Following God's Lead

Dear Friends,

God bless you, your loved ones and your ministries this week!

Do you ever have trouble discerning God's will in your decision making?

I feel embarrassed because I told everyone about my big plans which I thought God was leading me to do, then I hit a brick wall and realized that my disernment process wasn't working well in making that decision. I was heartbroken, because I was looking forward to my plans. I went to bed and cried.

Two days later, I shared my sorrow with a friend at church and he reminded me that God never shuts a door without opening a window. I met with my pastor and she prayed for me.

Within a day, my heart was healed and new plans were set in place.

It's okay to make mistakes, even when we do it publicly. We can still feel good about ourselves, despite our embarassment.

Love, Sue
