only God can move mountains

If I want to see what God has done in my life, often I'll just have to read blog posts from years past.

It's good to read through the archives.

On May 4th, 2011, I wrote of struggles & wonders, and asking God to move in my life. I want to share it with you... and show how only God can move mountains.

when I tell mountains to move

God is always working. Often I know it's happening in my life, but I don't see it. So I'm thankful for a friend who will write to me and tell me what she see's God doing in my life, so thankful. I don't want to miss what He's saying.

Many days lately have ended with the following heart cry "Lord, what can I do, what should I do? I really don't know what to do here." The things I question and wonder about turn into worries, I search for a place to make a change and come up empty.

But it's not until I quiet my soul and my worries that I hear "I know... you're right, you can't do anything here. But I can, and I will, and I will get the glory. Not in your ways, but Mine and not in your timing either. I know when you'll be ready."

 

So I keep hoping, praying, and eagerly waiting for Him to move.
"Just keep looking to Me"

 

So I seek contentment, but a godly discontentment lies deep within to keep me from becoming complacent. A godly discontentment to push me deeper into Him.

 

Lord, you know what I'm trying to do, take over, guide me and move mountains.

 

 

2 short months after posting this... God had already started to work mightily in my life. Dreams were growing, my heart was changing. I didn't know it at the time, but God was softening my heart and preparing it for what was to come.

 

2 short months after posting this... I met my now husband. In the past year my dreams have grown, changed, and deepened. My trust in God has strengthened. God has moved mountains, He has brought incredible things into my life.

 

Sometimes it just takes a few minutes of looking back at where we were to see where we are now. I can't do anything but praise the One who has promised to finish the work He has begun.

 

"He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ"

Philippians 1:6

 

I will bless the Lord at all times;
His praise shall continually be in my mouth.
My soul shall make its boast in the Lord;
The humble shall hear of it and be glad.
Oh, magnify the Lord with me,And let us exalt His name together.

Psalm 34:1-3
