Waiting :)

I have not blogged in a while; so many things going on have not had time. But I am back now. Today’s blog is going to be about waiting. Waiting on things the God has for you. I am talking about this because I am going through this right now. I am waiting on the Lord to show up in my life.WAITING: The action of staying where one is or delaying action until a particular time or until something else happens. Wow how amazing is this definition of waiting. Staying where you are at until something happens. Let’s think how hard that is? To stay somewhere when nothing is going the way you want it to go. This is where I am at right now in my life. I know where God has me is where I am supposed to be, but nothing around me is going the way I THINK IT SHOULD HAPPEN. The key word here is I; I was trying to do things in my way and on my own time but God was telling me just wait and rest, and that he will take care of everything. How hard is that to put your trust in someone that you can’t see? But you know I believe in God. If that means waiting then Lord I will wait because as you (I) wait the wind of God will begin to blow on your (my) situation and changes will begin to happen because I am not putting the trust in my own self but I am putting my trust in the everlasting God.
 There is freedom in waiting on God, in waiting God will show us how we can be a blessing to someone else in their life. One thing I have learned in this situation is when I give to someone else and help others out somehow God blessing me, maybe not with the things that I need right at the moment but with an understanding about his ways. The bible says in Luke 6:38, Give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together and running over, SHALL MEN GIVE INTO YOUR BOSOM. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again. Even in this we see that God tells us to give of yourself and he will take care of the rest, even in your waiting you give. Knowing that he will never leave you (me) nor forsake me because you want to bless others first.
            Alright guys I think that is enough of me preaching. I pray that whoever reads this blog will be blessed and you will want to give of yourself for someone else. And that you will be able to rest in God knowing that he will take care of everything you are in need of. And in waiting God will show up and show out in your situation, and the wind of God will begin to blow on you and your situations. Have an amazing rest of the night.

Day two:)

So it is like 6:04 in the morning and I randomly woke up errrrrrrrrr :( LOL maybe its for a reason, anyway. So I did not blog on Thursday because I simply just forgot LOl. So I am blogging now :) Thursday was a good day in MAGGIES WORLD :) I woke up like always praise the Lord and I went to go and turn the thousands of applications I had :) hopefully one of them calls me back, but anyway back to God :) Today he has been so amazing to me :) I am staying at my friends parents house for a couple of nights and they are really strong Christians and they let me stay in there prayer room they have in there house, it is sooooooo awesome. So many people wrote on the walls requesting prayer for different things or just blessing this prayer room. Its so strange to see the many request on the walls but on the same hand it is great to see that people are willing to experience to others there needs and situation they go before the Lord with ( not many people do that). We I walked in this room all I felt is the presents of God so strange that Gods presents can be soooo stronge in one place. I began to pray for the family I am staying with and I could actually see God moving in each and everyone of there life's individual, how sweet is that? Well anyway, they have a cross in the corner and it has my favorite scripture on it proverbs 3:5&6, it says trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding but in all your ways acknowledge him and he will direct your path. Everytime I think of that scripture it does something to me,hmmmm wow.. just to know that I can trust in the LORD for all my needs and he will and want to direct my path,how awesome. But I will talk more about that tomorrow or not at 6:30 am lol.  Well love, peace,hope and faith to you all :)
