"When we are at our wits' end for an answer, then the Holy Spirit can give is an answer. But how can He give us an answer when we are still well supplied with all sorts of answers of our own?"
- Karl Barth
That's a quote from the latest book I have read it was, Francis Chan - Forgotten God. I remember getting this book one afternoon with Nic & Krystian and being so excited to read it but as things of this world got in the way it got pushed to several days later. I am one of those people who believes that God is in every moment of every second in my day and I remember having a rather difficult day the day I picked up the book and I love to read and after an hour or two I was already flipping to page 103 and I read that quote and just stopped, I knew God and meant for me to read that quote that day.
So since I have read that quote that has been my prayer. That I will allow God to supply my answers and I won't rely on myself and when I run out of patience (which I know I will) I will remember that God never promised to reveal plans to me all at once or in advance and that I need to stop fretting over figuring out God's will, I just need to pray. I pray that God will help me walk away from the enslaving worthless things in life. My God is an awesome and amazing God capable of ALL things big or small.
