A Day of Gathering.

Well it has been a few days since I blogged. It is really hard for some reason. My wife's birthday is coming up and I am excited for that. Her mom is planning a cookout tomorrow and then the next night we are going to St. Augustine for the evening. Anyway just sharing that.

We had a good day. We visited a gathering of believers. They did some pretty cool things. They did open communion all the time, every Sunday and people were coming down for prayer all through the music and teaching time. One would of thought this to be chaotic but it was anything but.

My wife and I are continuing to pray and seek God's face as to what mission He has for us in His Kingdom. Please pray with us.

I have been thinking about Proverbs 3:5 for a couple of days now. God just won't let it go away. Proverbs 3:5 is a popular verse. It says, "Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. (ESV)"

Though we like to quote it a lot we do not really apply this verse to our lives. What do I mean by that? We easily go to our own thinking. We do it both individually and corporately. We become pragmatic with our lives and with our churches. Often times this is after we have prayed but we don't really trust God to work. We go with what we call common sense, or business sense, or "church" sense or whatever sense.

Why does it seem easier to trust our own thinking, man's thinking instead of trusting God and His power. I am continuing to dwell on this thought and this verse. There will probably be more to come as I wrestle with this verse and seek the Holy Spirit to teach me.

Seeking His supremacy in my life.
