Beth Moore, http://www.lproof.org/about_beth_moore.asp, she is someone I really enjoy listening to every chance I get. I love how she describes her relationship with Jesus. I use to think, how is that possible, I want a relationship with Jesus just like hers.
I loved her story where she describes putting on ballet slippers and just dancing away for her Jesus. Or when she stayed in the governor's mansion and reminds Jesus she is not at home in case He was looking for her.
How do we come to a place where we can dance for Jesus? laugh with Him? tell Him about our day? remind Him we're not home in case He is looking for us? I yearned for what Beth Moore has with Jesus, but I didn't know how to receive it. Unfortunately or fortunately, I am learning through pain and trials how to show Jesus my new shoes.
I try to walk for exercise everyday, key word is try, lol. When I get out there I make sure it's "You and me, Jesus time". When I first started taking my walks I would pray for my needs instead of talking to Jesus. Now as I walk I begin to talk to Him and I picture Him looking at me from behind the mountains. I wave my hand and say "Hi Jesus, I love when you watch me walk". I know He loves to watch me walk and laughs when I trip, it happens. Lately I have been talking to Jesus out loud and then smile big when a fellow walker passes me by.
My trial has brought me to this place in my life with Jesus and I couldn't be happier. I am sorry it took my pain to cling to Jesus while I was drowning, but if that is what had to take place to get me here, praise God. I'm here now and I am not leaving this place.
I pray if you don't know HIM, get to know Him now. He's awesome and He is waiting to hear from you.
