Hill Country Thoughts - A Coffee Cup Ministry

It is an absolutely beautiful night here in the Hill Country!

It is almost to hard to put in words how beautiful it is tonight sitting here on the porch. Oil lamp lit and the biggest and brightest orange moon I have ever seen in a long time, so bright as to almost take your breath away!

I would have to say the place that I love the most at this time in my life is the front porch because it is a place that I can come and sit down and shut off the activities of the day, of the week. A place that I can be still and know that my Father is in control. That He is aware of everything concerning me.

He will lead us in plain path. He will guide us in His ways and He will lead us in the path of life, that we will draw strength from Him! That He will enable us to walk in the fullness of who He is.

It really is a super evening. The men’s Wednesday night Bible study is really something that I look forward to. To have a group of men of various ages coming together because of the their love for the Lord and the Word of God is awesome. I know that it really pleases the Father.

That we can join together in unity, in oneness that draws us close to the Lord. That He blends us together so we can find strength in Him.

This evening has just been a night to reflect, to look back and see all that the Lord has done in my life.

From where I was two years ago, to where I am now. I am getting to a place that I even enjoy being around myself . The Lord has done a lot of work and there is more yet to be done but this time around He has made me aware of who He is in me. To know that I can truly live and walk in His ways, as can you. The Lord is wanting us to appropriate all that He has accomplished on the Cross.

The way has already been prepared. The path has been open. We just have to choose to walk through the door or stay where we are.

As for me, I choose to walk in all that the Lord has for me, to be able to give out of what He has given me. To share out of the reality of what He has done in my life, in my heart and in my spirit.

We all have a call, a purpose that the Lord has given us and there are things that have been written in our hearts, things that have been made real. Things that we can share, that will lift up, exhort and encourage others.

As we give out of what has been given us by the Lord, know that the Lord will fill us even more as we are willing to be pour out for Him.

Are you willing to be poured out?

Till later,

Paul
