"Lord... give me the gift of faith to be renewed and shared with others each day. Teach me to live this moment only, looking neither to the past with regret, nor the future with apprehension. Let love be my aim and my life a prayer." ~Roseann Alexander-Isham

Subtle Way

I just love the way GOD continues to speak into my life when I feel I need Him too, or when He is reminding me that I'm walking exactly where He would have me walking at the moment.

It makes me wonder why we ever even doubt... This morning a friend shared during "Praise & Prayer Time" at church what God had been placing on her heart this week. One thing was why the Israelites took so long to enter the promise land, it was their doubt and unbelief. She encouraged us to believe and trust in God in order to enter!!

Then this week at different moments when I began to doubt, God spoke in those little subtle ways whether through a person like above or in my quiet time reading.

Some examples from "God Calling" March 17-21 are:

...You need to trust Me for everything.

...Just trust Me in everything. ...The difficult way is nearly over, but you have learnt in it lessons you could learn in no other way. ...Such wonderful things are coming to you, Joy-Peace-Assurance-Security-Health-Happiness-Laughter. Claim big, really big, things now. Remember, nothing is too big. Satisfy the longing of My Heart to give. Blessing, abundant blessing, on you both now and always. Peace.

I am here. Fear not. Can you really trust Me? I am a God of Power, as well as a Man of Love, so human, yet so divine. Just trust. I cannnot, and I will not, fail you. All is well. Courage. Many are praying for you both.

Your foolish little activities are valueless in themselves. Seemingly trivial or of seemingly great moment, all deeds are alike if directed by Me. Just cease to function except through Me. ...

...Long though the way may seem, there is not one inch too much. I, your Lord, am not only with you on the journey- I planned, and am planning, the journey. There are Joys unspeakable in the way you go....


And then just my own thoughts about a particular man in Wyoming.... and for the past two weeks classes have been reading stories about Ranches, Horses, Cowboys, and such.... Not to mention the visitors at church today sharing about a Rodeo Camp through Fellowship of Christian Cowboys....

Hmmm, subtle little hints or not?
