Tuesdays with Tiz

Created to Become Like Christ

"The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord" Psalm 37:23

God's ultimate goal for my live on earth is not my comfort but my character development. His goal is to conform me to the image of His Son.(read Romans 8:28-29)

Friends, our loving God will do whatever is necessary to accomplish His purpose in our lives. With God, there are no accidents!!! I may think I have had a rough day or a rough week but God will use every circumstance in my life to conform me to the image of His Son... even to the point of allowing difficult people to cross my path. I cannot conform myself to His image...that is the Holy Spirit's job. My part is to yield to His will in my life and make choices that line up with God's Word. I take my hands off my life and let Him work even when it does not feel good. I just choose to trust Him and His Word even when I do not understand...after all we walk by Faith and not by our feelings. I am typing myself into the Glory Zone again!!!

"Father, I praise you and worship you today. I thank you that I can trust you in all circumstances in my life. I pray for someone reading this post today who is having a difficult time making sense of their circumstances. Help them to totally release the situation to you and experience the joy of you working your perfect will in their life. In Jesus name, I pray" Amen.

Tiz,

I want to thank you for your dedication to faithfully post these! I visit here every week have noticed your commitment to sharing what the Holy Spirit lays on your heart and I leave feeling blessed joy-filled.

Like you, I don't believe in accidents or coincidences - I believe in God-chances to build our character and work in and through us. Praise Him!

Hugs,
Deb

I love the scripture for this post. I love the post too :)

I stink at birthday wishes lately - truly. A belated Happy Birthday and I am so so so glad that a Tiz was born on July 13th not too many years ago. I am thankful for you.

Love you Tiz!
