I am not there yet! That is my life. I have been called out of this world by Christ Jesus, my Savior. I am forgiven by the shedding of His sacrificial blood. I am being transformed into His likeness now. I am not there yet though. I am not perfect. I am not sinless. I am not holy. I am not completely conformed to His likeness. I am still on my journey. This blog serves as a learning tool for myself and other pilgrims making this same journey. This is not a blog that will be about the events or people in my life. It is about the relationship that I have with my Lord and Savior. This blog will chronicle my journey... the ups, downs, self evaluations, desires, and discoveries. This is my journey... I am NOT THERE YET!

Does God speak in an audible voice? He can if He so chooses. Instead I find that He speaks to my heart though. I find that at times I am bombarded with voices (thoughts and desires) that are craving my attention. How do I even try to discern which voice belongs to the Lord? I use the right filter... God's Written Voice. In such a vast universe, it is impossible for me to find God, but thankfully He has revealed Himself through His Word. I know that God is never-changing (I have experienced His faithfulness). So, I know that God will never give me a message that will ever speak in contrast to His Word. I also know what I can do to know what God's will for my life is. I must renew my mind daily and present myself as a living sacrifice daily for my Lord and Savior. So, I will wake up tomorrow to die to myself. I am striving to hear God as He speaks. My thoughts need to be quieted. I know I am NOT THERE YET, but I will take each day as it comes and offer more of me each day.
