Small and Simple
I think my expectations for this have totally changed. Whenever I try to focus on promptings or on what the Lord wants me to do, I feel like I should get huge promptings. I should get "Go to sister so and so right now," or even, "this is what you should do for YW." But as I think about it, if the Spirit is supposed to be a constant companion, most of what we're directed to do will be to help us in what we are constantly doing, right? They will be promptings to put down our phones, to engage more, read more, smile more, do more, etc. And by these small and simple things will great things come to pass!
I have been having weird hormone things happening, and I had the prompting to call my friend to get my feet zoned, so I did. She called and cancelled this morning. So I am still struggling with feeling like some of the promptings I'm following through with are not going anywhere. Maybe my vision is short sighted. Maybe the Lord is testing to see if I will follow, or maybe they're not true promptings. Patience is not my strong suit. ;) But I'm willing to just keep trying. Again, it brings me peace to know that I have done something, not to sit and wonder if I should, or if it would really help.

I love your wisdom. Thank you.
