When I first started thinking about writing a blog I had to think through the title of my blog. Several suggestions were made but “Walking with the Father” became very clear in my mind and heart. I have always like to walk and spending time with my heavenly Father is priority in my day. Yesterday at church, Andy spoke about what happens when he doesn’t spend time in the Bible or time with the Father. He listed the following things of which I will add my own interpretation from a woman’s perspective.
Number 1 was that ‘we magnify the weakness of others instead of looking at our own weaknesses.” I amen that one. I think we as women deal more with that than men.
Number 2 “we evaluate this life as if this is all there is and we lose the eternal perspective.” Whew, have I been guilty of that as I mope around with a long face not only making myself unhappy but everyone that crosses my path.
Number 3 “We tend to close our hands to others” In other words become selfish and think about our selves and our needs.
And number 4 is holding on to anger too long.
Well, if you needed the encouragement to pick up your Bible and read, I pray that these thoughts will encourage you to spend some time and “Walk with the Father” in the best place possible, His Word.
