Today I had a really great quiet time. It was interesting because I was supposed to be busy with doing things with other people, but each of them cancelled and so I was left with time alone.
Then I was going to wash laundry because the weather is sunny and breezy - it would dry in a snap! But I decided there wasn't quite a load. So instead I made some tea, used the new sinus rinse I got yesterday (my sinuses are so packed I can't even get the rinse to reach my sinuses yet) and sat down for some time of study and prayer.
During my time of listening prayer God told me a lot of really cool things. Here is part:
My love for you is like a vast ocean.
The waves of my love can envelop you and overwhelm you.
They can wrap you up in me, in my love
You can feel my love toss you around, like undertow, in ways more powerful than you ever imagined
Because that is the power of my love
God also told me that I should have confidence in the fact that I do know and recognize His voice. I shouldn't doubt when I hear from Him. He gave me two verses to confirm this.
"The watchman opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice." John 10:3-4
Then to confirm He gave me this:
"I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me" John 10:14
I am glad my other plans fell through because it was such a great time with God today.
PS: I made a mistake in my last post. My nephew was born 12 weeks early, not 9 like I originally wrote.
