Proverbs 4 - 6; Romans 8

Had a lonely morning with noone from my 'group' showing up this morning. Trying not to get caught up in it being my fault (all about me) but honestly struggling with that. Wanting always wanting to BE an encourager and feeling more and more that I drain the people around me. Hearing 'be still and know'....believing that in that knowing I could become more loving...fighting the urge to be heard ...wanting desperately to BE more loving..GNO tonite wanting desperately to love them and afraid I will walk in needing their love....
So Abba a day of looking to You and only You, Your Son, allowing Your Spirit to take me where I NEED to be...........praying to follow wherever You lead.

Romans 8: 22-25 All around us we observe a pregnant creation. The difficult times of pain throughout the world are simply birth pangs. But it's not only around us; it's within us. The Spirit of God is arousing us within. We're also feeling the birth pangs. These sterile and barren bodies of ours are yearning for full deliverance. That is why waiting does not diminish us, any more than waiting diminishes a pregnant mother. We are enlarged in the waiting. We, of course, don't see what is enlarging us. But the longer we wait, the larger we become, and the more joyful our expectancy.
26-28 Meanwhile, the moment we get tired in the waiting, God's Spirit is right alongside helping us along. If we don't know how or what to pray, it doesn't matter. He does our praying in and for us, making prayer out of our wordless sighs, our aching groans. He knows us far better than we know ourselves, knows our pregnant condition, and keeps us present before God. That's why we can be so sure that every detail in our lives of love for God is worked into something good.
