How would you describe your relationship with God right now?

Hi,

I am keen to know where people are with their walk with God, what he is saying to them at this time,
what scriptures is he leading you to?
What is inspiring you to seek him? etc....

Welcome to BlogFrog!

Rebekah I believe God has me in a season of training and learning to wait on Him.  It is not easy, but He is faithful.  I love Jesus more than anything. 

I am a Christian book reviewer and also have a personal blog also. 

Nice to "meet" you.

Rebekah, welcome to BlogFrog!

Like Lori, I too am a book reviewer.  I tell Lori that when my book review blog grows up I hope it is like hers! 

I love Jesus because He first loved me!  I am growing in my walk with Him and learning each day just how sinful I am and how gracious He is.  I don't mean to be a copy cat here, but I agree with Lori and say that I feel a bit the same way about being in a more learning and preparation stage of my life and walk with Christ.  I look forward to seeing how God uses me over the years.  Right now I am reading through Matthew.  But if you would like to see my Bible reading plan...visit this post.

Thanks Ladies!

I am in the slow process of writing a book myself at the moment, nit sure if it is something I will keep for myself and friends or if I will go down the publishing route. I guess God knows!

I am in a season of sitting at his feet, returning to my first love, being more like Mary and trying to be less like Martha. 

I long to be close enough to him, so that I am sensitive to his Spirit and hear his voice, even when he whispers.

Bless you both.



Hey!

My current walk with God is awful.  This past year I have slipped away so much and done so much wrong.  So currently, my "walk" is remembering that He is always there even when I'm not.  He will stick with me through running the other way, and he will be there when I return.

Hey Laura,

You are right, he never leaves us or forsakes us.

Why do you think you are struggling to walk closely to him at this time in your life?

I'm not sure why I'm struggling to walk so closely to him.  I mean, I have the foundation to be close to him (Christian family, been going to church my whole life, currently attending a Christian college, Christian friends and Christian mentors) but I'm chose not to.  I chose to "live like I'm a normal college kid" as my friends and I said when this all began.  Now I'm slowly trying to get back to God, but I've came to the realization that my head and my heart are in two different spots.  So I have to change my hearts desire in order to be at his feet for good.

I'm in a questioning/searching phase right now.

  I was born and raised Catholic and now, in my mid-forties I am finding that my beliefs line up less and less with the tennents of the Catholic faith and much more with the non-denominational faiths.

This leads me back to one question over and over again, one which I don't have an answer to yet.  Is there ever a time when one becomes so removed from the beliefs of their religion that they should consider leaving that religion behind?

Like I said, I don't know the answer to that question yet, but I know that God loves me and I love him and he is right beside me as I struggle.

Jlynn,

This is a good place for you to be in. God is not afraid of questions and seeking...
 

Proverbs 8:17 

 17 I love those who love me, 
       and those who seek me find me.

I Pray that you will find the answers in your search.

Rebekah

I feel pretty good in my relationship with God. It's been a rough couple years but I am feeling good - reading my Bible more and praying. There's some issues that are on my heart but I'm praying and trusting that I'll know what to do through his guidance.

Thank you for stopping by my community! :)

Amen to that Megan!

I am also very thankful - I think all to often we fall into the trap of taking things for granted, recently, i have been surrounded by a lot of hurting friends , desperate people, who do not know God as a close friend, and it makes you so grateful for his love, his gifts, family, stability, food, health ...

I have to repent when i am tempted to forget his benefits!
