Two thoughts in one day...

hmm had another thougth that just wanted me to type right in. I was thinking of the two sermans I heard today (I know you think 2 sermans -- I'm searching so I'm participating well going to 2 completely different churches...) But anyways...the themes were similar but yet different on how it was presented. (go figure - 2 completely different people!) I as sat in the second serman...I started to think about a complex question. What if God really spoke to me and what would I want him to say directly to me? And if I could ask one acheivement for him to grant me what would that be as long as it glorified him? Let's just break these three questions down!

What if God really spoke to me directly?

Oh my God...I must be in really trouble! ha I don't know that he doesn't speak
to each person in different ways. Mostly through others but also through his
word (guess I really need to read a little more!) I think I would be shocked that he'd actually take his time to bother with me. I don't mean I'm a bother but you know there are other people out there that really need his attention! I don't think I'm a lightening bolt away! Maybe it would get my attention and bring me out of this gloom I've been living in for so long it seems.

What would I want him to say directly to me?
Tell me where the way out of this life is going to be. Or that his plan is this and to get there to this. I him to be precise and to the point. I don't want to have a lot of choices. I want to know the expectations and how to accomplish what he wants out of me. I want to know that I matter to him that he really truly loves me for me who I am even now as I question him and my being!


And if I could ask for one acheivement for him to grant; what would that be as long as it glorified him?

Ok...this one is a little be of a fanatasy or dreaming (wild imagination). I used to think when I was a kid wouldn't it be cool to get a chance to be in the oymplics (mind you I'm not good at any sport) but I know all things are possible through God...so therefore that's where this question rest...ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE THROUGH GOD (but I do know not all things are permissable -- but let me dream once in a while) I thought about be a great gyminist, ice skater, movie star and mother teresa...yeah that's a stretch! But you know one passion (if you call it that these days) would be the first NASCAR women to make it in the field. God could do that...I could be a great example of allowing God to rework me...maybe I'd actually like going to work every day! I like to go fast! I like to drive...I could do it 500 laps or miles...no problem! I've even thought of the potential sponsors I could get...churches from around the nation, christian organizations, relief groups...charities that don't get much recognition...and yet not charge for it because I would be winning enough to pay for what I only need. I don't think I want the money (it would be nice but I don't have to have money), I would need an accountability team to keep me grounded in the glory to God so that my pride wouldn't take over. Yes, I can see it now...Look out Jeff Gordon, Tony Stewart...I'm coming through and I've got God on my side as my crew chief!
