317 Zephaniah Way

Girls' Day Out Fun

Get a Grip!

I seem to be continually standing in amazement of how incredible our God is. He takes a person who is so imperfect and uses her to reach others...to be His hands and feet. It is so humbling, incredible, mind-bottling...

For what ever crazy reason He has, God has chosen to use sinful and incapable me in so many ways this year. It all began with simply saying, "Okay, I'll give it my best shot." This is all God asks of us...to do our best and allow Him to do the rest. My friend, when you tell God that you'll do your best at what He asks of you, be sure to grab on and hang on tight! Even the smallest obedience is guaranteed to leave you in amazement. And so the unbelievable ride of your life begins.

God continues to grow, stretch, and strengthen my faith, confidence, and talents. I am left in awe of our loving Father and His incredible ways.

How about you? Have you said "Yes, Lord" lately? If not...why not? Get a strong grip and brace yourself...God is waiting to hear you say, "Yes, I'll do my best"...then hold on tight as the ride of your life begins!

Need encouragement? Listen to this video. Natalie Grant's song "Perfect People" nails it!

Wow, thank you for that post. It was so encouraging to me! I need to work on just saying "I'll give it my best shot," and seeing what the Lord can do with it.

Thanks again!

Hi Jennifer! I've missed you here and periodically click over to see if you've posted. So I was so delighted to get your comment at my place, thanks!
I understand about not being in to the whole blogging scene right now. I think I would enjoy it more if it didn't take me so long to get a post up, I'm just not a quick typer and I can be so anal about typos that I'm constantly rechecking myself. Anyway, enjoy your break from this and then when you come back you can tell us what God's been doing in your life lately :-)!
Blessings friend! Julie

Welcome to 317 Zephaniah Way! Stay for a spell and make yourself at home. We are traveling down this winding road of living and learning...what an adventure! I find great encouragement from Zephaniah 3:17, "The Lord your God is with you. He is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you. He will quiet you with His love. He will rejoice over you with singing." I think Zephaniah 3:17 perfectly sums up who God is and how He feels about each of us. I never want to move away from the Truth this verse speaks…so I’ve made it my permanent address.
