Day 10 - 1 John it is!

Well, today I was going to overview Titus and write about what I got from the whole chapter. I didn't, but overall I think the basic message is: God's grace enables us to live godly lives and be good stewards of His reputation.

I wanted to write about my morning devotionals with Casey and Mom. I was so shocked and happy when I heard that they do devotionals I almost Eeped for joy! I was so worried about them not going to church that when I found out they were getting into the Word (even if it's only by Day Bread) I was SO happy.

Well, I feel like I'm getting a lot closer to You and that I'm better following Your will because of how things work out. For instance, I asked You yesterday to show me if I should be in 1 Peter or 1 John. I wanted both, but didn't know which to choose and thought I should ask You because You know better what I needed and what I should be prepared for. I told You that I didn't know how You were going to do it but that I was going to trust that You would

Well, during morning devotionals - the Scripture was 1 John. I think I got my answer.

Now, I don't expect answers to come when I want them, or be so clear all the time. I think though that when we're first trusting God fully He gives us a grace period to see what He can do. I'm praying for faith once answers seem harder and fewer between.

Thank You Jesus for my mom and Casey being in Your word, and also, thank You for showing me where You want me to go :)
