I am not moved by what people say or do concerning my relationship with God. I submit myself to His direct will, which is good and perfect with no evil in it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've learned through my own relationship with God that He's not expecting me to be perfect; He wants me to do my best to be in His will and take steps of faith as He leads me, through His Word and the promptings He speaks to my heart.
I think I just learned that God has a plan for all of us, and I work hard and do all the things I can, but at the same time, His will is perfect; and me trying to control it, it's not going to work.
Each of you is a unique child of God. God knows you individually. He sends messages of encouragement, correction, and direction fitted to you and to your needs.
I don't really have control over my path - only the Lord does - but I do have control over my decisions.
God is more interested in your future and your relationships than you are.
You don't give God authority over your life. He has it, totally.
I think often that God is guiding me.
I think that God gives you your own will and choices. I don't believe that we're supposed to drag ourselves through life defeated and not see God's blessings. But you have to make the right choices and follow that still, small voice within you. Because I think that's how God leads us.
I don't seek the counsel of God. God doesn't speak to me on what I should or shouldn't do.
When I sit down to write a novel, I am exploring my own relationship with God, with the struggle between good and evil, my own purpose.
