"For now we see in a mirror dimply, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known." (I Corinthians 13:12)
I think of all that is going on in the world today and how sometimes I get on my soapbox only to regret it later.
In talks with My Lord and Savior I'm beginning to understand (I think) it is not my opinions I need to make known, but His Truths.
I am His child as are many of you. But, like it says in I Corinthians 13:12, now I only see /know part of the picture, part of the plan - God's plan. When we have been raised to glory with Him then we will see all. But until then I must share the Gospel, The Word of the Lord - Jesus.
The word of Cathy is of no account by itself, but with the Lord I can be an instrument of His love and mercy and hope.
He will guide me if I listen and obey. Obedience is not something to be taken lightly. We are not to find reasons to not do His will. If we look for objections (like Moses did when God called him - read Exodus 4), then it definitely is not to God's glory, but our own.
And I don't want to be or go there. Do you?
It's the journey ... not the destination. ... The journey ... my eyes were opened and I knew Him and my heart was changed. ... Won't you join me in my travels, meandering here and there, journeying within my mind and beyond, on paths great and small, through this world that was created by and belongs to the Lord God Almighty.

My soapbox or His?

I guess that's why James tells us to be "slow to speak" altho I can see why a Christian has to speak out on the issues today.
