I've experienced God in brand new ways since reading "Wonder Struck" by Margaret Feinberg.http://www.margaretfeinbergstore.com/products/wonderstruck-awaken-to-the-nearness-of-god God has shown up in big ways! I've seen Him answer prayers in very unique ways. He's revealed Himself lots through scripture. There's one thing that's constant in this Wonder Struck journey: A daily invitation to come spend time with Him! Time to sit at His feet and worship, to lay down my burdens, to feast upon His Word that is sharper than any two-edged sword. (Hebrews 4:12 King James Version). Part of that invitation requires me to be still and know that He is God. (Psalms 46:10 KJV)
Now if you know me personally, you know that sitting still is a challenge! I'm a busy body, happier than a little bit, a beam me up Jesus girl indeed! It's naturally difficult for me be down much less sit still for longer than 5 minutes unless you have my attention. However, God invites me to be still and know that He is God. It's there in the quiet moments that He shows up and makes known His majesty to me. It's there He whispers, "I've heard your prayers for _____ but keep trusting me."
Some days tears roll down my face in complete awe of who Jesus is! He truly leaves me Wonder Struck. His promises don't fail, He loves me unconditionally, and He's an amazing Heavenly Father to me! His daily invitation to me to spend time with Him is priceless. I can't wait to hear what He has to say, what He wants to show me, or what promises He wants to remind me of.
It's true, this journey is impossible without Him. This invitation to live Wonder Struck by Jesus is one that I love to experience daily!
Please if you've not gotten a copy of "Wonder Struck" please go buy a copy from my precious friend Margaret Feinberg. www.margaretfeinberg.com. I know you could buy it elsewhere, but as a favor to me and my precious friend, buy it from her website please. She's now cancer free and the medical bills are there to be paid. All of the proceeds help pay her medical bills. Thanks in advance for blessing my sweet friend!
