Have I stopped listening to God? No. If
God would tell me to invest in another venture, I would talk it over with my
husband, and being sure that I was hearing from God, I would then take
action. I am not fearful of stepping out
on my faith.
I used to have an obsessive fear over bees. I would run if one would come near me. I would dream that one bee would aim his
stinger directly at my jugular vein (the large vein in my neck), and I would
awake in a chill. One night I prayed and
asked God to help me. I didn't know the
Bible at that time. The amazing thing
was that God gave me a scripture, and I looked it up. It was just what I needed to be delivered
from my fears: "And He said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? How is it that ye
have no faith?” (Mark 4:40). I
had to give my fear over to God and trust Him to help me to conquer my
fear. There is a difference between fear
and respect. A bee has never stung me
because I do respect their territory, yet I won't run from them anymore.
I know that God has a plan and a purpose for our lives. Sometimes we know what it is right away, and
at other times, we may find out in due season. “God
has a purpose for my life. No other
person can take my place. It isn’t a big
place to be sure, but for years I have been molded in a peculiar way to fill a
peculiar niche in the worlds work” by Charles Stelzle.[1] Father does know best.
Praise God, in spite of what some would call overbearing
situations; I bask in the peace of God.
The devil still tries to disillusion me about the books which are to be
published, yet I rebuke him whenever he shows his angry head. Praise God for His peace.
