To All Those interested...I AM moving my blog. Please check out www.wingfiea.com. I have the newest blogs there. I will keep this site running simultaneously for now, but will eventually phase out updating this site and focus primarily on wingfiea.com. ~Amy 
Unless the Lord had given me help, I would soon have dwelt in the Silence of death. When I said, ‘My foot is slipping,’ Your Love, O Lord, supported me. When anxiety was great within me, Your consolation brought joy into my soul. (Psalm 94:17-19) I just want to thank my readers and friends who prayed in response to my post earlier this week. Over the last 3 years of writing, I have shared the highs and lows of my journey. I decided I would continue that honesty on my new blog. Pursuing God is not clean cut, but rather messy, confusing, and sometimes it is seemingly impossible. I am a work in progress...and my only hope is to encourage others and to hopefully bring God Glory. I say all of this because, for those who read and responded to my Personal Ramblings post, I wanted you to know that God heard your heart and mine…and if you’ve trekked along with me this past week, I hope you have already seen how He’s been working to bring Truth into it all. Last night I gathered with a group to pray and worship. I had opened my Bible and was randomly opened to Psalm 96. I may have even shared from that passage, but looking back now, I’m not sure what scripture I prayed through. There came a point in our prayer when I thanked God for meeting me this week and pulling me from the experience that gripped me Monday night. I opened my eyes a few moments later and my eyes glanced down on my open Bible only to see those verses from Psalm 94 staring back at me. I still don’t know what gripped me so deeply that I found myself where I did Monday night, but I do know that by Wednesday God was speaking loud and clear to my heart…it started Wednesday and even through the moments right before I sat down to type this out, God has been consoling me…His joy is filling and over-filling my soul (Thank You Jesus!). EVERYTHING I have come across through devotional, scripture reading, and hanging out with friends has spoken to me in ways I can’t describe. Praise God!! I still know nothing. I still struggle to control and wish I understood anything beyond what I think might happen tomorrow. This journey of Faith is still hard. But, as the Psalm says, God’s love is supporting me. Right now my eyes are fixed on Him and as a result I truly believe the weight of what I don’t know and understand is fading in the backdrop of His presence (see Phil 4:6-9). So, if you read my personal ramblings and responded in Prayer, I want to thank you…God is so, so FAITHFUL! As hard as it is…I know God is working. In the eloquent words of Hannah Whitehall Smith: “Having, therefore, taken the step of faith by which you have put yourself wholly and absolutely into His hands, you must now expect Him to work. His way of accomplishing that which you have entrusted to Him may be different from your way; but He knows best and you must be satisfied.” (God is Enough, p.67- March 23) I don’t know what God may be asking you to trust him for. Sometimes it’s the best feeling in the world to just “let go and let God”, but other times it seems like the hardest thing for us to do. God wants faith and trust…when we give that to Him, He is best able to do that which he has purposed for our lives. I’m right there on that journey…walking…stumbling…and sometimes flat out crawling along. Know that you’re not alone...and I’ll also cling to the fact that there are others walking with me…and together we’ll know that that God is here with us…walking, sometimes carrying…and always working out His plans, especially in those moments where we are unable to see. |
