Let God's Word Speak Over My Own

James 1:5-8

If anyone of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously without reproach, and it will be given to them. But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind for that person must not suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord; he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.

I’ve been asking for wisdom from God. And wow, God answers prayers! These past few weeks have been amazing! Yet at the same time, I have a hard time reiterating his messages for my blog. I’m honestly at a loss of words to say. I have no idea what to write. In fact, I can’t write at all anymore.

But then I read Jeremiah 1:

Now the word of the Lord came to me saying,

“Before I formed you in the womb I knew you,

 and before you were born I consecrated you,

 I appointed you a prophet to the nations.”

Then I said, “Ah Lord God! Behold, I don’t not know how to speak, for I am only a youth.” But the Lord God said to me,

            “Do not say, ‘I am only youth’;

            for to all to whom I send you, you shall go,

            and whatever I command you, you shall speak.

            Do not be afraid of them,

            for I am with you to deliver you,

                                    declares the Lord.”

No matter how inadequate I think I am, God will deliver me. I will glorify him in ways that I cannot comprehend.

Habakkuk 1:5

            Look among the nations, and see;

                        wonder and be astounded.

            For I am doing a work in your days

                        that you would not believe if told.

                                                           

Maybe right now God is telling me, “Taylor it’s time for you to learn, not teach”, and that’s why I have a hard time writing posts. Therefore it is best that I let God’s word speak instead of my own.
