Eyes wide open!

You know how they say that if you miss out on your personal time with God you'll miss what He wants to speak to you. I realized something this morning - when God wants you to know something, He'll find a way to do it.

I missed last night's reading of a book I've been reading every day but I did read a collegemate's blog and this morning when I read that book, it was the exact same thing my collegemate had written about. God needed to get the message through to me - even though I didn't stick to the plan.

I'm not saying that we should forget quiet times, devotions, personal bible studies etc. But I am saying, God is still God and nothing goes unnoticed in His books. When He makes a plan, it will happen. God speaks to us in ways we least expect - are we looking out for Him? Are we looking for Him in every thing we do?

In the book of Job -

If only I knew where to find God,
I would go to his court.

But once he has made his decision, who can change his mind?
Whatever he wants to do, he does.
So he will do to me whatever he has planned.
He controls my destiny.

I believe God is waiting to speak to us in every situation, in everything we see and experience, every single second of every day - He's waiting there excitedly - wanting so desperately to tell us secrets of life, love, and of His plans. He is in love with us. Remember He created us to enjoy us.

Much like having a bfriend. I would want to share every single thing that's happened to me because I care and I want him to be a part of every aspect of my life. That's how my God is. He wants so much to talk to me! Waiting at every turn, every blink.

Am I looking out for Him too?

Thoughts.

I saw a girl today. She wore a yellow tank top and a cargo pants. They were hanging on her not really fitting right. As I watcher her walk past me, I thought "anorexic?" but then realized I'm not any bigger than she is.

So, I realized. I can wear the most perfect clothes or the most unperfect clothes. It's not the clothes but the person. Whether or not I wear an assemble that is plain hideous or picture perfect isn't really the issue.

As she walked, I could hear the soles of her shoes scraping the floor she walked on. There was no bounce in her and there were no strides.

I suppose I can put on the most ugly clothes but if I can radiate in it, walk with a bounce and a smile on my face, I'd float.. there are no ugly clothes.
