I drove 600 miles the past two days to take a friend to Duke to see if they can help her with the pain in her feet. Literally the bottom of her feet feel like she is walking on glass almost constantly. She flew in, we drove from Spartanburg to Durham, spent the night and went to her appointment at 10:30 then met a friend, Diane. Diane is a lady whose deep spirituality is off the charts in comparison with most of the world. We met at around 11:30 and talked for over 3 hours about many many things. In the course of our travels we got to discipline or pain or crap. What ever you want to call what you face every time you think you are making any progress. We came to agreement that we are privileged to be living in the times we are and that we need to yield to the press which is the only way oil can be obtained from the broken mess of our live. The oil is the salve if you will that those placed in our paths can only receive by God working HIS will in our lives. His allowance of anything and we agreed that He has to allow whatever is happening because if not them He is not the God of the Universe Almighty No One Bigger The GUY IN CHARGE! If we are serving any less then we need to go sit on the hillside and inspect our belly buttons for the lint of life. We know Whom we serve, but are we willing to let Him show His Love through us or do we think we can do a better job of anything than He? NOT. So the press we are in is His plan to bring out the very best the flowing out through us of HIM. Do we have a better plan NOT! So we prayed together "Lord use us , dont listen to our whining our moaning our pitiful plan for anything, Press us Harder Lord, the time is short to reach those who know You not, keep us not out of Your way but directly in the path of the most possible use by You. So we are called... Jude said 17-19But remember, dear friends, that the apostles of our Master, Jesus Christ, told us this would happen: "In the last days there will be people who don't take these things seriously anymore." Dont be those people, be God's tools ready to be used.
