Well I have to go to the doctor tomorrow, I have had bronchitus since dec and I'm a little better but still not healthy, but I stopped my blod thinners as of the first of this month so tomorrow is a check up. Weird, since my last blog I have had quite a time. Really different, different struggles, different blessings, different life. Took stock at the beginning of the year and I am getting back on track. School has started back in my life. A photography degree this time. Lots of arty stuff, fun but tiring. I still substitute teach when I can so my life is busy busy busy. Why am I blogging today though, well I felt like it. I realised that God had shown me something that I thought was cool and I wanted to share. Faith! big subject, many layers, lots of thoughts. Faith has action on our part. Let me describe it as a faucet. You know and trust that water will come out but you have to turn it on, that's your part. God provides the water, you have to trust Him which comes from your relationship with Him but you have to step out of the boat..... you have a part to play in the equation. Often we say God do your stuff, build my faith help me to believe when He is saying I am, but you do your bit.
God asked me to take His photo, strange eh!!!!! Showing who God is in my photography is my calling, to get there I have to take pictures, try out ideas, but it's more, I have to be a servant, for others, and bless others to be a blessing. That's my part too. Sounds a bit confusing but my point is, God wants to use us, not just do it for us, we want to be used, to grow, to be like Him, show His love, and His joy and His beauty, all parts of Him, but we have to act, to do, to be.
I love when God changes our ideas by doing. I was a prayer partner in our Life Advance weekend at church, part of our job is to pray for healing etc. Well I was thinking God, I'm sick, I can only do this if you do it, if you give me the words. The interesting part was that I didn't have the words, boldness, truth in action, leading from God till..... I opened my mouth and started talking. It was so cool, so exciting, God used me I loved it. I find I am as blessed as the lady I was praying for, so cool, so fun, so good.
Well it's late I know I should do this more when I have time but what's time ha ha, I'll love you and leave ya as my mam used to say, Have a great day...
