Superwoman

Was talking to a friend a few days ago. We were talking about our dissatifaction with the nation's current political state and he made the comment that he just wished that he could be Superman and fix all the problems of the world. I nervously laughed it off (and Im sure was like...uhhh...ok...weirdo...) But then it hit me....HOLy STInK...I don't just wanna be Superwoman I flippin am there...unitard and all.

Is this a theme in my life or what...Superwoman...here she is people (rather arrogant little b**** if you ask me):

Family strife - I'll fix it
Work issues - I'll fix it
Friend's relationship issues - I'll fix it
My relationship issues - I'll fix it
Church issues - I'll fix it...(oh and give you my opinion too)
Mending broken hearts - I'll fix it
Healing my broken heart - I'll fix it (then after unsuccessfully doing so...ignore it)
My student's behavior - I'll fix it
My student's family issues - I'll fix it


Amazing how much easier life is when we can just hand over this need to fix everything...it's a huge weight that we don't have to carry. Our heavenly father does...and He is just so much cooler than Superwoman could ever be!!

"Entanglements. Distractions will come and especially as My focus with you intensifies.
Have you noticed how many times when you are on the verge or cusp of a breakthrough or at the beginning of something important I have assigned, a distraction suddenly occurs?
If you choose to cooperate withthese distractions, entanglements result to interrupt or even thwart My direction for you.
Right now you are in the middle of such a distraction.
You have believed a lie that everything depends upon you.
You must take charge and you must get totally involved or else things will unravel andfall apart. I say unto you, examine your priorities.
Recall My directions.
Study the prophetic words you have received.
Get back on track.
Re-focus.
Entanglements."

Confident hope...

What a wonderful thing to be a daughter of a mighty King!! To know He cares for me and will do whatever it takes to draw me close. What freedom from fear we have knowing our mighty King holds us so close.

Morning sunshine...

I have the the following verse taped to my mirror in my bathroom. On a weekly basis, I read the verse over and over again...nothing new. But this morning, after some qt with God, this verse almost literally jumped out and hit me like it never had before. Going through some serious seeking at the moment and this just brought a peace like no other. Good stuff...ya know...kinda like those sunday mornings when you can barely muster up enough energy to drive like 45 min. to church only to be hit in the face with the most appropriate sermon ever. anyone...? just me...moving on.

Seriously, God is so amazing. He knows exactly what I need...


"For this is God, our God forever and ever; He will be our guide even to death." Psalm 48:14

I don't have to know how God is going to do something. I have to know only the one step that God is asking me to take.

Doesn't get any better!
