God woke me with the song "Goodness of God" going through my mind. He is so, so good! His love poured down upon me each and every day is a precious gift. That gift is one I so enjoy sharing with others. It is a gift that keeps on giving. This week is hectic with added things on the calendar but I must remember God is in the midst of each and every one of them. He is in the center of all aspects of life when we allow Him. He is the One to direct us, give us wisdom and clarity, opens and closes doors, etc. Yesterday was a day filled with praying for others. I received several calls throughout the day where prayers were the outcome. I am so thankful for the way God uses me as His willing servant. I am thankful for the way the Holy Spirit gives me words to say over people. I see His goodness showered upon me every day.
I love Your voice
You have led me through the fire
And in darkest night You are close like no other
I've known You as a Father
I've known You as a Friend
And I have lived in the goodness of God, yeah
And all my life You have been faithful, ohh
And all my life You have been so, so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh, I will sing of the goodness of God...
The 'secret' to a fulfilled life is found in living in God's presence. When we live in His presence, we will not only hear His voice but have the desire to walk in obedience to Him. The trying experiences I have in life are numerous. The one thing that ia constant throughout each and every experience is God. When the waves come crashing over me, He is there as my Life Guard. When the earthquakes of life shatter my little world, He is there to pick up the pieces. When the winds blow me all over the place, He is there as my Foundation to keep me upright. He blesses me in abundance each and every day. I am one blessed lady!
