I think I've said before, somewhere on this blog, that I don't believe in coincidence. When things seem to happen and they are all inner linked, I don't chalk it up to coincidence anymore, God gets the credit. I mean really, as a believer in Christ can I really think that something can continue to be shown to me over and over and over again and I just assume it is by accident? God is not a God of accidents. Nothing surprises Him.
I say that to tell you that lately, God has brought the same thing to my attention several times, from several different sources. These people are not related in any manner, other than being people that know me, and yet they seem to be speaking the same material into my life. I have yet to figure out what God is trying to tell me. I know it must be important since He's used 3 different people and as many different interactions to get this stuff in front of me.
Somewhere, I am missing what He is trying to tell me. I guess I'll just watch, re-read and pray about it until it comes into focus. I praise Him for being so patient as my inept mind tries to grasp what He is obviously yelling in my direction. I could take a few guesses, but that would be all that they are, guesses. The one thing I have figured out about my Creator is that when He wants me to see something, He makes it abundantly clear. I always walk away from the encounter knowing what He has said and what I am suppose to do. Sometimes, I'm suppose to pray and wait. Other times, I am only suppose to take one tiny step before I await His direction once more. No matter what the message, He always promises to make His ways known. He always allows me to see His purpose, and I am ALWAYS baffled that He chose me.
At any rate, here is what He has been putting in front of me lately. The first time I saw it, was on my best friend Amanda's blog. Then, my friend Emily suggested that we watch the video series in our 10th grade Sunday School class. If that wasn't enough, just this morning, I received and email from another friend with this exact material (condensed, of course). Take a look at it and tell me what God is saying to you through this very interesting video. It takes about a minute for Louie to get started, but bear with him. Also, I'd recommend checking out the entire 2 part series from your library. Trust me, it's worth it.
