Reading in Daniel 2:31-45 the Lord helped me realize what Daniel had done. Here Daniel reveals to king Nebuchadnezzar a dream and its meaning which had troubled the king. All that Daniel told the king was all that Daniel had been shown by the LORD.
Question: Has the LORD given you something, which he designed to be given to others? Have you given it?
We are vessels through which our loving God pours out his blessings. Our blessings are intended to bless others as well. If we hold-on to what God has given us we are beginning to become a clogged vessel. The LORD will only allow us to have what we can manage (temptations & blessings - 1 Corinthians 10:13), only what will fit in the vessel. If you are holding on, let go. See as the Lord pours blessings into your life more than you can imagine. The more you let flow through, the more He will pour through. Only remember what clogged the vessel -- holding back one little thing at a time; over time you'll have nasty build-up. Let the Holy Spirit flow through you, as the cleansing water of the Word turn your life into a free-flowing Conduit of Grace.
Ryan, you are such a blessing! We miss you! Please pray for Andy. Thank you for thinking of me and for encouraging me to "let go and let God"!! Love ya, Kiddo! Judy
ReplyDeleteGreat reminder - everday the Lord has something for us to do. Whether it is someone in need and or kind word to say, Jesus brings us to thier way so He can reach out through us. We hesitate sometimes because we question if someone is "on the up and up"; but either way Jesus wants us to act in some way - whether a word of warning or care according to thier faith, it should cause them to reflect on God and His goodness and salvation in Jesus.
