As I’ve said many times, I write what God lays on my heart. I change things here as God directs me to. I am not here for me or to share what I want to. This corner of the blog world is the Lord’s. He will grow it in His time and in His way.
Many of the blog posts I’ve shared lately have hit very close to home. God uses them to reach me. I’m trying (daily) to remember all He has spoken to me and apply it to myself.
Taking the Time, Life….A $ Sign, Book of Mark Study, Encouraging Our Husbands; all posts that God has been speaking to me about, teaching me the new, re-teaching me the old…..again….
It is so easy to say or write things God lays on my heart. Yet, if God has laid it on my heart, I believe it is something I should listen to and learn from myself.
As I’ve been going through my days, and God has brought these posts to my mind, I was reminded of a saying that was very popular when I was a teen.
You can talk the talk, but can you walk the walk?? <—- Tweet
I wanted to share this with you. That I am learning from these posts. That I am a work in progress. I’m not perfect. These posts are just as much for me as for you. If not more.
I don’t want to just talk or write the words, I want to walk and live the words.
Praying that His words become my steps.
Amen! This is one of the reasons I started a new blog. I didn’t feel like I was being transparent. Thanks for sharing you heart and linking up to Thrive @ Home!
Yes transparency is important, but it can be scary. Taking us into the unknown, possibly putting ourselves on the “chopping block”. Trusting that God has given me the words to speak is what I remember. Thank you for stoppin by and for you honesty 😉 Blessings!
Visiting from A Day in the Life’s Thankful linkup! Great post! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for stoppin by! 🙂 Blessings!
I so agree… We need to walk daily with the Lord in all we do. Let the Glory rain down on your walk with God!
Thank you Kathleen! 🙂 Blessings! 🙂
This is something I’m always working on, especially when it comes to my kids. I’m always telling them, “Stop shouting!” but then realize I was the loudest of all when I said it. It takes a lot of humility to realize when we’re not walking the walk and try to redirect ourselves. Thanks for linking up at SAST and thanks for the great reminder!

I can relate to the shouting thing, I am trying to remind myself to be quieter not louder when I am speaking to my kiddos when they’re being difficult. Thanks for stoppin by! Blessings!
This is so my heart too! I definitely don’t want someone who knows me in person to read my blog and think, she’s nothing like that in real life. I want to be actively living what I talk about in that space. I really feel like God is using the blog to spur me along towards the things He wants me to do in my real life.
Yes, living our daily lives must reflect what we write, otherwise we write for naught. Writing definitely spurs me on to greater heights. Somehow the words on paper (yes I write my posts with pen and paper first LOL), speak to my heart louder than just reading or thinking to myself. Blessings friend!
