Comment on Does God get our leftovers? by Megan Lowmaster

Megan Lowmaster — Wed, 08 Feb 2012 06:59:17 +0000

Thank you for your insight Jill. Growing up I always spent time before bed reading my Bible and praying. Some people have told me over the years that that is leaving God to the end of my day or you might call giving him my leftover time of the day. But I have always felt that was my time with God, it shouldn’t matter what time it is it the time I spend that is important. I try to look at it as time well spent with my best friend.

Isn’t this the truth! We can only speak our truth and our story. In doing so people will hear what they are supposed to hear on their time and in God’s plan.

I so agree with this. Everyone has a story. Some are more dramatic than others but we all have one to tell. We just need to pray for holy boldness and share it.

Comment on from Sunday: Margin by CHARLOTTE J. LOOMIS

I WAS NOT QUITE SURE HOW THE WORD MARGIN EXPLAINED THE QUESTION THAT WAS BEING ASKED SO I LOOKED IT UP IN WEBSTER’S 1952 DICTIONARY. SYN: EDGE, BORDER, BRINK, VERGE, BRIM. WHEN I FIND MYSELF ON THE BRINK, BORDER, OR VERGE, OF BEING OVERLOADED I MUST REST IN THE ARMS OF JESUS TO KEEP ME FROM LOOSING BY BOUNDRIES IN LIFE. IT TOOK ME YEARS OF SEARCHING TO FIND HELP THAT SHOWED ME WHAT KIND OF BOUNDRIES ONE NEEDS TO COME TO THE PLACE TO KNOW WHEN TO STEP BACK AND RE-EVALUATE EACH DAY ACCORDING TO GOD’S GUIDE LINES. HOPE YOU FIND EXACTLY WHAT YOU NEED TO WALK THE NARROW WAY WITH HIM. LOVE, CJL :0) <

As a young woman, wife, mother, homemaker, seamstress, school aide and ministry leader I had no sense of margins in my life. After a time my body broke under the pressure. While I healed God taught me the correct use of the word no. I now don’t assume that every opportunity presented to me is from God’s hand. I wait for clear direction before making a decision. Those spaces of time give me the chance to be flexible and available.

Couldn’t agree with you more. If I could choose only one word to describe the church of America I would think and I cant quote Paul but I can glean wisdom from his teaching… The word would have be heathens. Now I am not describing any of the churches I’ve been to so far like Grace or Willamette Community or Lake Bible or Mountain Park or The Pearl or Solid Rock the Jesus Church. don’t we all need to be a Jesus Church. Church doesn’t start at first service or Big adult service or VBS. It starts in each persons heart because each individual of the church is ultimately the LORDS temple. And if we don’t choose to treat our bodies like that, which a majority of so called Christians now adays are satisfied with. I was recently sat down by my current manager at My Roseburg Starbucks and because of my pride, envy and overall innapropriateness, took a leave of absence. But don’t we all need some sense kicked into us some time? I’m concluding with a verse that has meant more to me in the last month than it has ever meant to me in my life… Psalm 139. Interpret it as you like because there is more truth knit in it than what meets the eye of the beholder because He is the ultimate IAM. Selah
