Walking with no one around

This blog is about me, my life and my walk with God. I will have some pages with my thoughts, loves, my sadness, my joys and my opinions but I do this to show how God has and will work in my life and to glorify him. I have had some extremely bad times in my life, but I have also had wonderful times in my life, I have made decisions, some good some bad. But I learned from each and every situation (and keep learning). While I might not have learned my lesson in each situation, I have discovered that I have the chance to learn from each experience. Things keep replaying them selves in my life and I think it's God's way of saying "you haven't gotten it right yet, let's try again. Ask me for guidance and wisdom and you will make the right decision".

... squirrel... HEEHEE... back on topic...



Have you ever stopped to think that even when you're by yourself you're not alone. Which is kind of scary but also very nice. Big Brother isn't watching yet! BUT our Father God is...

While you sit at your house doing what ever it is you do when you're there.. God is there. Watching!!!! Scary because what if you're doing something you shouldn't be, talking to someone you shouldn't be talking to, looking at something you shouldn't be or reading something that shouldn't be read.

WOW, as I sit here I'm thinking I should be reading more of my bible and less of my Facebook posts. You know when your younger you think about making your parents proud, now that I am older I think "is God proud of what I have accomplished, is he happy about the decisions I made". Since I didn't pray about a lot of my decisions is he truly proud of them or is he just giving me little blessings. Little blessings that could have been huge if I would have just turned to him when I was alone and ask him for guidance.

But isn't it great that you can sit alone and know that God is always there. Know that if you need someone to talk to that he is there and know that if you need to read something he is there in his word. Isn't it great that he gives us the chance to turn to him no matter what time the clock says, no matter where we are, who we are with, or what we are doing we can just chat with God. Shouldn't we all treat him like he is our best friend. I admit I talk to my best friend a lot more than I talk to God.

I always wonder, if he knows everything why do I need to tell him anything? Tell him my pain, my sorrows, my wishes, hopes, dreams, my happiness, my love, my joy, all that I am. Why do I need to tell him. He asks us to talk to him, he wants that closeness with us, each one of us. Even Jesus prayed to his father so why is it so hard for us to take the time, it only takes five minutes, to talk to God? He is our father.

I walked to my car this morning to take my daughter to the bus stop and thought about texting my best friend. How wonderful is it that we don't even have to pick up our phone to talk to God. No long distant charges, no call waiting and no busy signal. We can just talk to him like we are talking to a friend. I have, though, picked up my phone and acted like I was on it when I was talking to God so people wouldn't think I was nuts. :)

WOW... now that I see this written out I think my connection with God has gotten few and far between. I'll be checking out my Godbook status instead of my Facebook status.
