One thing I've noticed during all this thinking is . . .
that I am always thinking!
Thinking, thinking, thinking...
Trying to work the details out in my head...
Trying to make sense of how it will all look...
and feel...
and function...
I think all day long about it.
I wake up in the middle of the night,
and I think about it.
I say my morning and evening prayers
praying about it...
then thinking about it some more.
One morning I woke up with the thought in my head...
"Whoa! You're right!" I said.
"Thank you!"
I love it when the spirit teaches me!
I have been so wrapped up in my head!
And I wasn't stopping to listen.
I would pray for answers and then immediately be off
in my own head again, trying to reason it out!
I imagine He might be trying to get a word in,
but I'm dominating the conversation!
The Lord's plan may be completely different
than what I think my plan should be like.
So I just need to stop.
And listen.
So I just need to stop.
And listen.
What a great reminder! I often get too caught up in my own head as well.
ReplyDeleteIt's surprising how much we are in our heads thinking. I never realized before! :D
DeleteSounds good! I appreciate the reminder. :)
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome Jeanine! :D
DeleteHave you considered journalling? I find it better channels my thoughts than lots of thinking (which I admit I do too much of). After several weeks of daily writing - even if it's just notes-jotting, I can see ideas and dreams more focused into action items supporting a vision.
