It is always amazing to me when something happens that I know is God. This morning I was about not to go somewhere. My mind rehearsed the many reasons why it would be more reasonable to stay home. My heart knew that I was supposed to go and just at the time I needed that little push, I scrolled through my face-book posts and someone had literally spoken exactly what I was thinking except they answered all my reasons with a nudge to attend anyways. I have never seen this person post anything like that before, and I knew that it was my own little reminder.

I think there was a time that I wasn’t quite as aware of God’s reminders. I wasn’t quite aware that God could speak to me in ways I hadn’t been taught he would or maybe I just had developed preconceived ideas of what was him or not. Sometimes, I also think I didn’t believe in myself enough to recognize him for who he was. I always needed one more confirmation to believe.

But, lately I have become more aware of him. Life has been easier since I started more easily following him. I don’t need to sit down and figure a lot of the things out which caused my mind so much trouble before. Now I more readily accept those little reminders. Now I believe more the things that once seemed abstract to believe.

Life seems to flow more easily now that I’ve taken some of the restrictions off of God. I’ve let him flow how he wants to flow. If I feel like something is the right way to go, I just start walking that way. If I look down during prayer to read a bible verse that seems like a direct instruction to what I just prayed, I accept it as that. Life just seems better now.
