself. It is like the supernatural is watching me and guiding me always through the rough and tough times of my life. Leigh, your words in the video were truly inspiring. Let's hope that god is the best friend that we all have and in whom we are never going to loose our faith. Lovely and powerful video Leigh. Thanks for sharing. Following your blog.
