Just one of the areas that I am struggling with lately.<BR/>Thanks <BR/>KatrinaSKY4KAThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16371896558548383021noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4763428176505947489.post-51275671738882730982008-07-11T12:39:00.000-07:002008-07-11T12:39:00.000-07:00The one thing I kept thinking midway through this,...The one thing I kept thinking midway through this, even as I continued to read was this...<BR/>If we over plan our lives, we don't leave room for God to make plans in our lives. <BR/><BR/>I once attended a church that was very structural. The order of worship was lined out in the bulletin. I mean everything...prayer, listed two songs, offering, special solo, sermon, communion, prayer. You get the point. My beloved said that the worship time was so structured that there was no room for the Holy Spirit to move. My beloved was moved by the Holy Spirit many times and one time it was in service. He told me he just had a word from God and really felt he needed to share it. It went up to the pastor sitting in the front pew, told him, and the pastor did let him say a couple words. One other time, he had a word from God though, the pastor asked to see his "outline" and asked him to make sure he kept it to a couple minutes. That bothered us. We should trust our flock enough to allow them to speak when the Spirit moves them.<BR/><BR/>I say all this long winded stuff, to say our lives could be the same...plans set in stone and not pliable for God to work in them.<BR/>Love,<BR/>PaulaPaula Vhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13948349907036852384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4763428176505947489.post-67691357673022230082008-07-11T08:41:00.000-07:002008-07-11T08:41:00.000-07:00Lynn,Thank you for your obedience in prayer for me...Lynn,<BR/><BR/>Thank you for your obedience in prayer for me today. I'm not quite sure why the Lord layed me on your heart. It could be several things I'm sure. One being for continued healing from some health "issues," another could be that really cool thing called "balance" as you beautifully wrote about in your blog. I find myself saying "It's all about a balance" a lot lately. The Lord is teaching me this also. Thank you for your prayers and your post. You're welcome to stop by my blog anytime. Although, I really need to update it as I realize the last post is a couple months old. This blogging thing is all new to me and I hope it doesn't get overwhelming. That's another request I guess. Thanks again.<BR/><BR/>Blessings,<BR/>NicoleNicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06298677165838555844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4763428176505947489.post-56283344167809219092008-07-11T07:56:00.000-07:002008-07-11T07:56:00.000-07:00Lynn,A great post.

When planning a trip and it doesn't happen I get disappointed. My husband is not a planner (except with his business). Sometimes it drives me crazy. Balance is what I need. I have learned to accept (to some extent) my husband ways. He will not tell you until almost the last minute if we're going somewhere that we've talked about for weeks. One time he waited until the last minute and I refused to go. Did it bother him? no. God needs to work on both of us. How we have lasted almost 46 years God only knows. If I say something is black, he will say it's white. That's just an example. I love him anyway. <BR/><BR/>I'm getting way off base here. <BR/><BR/>You have such wonderful insight. I love reading your posts.<BR/>Thanks for being a friend.<BR/>AliceE.From the Hearthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06612517670775886165noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4763428176505947489.post-86329405320675677602008-07-11T07:08:00.000-07:002008-07-11T07:08:00.000-07:00Just caught this blog also.
