Delighting yourself in the Lord (Being Moldable)

Hey guys!

I hope you had a great weekend! I know I did. Okay, I'm just going to get straight to the point on this one. Isn't it weird how God works things out just perfectly. Today, My friend Katelynn asked me to go with her to another church with her to hear a friend play guitar but I had this weird feeling that I shouldn't. There was something going to be said at LOHBC that I needed to here and I could sense it. I waited and I waited and then Kristine Burns got up and sang the song: I am yours by Misty Edwards and it really spoke to me. I'll put the lyrics at the end of this blog and then Mrs. Mary Anne (I don't know how to spell her name, Sorry :) and anyways she sang the Potter's Hands. And Chris was talking about how we, as christians should be moldable. We should let God shape us into who we should be. Are you who you are supposed to be in Christ? Have you been doing what is needed to glorify me? Have you let me mold you? were all the questions running through my head and most of the answers were no. I am a very strong willed person if you don't know me and I have found out that it is very hard for me to give everything up to God to mold. And I think we should give every aspect of our life up to God for him to mold. I like to think of it this way, It's like God is sculpting us each into this beautiful sculpture but he gives us the choice of what he can sculpt. We begin as one big chunk of clay and then we give up one area at a time and he does what he needs to them and as he cuts what is not needed out sometimes it hurts. When we give up every "square inch" of our lives to God then we will end up being a beautiful sculpture but when we don't we still have those big chunks of gray in our lives. I don't know if that made any sense to you guys at all but that's what helps me understand it. A lot of the time I give up an area to him and then I yank it back when it begins to hurt.  But I should be able to trust him with it. Like brother Dan said on a comment in my last entry God has never let us down before. And so why would he on this? So I should know that though it hurts now that there will be an awesome outcome. Anyways, Kim Porter, an awesome lady at our church comes on stage and said that the original hebrew word for delight means being moldable. BAM! Kim you were telling that to me. That's why I was supposed to be at our church tonight. I have been debating on what the word delight means for a while now. So that's it. That what God wants me and everyone else to be. MOLDABLE, which means to be formed into a different shape. Don't you think God is trying to shape us into being more like him. God is trying to shape us all as christians to be more loving, unprejudiced, nonhypocritical christians. Anyways God was telling me Child, we are going to have to work on a few things (not a few, a lot) and it's going to hurt a little, but you are going to have to give them completely to me before I can help you. So I just thought I'd share that.  

Here's those lyrics to I AM YOURS:

Though I sleep, My heart is awake. 

Though it's night, on you I wait.

It's been a long night, and I am weary.

It's been a long night, and I am hungry.

So I'll wait in the stillness again. 

I'll wait in the quiet again.

For when I heard your voice

when you said my name

When I heard your voice

My heart it yearned.

In the middle of the night

In the middle of the night

In the middle of the night

My heart it yearns.

Though you're far away, still I'm here to say

I am yours. I am yours.

And when you feel so far away, still I'm here to say

I am yours. I am yours. 

And I pay my vows, no turning around

I burn the bridges that can't be found.

For when I heard your voice

And you said my name

When I heard your voice

My heart it yearned for you.

Oh and I wanted to ask everyone (I want all of my 3 followers haha and anyone else to read this to answer) a question. Just leave a comment to answer please.

               What is God to you?
