Before you say Yes

Posted by: Patricia on: September 25, 2008

Yesterday Susan Harris gave our Bible study class an article to read.  It is something I have been dealing with since the summer.  I think most woman in our self-created over busy lives deal with…Saying Yes.  We say Yes to everything without REAL consideration.  Soccer, dance, cooking a meal, karate, play dates, bible study, volunteering, church, [...]

You know exactly what I am talking about.  One day you will be in Heaven (hopefully) and you might be asked a plethora of questions (by the way Catholics picture St. Peter in this scenario).  If you already have practiced your answer….that’s not a good sign.  Let me give you an example:

However, I consider my life worth nothing to me, if only I may finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me—the task of testifying to the gospel of God’s grace.

God is just so Good!  Yesterday was a tough day for me.  It was a good day, but I wrestled with some things because of “self” issues.  Well, God woke me up very early this morning and had a word to me about that.  In the midst of it, all I realized that I have [...]
