The Soul Of My Feet

There has been a lot going on lately in life, loads of ministry, work, study and family stuff but I can finally breath again and I have been slowing down to hear God in all of it. One of the things he is speaking to me about at the moment is how I define myself. For many years I have run a small business and whilst I have loved every minute of it and the way God has used it for his glory I think it has slowly defined me and I think ever so slowly I have begun to place my trust in it. I have been at a CrossRoads lately and have two directions I could travel but I’m pretty sure I know which path God wants me to take. But more importantly he wants me to take a path where I am defined, not by what I do but who I am in the middle of what I am doing. And above all, I am His, forever, defined not by my status, but His.

Amen

One of my ears has been blocked for some time now and I keep thinking it will eventually unblock but I’m going to have to think about seeing a doctor soon because it’s making me feel a little dizzy. Anyhow I was playing piano today in Church and I was convinced that hardly anyone was singing and I kept turning myself up to make sure they could hear the music. But then mid-way into the song my ear unblocked and whoa everything was louder, clearer and I could hear again. Life wasn’t muffled anymore, it was so nice and lasted, well, for at least minute and then became blocked again…but it got me thinking. Perhaps our ears unblock sometimes and during those moments we hear God speak, then, a few moments later Gods voice becomes muffled, lost in the surrounding noise of life…I’ll let you know when my ears are all good again!
