Matthew 28:19-20
"Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son and the Holy Spirit. Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age."

Seeking the face of God
I don't think we often realize how important it is to seek the face of God. I don't think we realize that we really miss out when we don't seek the face of God. You see, the world has such a corrupt mindset. It can twist the truth so bad where we even feel its the truth. God's truth is beyond feeling..its reality. Its solid truth. The world's truth wavers and eventually becomes a lie. God's truth stands firm. It never wavers, changes, nor comes short..it comes all the way truth. Its something we can rely on and it won't fail us. God never fails us, even when we fail Him. I really realized how much I get caught up in what I think is truth. How the world can corrupt my mind. So often, out here, I think, "ahh! what am I doing! I don't have a position!" Well, maybe my position is to just pour into the sheep God has put around me to feed. I always get corrupted my the world thinking, "I need to make this kind of money." or "I need to have this job, or this position!". The thing is..the way I grew up isn't the way I want to live. I thought having alot of money, having a big house, a family at 24 is successful! No! Whatever God's will is for my life is "successful" and "successful" to him is being faithful! Success in the world's eyes is abundance of worldly crap...where success in God's eyes is seeking after His face, storing our treasures up in heaven, such as working for him, doing his will, bringing others towards him. Our true position is in the Kingdom of God, not this world. I have many desires of this life. I want to be a wife, who loves her husband, supports him in everything he does, submits, raise her children in Christ, opens our house to everyone, and know that the love of God is there and they can experience that. I want to be the Proverbs 31 woman so badly and I just realized tonight, that though I wanted that, I was doing it my way and not God's. I want to be so lost in God that nothing else matters, not even my circumstance. I know God will bring me the desires of my heart because my life is dedicated to ministry. And yes, I have been sucking at that so bad but God is a God of second chances. He has placed his desires in me and I know my calling its just a matter of timing! God created me to be a one of a kind woman of Him, just like he created you to be a one of a kind woman of Him or a man of Him! God has a plan for our life! Lets not do it our way..it just leads to more anxiety and unstability..but lets just surrender and do it His way. Silence yourself before the Lord, Humble yourself and pray! 2 Chronicles 7:14 "Then if my people who are called by my name will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sins and restore their land." He will restore your life! :)
