2010

The last couple of days I’ve been going through my blogs from this last year trying to see what exactly was going on in the midst of the chaos that has been 2009.

While reading the Holy Spirit really quickened to me the recurring theme for 2009. Surrender. Just about every blog, every journal entry I’ve written this year involved me laying down ALOT of stuff!

While I’ve said in just about every blog that in the surrender I’ve become aware of this huge space that exists now, I’ve asked myself a few questions: 1. Has He increased as I have decreased? 2. In the laying down of these things, has this created space for His things? 3. Am I ready for those things?

My desire for 2010 is to no longer think in terms of how I would handle things, I want to do what I see Him doing, and think what He is thinking. In Him I live, move and have my being (Acts 17:28).

So while thinking all that yesterday Holy Spirit said this: Found In Him in 2010

Mirriam Websters Dictionary has an interesting definition of the word “found” it’s a transitive verb (HELLO transitive!) 1. To take the first steps in building 2. To set our ground on something solid 3. To establish (as an institution) often with PROVISION of future maintenance.

Ecclesiastes 3:3 says there’s a season for tearing down and a season for building up. Much has been torn down in 2009. 2010 will be the year for building up!

While there is always going to be shifting in our lives as Christians, HE is always going to be the firm foundation that we can cling to. And everything He does is for our good, even if it looks bad, it’s GOOD because He is GOOD!

He keeps us in perfect peace when our minds are fixed on Him!
