Maybe it is just my tendency towards anxiety, but yesterday as I was stepping back into counseling, I was overly concerned that I wouldn’t be equipped for the sessions ahead. The book I mentioned yesterday had a big impact on me and even though I knew in my head that God would use this information I’d learned, somehow what I had in my head had not entered into my spirit. This morning when I asked Jesus what He wanted me to know from Him, He said, “Your assignment is to learn what I inspire within you. Then it is to trust My Gift of The Holy Spirit to deliver this information as a client needs to hear it. This isn’t about you and you “knowing”, it is about you trusting Me to use you at the right times.”
As I moved from my journaling to read my devotional, the message was about God opening our spiritual eyes to something new about Him. As I read this I just stopped and thanked Jesus for His message just a few minutes earlier. My spiritual eyes were opened to a greater awareness of trusting. Deep within me is an old belief that I am not able to know what I need to know or do what I need to do–I’ll screw it up. Well, God is showing me that He never screws up and if I do, it is because I forget about trusting Him and instead, try to rely on me.
Another GREAT LESSON.
