I was troubled this morning when I awoke. Many things were on my mind, and so I did what I do: I started journaling. Most of my journal entries include things about the day or days before: things I wish I had not said...things that annoyed me...things I found delightful. When I have (excuse the graphic language) thrown up on the paper, I often write specifically to God. Today I wrote: "So Jesus, what do You want to tell me today?"
I opened the Bible to the place I was reading in the Gospel of John, and in 3 verses, God answered my question very clearly. I laughed out loud; what joy I felt to know that He knows me and wants to communicate with me this way!
You may think that's coincidence; you may not believe anything the Bible says; you might think I'm nuts. That's okay. I know He loves me and keeps wanting me to understand my life and what it means.
