Current mood:aight
I was reading my devotional (My Utmost For His Highest) yesterday I believe, and I wanted to share some of the insites Oswald shares.

"'Be instant in season, out of season,' (2 Timothy 2:4) whether we feel like it or not. If we do only what we feel inclined to do, some of us would do nothing forever and ever....When the Spirit of God gives you a time of inspiration and insight, you say- 'Now I will always be like this for God.' No, you will not. God will take care you are not. Those times are the gift of God ENTIRELY. You cannot give them to yourself when you choose."

My favorite part about this is that he says "you cannot give them to yourself." I think we decide in that moment that we are all-powerful and are able to control our emotions, situations, and everything we come up against, but that feeling is all God. Our human minds are also forgetful...that moment cannot sustain us for the rest of our lives. We need to continually seek God to fill us. Many seekings and findings will sustain us for life. :) The beauty of it is that the same God that so filled us before, is the same God with us now, and will continually bring us through our PRESENT circumstances.

God is good.
