Day 20: Water Color Pencils

 

Search me, O God, and know my heart: Point out anything you find in me that makes you sad.

Psalm 139:23-24

 

Day 20 rolling in!!! The day began with the Grier Gang eating pancakes and preparing for church. Their father was going to preach the Word at the 11 o'clock service. Yet, they didn't know. I knew they would be surprised and certainly blessed by the Word brought forth.  

As I watched my husband prepare for his sermon, I noticed he stayed focused and stayed connected in His communication with the Lord. And I witnessed the moment in which he knew what he would speak about. He allowed the Lord to search his heart, so that he could decrease and the Lord increase.

 

In this 31 Days of Faith Art Journaling, I certainly have to decrease daily. I pray and wait on the Lord for my scriptures. This journey is unlike my normal art journaling. I am clear I am to stay focused and connected. And then I am to be obedient. Most importantly for this journey is to speak about things that have caused me pain, anger, hurt, happiness and glee. That's hard sometimes. But I know God will get the glory out of this!

 

So, here we go!

If God were to search your heart, would he be sad? Happy? Confused? Hurt? Pray and ask the Lord to point to anything that is clogging your connection to Him. He will reveal to you what you need to pray for.

 



 

Prayer: Lord, help me to be honest and open. Vulnerability doesn't always feel safe. It makes me anxious sometimes. Yet Lord, someone needs to hear they aren't alone. Someone needs to know You are our Protector and our Healer. Lord, keep me connected. In Jesus Name.
