Being Still

Well you'll be glad to hear that over the weekend I went to my cousins wedding and didn't cave in to having a drink. I managed to go the weekend without. so I'm doing ok so far!
The wedding was really nice and brought a little tear to my eye when they said their vows and again when they had their first dance.

Really bored yesterday, I find Sundays really boring. I get up and go to church, that bits fine. But then Sunday afternoon consists of making Sunday dinner and that's it. We never do anything like go for a walk which I think would be a nice time for me and my boyfriend to just have chats without the tele on and enjoy each others company.
Yesterday I was a bit mopey and didn't know what to do with myself. but then I just thought, I'll go on the sunbed and listen to my Ipod, then run a hot bath and sit in that with a face mask on.
Anyone that knows me knows I go 100 miles an hour and have to be occupied, I hate just sitting still with nothing to do. But yesterday I quite enjoyed just indulging in a bit of me time and it was good cos I did a bit of reflecting on my relationship with God and realised perhaps I could spend some more time just being still with God.

So this is the next challenge, finding more time for God!

From the study we did on Wednesday we looked at a few examples in the bible where it says that Jesus went off on his own and left the disciples and sat and prayed. So maybe I need to take a leaf out of his book and do this too. Then I sat in bed last night and read this from a magazine I picked up from church

Psalm 46 V10

“Be still, and know that I am God! I will be honored by every nation. I will be honored throughout the world.”

Also since we studied the passage about asking God (mentioned in a previous blog) it has been referred to in a magazine I read and also again in church on Sunday. I think I've go the message now!
