Tag Archives: Your ways are not my ways

Teach me oh Lord….


Psalm 86:11 says: “Teach me your way, O LORD, and I will walk in your truth; give me an undivided heart, that I may fear your name.”.

Sometimes in life as humans, we don’t like to be told what to do or how to do something……  I know as a child growing up, some of things my mother taught me still stand strong in my life today….   I believe when we began to look at teaching at home from  Mom and Dad being your first educators to equip you for the real world called life…..    It’s when we as people stop teaching what Momma, Daddy, Grandma and Grandpa taught us…   I say if it was good enough for them, then it’s good enough for  me….

My Mom has always been a firm believer in Jesus Christ….   I was born into this wonderful name of Jesus and I thank her…   I was born into education, as I was the baby girl and watched my oldest sister which is 11-years-older than I go off to UCLA… The bar was set high in my family, and I’m grateful for such a foundation to know that I can be educated and still lovc Jesus and do it his way… It can be done, and is what I choose to do all the days of my life…

I’m the first to tell anyone that I’m not perfect, but the Jesus in me lets me know that If I do things his way, I can be as close to perfect as it gets in life….    I love the above scripture and it speaks directly to my heart….. It says: Teach me your way, O LORD, and I will walk in your truth; give me an undivided heart, that I may fear your name…  God, today… I’m willing to learn how to listen more, how to love more, how to  have more patience, how to share more in whatever area I can help another person in….     Oh God… Teach me, and know that you have my undivided heart… I give you my whole heart, my whole mind and my soul which my spirit is now like you spirit, and now my ways are like your ways…. In Isaiah 55:8-0 it says : “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the LORD. – As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts. – “Lord,  as long as my thoughts are like your thoughts, I can see no way that I could go wrong”   Your love is sufficient for me, and I’m so glad that I made it, and I’m thankful for my testimony…..  It may not be like yours, but know that God has been good to me and he continues to see me through….
