seeking the Lord for the right way not our way.......
Ezr 8:21 Then I proclaimed a fast there at the river of Ahava, that we might humble ourselves before our God, to seek from Him the right way for us and our little ones and all our possessions.
the key point that stuck out to me was the need to seek the Lord for the right way not always our way. It's crazy how God gives us a verse when we need it. I had been dealing with some ministry stuff and I was directed to this verse and wow! it's amazing if we seek the Lord for the right way and we don't just seek the Lord for our way. I want the way of the Lord not anything else.
I feel like we get selfish in our prayers we only ask God for our way. I want a relationship with God that is based on the right way not our ways.
in order to seek the right way and not our way. We must humble ourselves, wow! that's tough, I'm feeling like my pride is being broken this past week and it's hard but sweet. It's all to humble ourselves, he will exalt us if we are humble. His ways are so much better then our ways. I want the right way I want the Lord to move.
this was an interesting verse.
sorry I don't have much more time to write, got some deals going on today.

and odd kind of love and joy
1Pe 1:8 whom having not seen you love. Though now you do not see [Him], yet believing, you rejoice with joy inexpressible and full of glory,
This verse caught me off guard in my devotions, it was pretty sweet what the Lord showed me and I can't put it on paper.....We love Christ because we have not sen him. What kind of love is that? in today's society Love is based on looks abs what we see to gratify ourselves. But as a believer we need faith that will love Christ even tho we don't see him! we have to get past the common thinking of the flesh when it comes to love.
That love mentioned here is the love between the savior and us. We know the Savior but do we love the savior? is our faith like that? can we say our faith is in loving a man we have not seen?
Joy! we can have joy believing in what we do not see! that also goes against society's terms. wow! thats radical, we rejoice in the unseen. We believe even tho we do not see him! thats faith, can we rejoice in that?
