Choices

Choices. We make them everyday. What should I wear? Should I shower? What to have for breakfast....we are always making choices.
There are some things that people don't realize are choices. One of these choices is choosing to listen for God's voice and direction. So many people don't realize that this is a choice. It's a choice to get up everyday and get into the word and spend time with God. It's a choice to actually listen to what He is telling you. It's another choice to respond and obey what he is telling you.

Many people base this on feeling. It's easy to say that "I feel like God has stopped talking to me" or "I don't feel like listening to Him anymore." If everything in our lives were based on feelings then we'd all be basket cases. These choices are important. We need to make that choice to keep listening to Him. We may not always like what He has to say but He is there speaking to us.

The next choice to make is how we respond to Him. Are we going to obey and do as He wishes? or are we going to ignore Him and continue on in our own way?

What are you going to choose?

Hidden Treasures

Have I said just how much I love garage saling? Well, I love garage saling! Today is our neighborhood's community garage sale. I went out looking just to look and with no intentions of actually buying anything. At the second house I stopped at I found a couple of things worth buying. These are the only things I found today. I bought 2 booster seats that are exactly like the one we have. They were $2.00 a piece and I definitely could not pass that up. Brand new they are worth over $30 dollars each. It's always good to have something like that on hand for company or travelling. Can you tell I'm a mom? I'm excited over finding quality booster seats at a cheap price! Yay for garage saling!
