Bible Study with Beth Moore

So last night was Lesson 5 of The Inheritance with Beth Moore. If you've never done a Bible study with her, you need to. She has a unique way of looking at the word of the Lord. Well she was talking about how God drops things on you. Not like anvils or boulders but ideas, epiphanies in the subtle way He does. I've had these God dropped ideas before. They weren't earth shattering but they were exactly what I needed when I needed it.

I'm an artist and the other day I was trying to figure out how to even start a piece and I got little "visions". I know, sounds silly, but these visions were like a step by step how to on starting this piece. It's happened before. When I'm stuck I can see how things should go. I can see my hands moving the brush a certain way. I can see another alternative to an even better end result. And after I get the hint, I look up and say, "Thank you."

So I knew exactly what Beth was talking about! It's these little things that connect me to God. All this time I thought it would be some GIGANTIC EPIPHANY and God's voice would reverberate in my head and there would be mountains trembling and bushes bursting into flame but no. No. The connections we have to God, I should say the connections most of us have to God are a whisper. But its enough.

I'm not so sure I can handle the gigantic epiphany. I would probably soil myself and there I would be, before The Almighty in soiled clothes. Not that He would care of course but really...can you imagine anything more embarassing? I'll take the whispers. I need a few more whispers though. Greed little thing that I am. But I would appreciate more guiddance.

Thus far He has me working on this art bent and that's great because I'm loving it. I just don't see myself making a living on it. Everyone seems to like my work but not a whole lot of people are buying it. I just wish He'd point me in a more profitable direction. I'd like to be able to pay my bills! LOL! Patience has never been my strong suit so maybe I need to work harder on that.
