Crossing Over
Several weeks ago my friend had a dilemma. As is my life style, I bring my problems and my friends problems to the Lord and ask for His help.
This problem was a need for direction and more. The more would involve a peace about what her husband was wanting her to do, work full time.
Over the weeks we prayed , my exhortation was , to expect that the Lord would answer her somehow , in His word.
When her answer came , she and I rejoiced in how wonderfully her answer had come. Not only did the Holy Spirit lead her to scripture that encouraged her to honor her husbands request but also helped her to know which job , He had for her to apply for. The wrong job the doors closed, and the right job just made itself obvious for the applying.
When her answers came I became encouraged to seek the Lord for answers for myself. So many times , because it is just the right thing to do, I go ahead. Should I ask the Lord to show me where I am in His word with this situation I know that He would be faithful to answer me.
