"But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty; and the base things of the world and the things which are despised God has chosen and the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are, that no flesh should glory in His presence, but of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God - and righteousness and sanctification and redemption - that, as it is written, "He who glories, let him glory in the LORD."" 1 Corinthians 1:27-31


"He who glories, let him glory in the LORD."  GOD has been dealing with me all week, with this verse.


I confess, I've been preoccupied with the lack of interest in my blog and the LORD showed me that my heart was not in the right place.  I was focusing on the "stats" and becoming disheartened; feeling like I was wasting my time! I reasoned, "I try to support my friends, why arent' they supporting me, in my effort?"


When I started three years ago, posting scripture to my Facebook page, it was just as an encouragement to my friends; as the LORD put upon my heart. Occasionally, I would even post a note, when something was heavy on my heart. However, I had no idea, who or how many was reading. The occasional "like", encouraged me to continue, although that was not why I did the post! I just felt compelled to be an encouragement; knowing that the Word of God never returns void!


I have now decided to "return to" posting the scripture the LORD lays on my heart, to my Facebook page, and if there is more, then in obedience, I'll post to my Blog! That may happen daily - it may not; I will not be in bondage to my blog nor it's "stats"!


"As if"  I had anything to say, on my own, that anyone would want to follow!  If I say anything of any value on Facebook or my Blog,(or anywhere else in the world, for that matter) it will be The LORD; using my mouth and receiving ALL the glory!


Take that, devil!


Even so - MARANATHA!
