Day 77: For My Corners

Hearing God speak has never been my strong point. Whether it's because of my failure to listen, or because He doesn't quite have anything to say just yet, I sometimes feel lost without his voice.
 
Enter my fellowship, and friends. Praise God. 
 
Through them, I know that God speaks to me, even when I feel alone, or far from what He has to tell me.

Today is one of those days that I'm thankful for the people I have speaking into my life. They really are a gift from the Lord. I haven't had anything on my heart to write about, perhaps because yesterday's blog took a lot our of me, but I do know that God is bringing to light some solid friendships that have been getting me through so many things.

In the past week, I've been engaged in discussion with two of my closest friends (and corners) about everything from waiting to be pursued to recognizing what it means to be godly and feminine. In these conversations, I see women who are so bold and strong in their faith, but who are also vulnerable, even to the point of being swayed by the norms and expectations of this world.

Without this fellowship, I know that my heart would falter, if only because I know that so much of God's presence in my life is through those He has put in it.

Lately my heart has been at war with my mind, and I'm so grateful for these women who step in and help to calm it. I know that what He has for me is good, but I really needed to be reminded that I'm not the only one who is still waiting to see what it is.

Thank you, ladies; I love you from the bottom of my heart.



In Christ,



Lilia
