June 10, 2009 - Expecting from the Lord

Wow! It is has been a while since my last posting but can I tell you that it is because the Lord has been blessing and sharing so much with me that I just cannot always put it in words!
I am just truly amazed at how the Lord will birth something in you and as you grow in the Lord and keep you eyes on Him, that dream that He has birthed in you begins to grow and begins to show just as a lady who is ready to deliver a child. Just as the lady with child, she eats and rest for not just herself but for the child inside of her. I truly believe that God expects us to do the same when he has birthed a dream in us. We must eat and rest so that we can be our best during this time of carrying this dream.
Pastor Paul, how can we do this? Great question, the Bible tells us that we should, "pray continually", that we should "read the Word of God daily" and we should spend time in "praise and worship". When we do these things, we can rest assured that God will do His part and we can carrying this dream to full term. Not only will we get to carry this to full term but we will see this dream come forth and grow as the Lord said it would.
So today, let me encourage you and say that if God has birthed something in you, follow through on that dream and you nurture that dream until God has brought you to full term and births that dream for everyone else to see.
God bless you as you "Expect from the Lord" today!
Pastor P
