DELIGHT THYSELF ALSO IN THE LORD

Many of you that has followed my blog for the last year 

know that many times along the way I post that 

it's time to wait, watch and pray. The reason 

for doing this is I feel very strongly that if 

God wants to move in and through Digging a 

Well Ministries that he is going to direct our

path. It's very easy to get excited and start 

moving in front of what God is doing instead 

of in line with what he is doing. For 

over a week I had done just that:

wait, watch and pray and ask the Lord to 

open doors for me in ways that only

he can do. 

It is very rare that I leave the office to go eat as 

I normally take something with me and just

eat at the office. Friday I became extremely 

unsettled and the more I tried to feel comfort

I couldn't feel it. I picked up my day-timer and

headed out to go to the cafeteria and get a glass of 

tea and see what they had even though I didn't 

plan on eating. I had only been to the 

cafeteria a couple times in five months

As I arrived in the cafeteria a young lady

said hello to me. We exchanged the normal 

greetings and then she said, "would you like

to sit with me"? So I went and got a glass of 

tea and a slice of meat. As we sat and talked

she said something and I told her I would 

pray for her. 

She acted as if I had opened a candy bar and handed

it to her. She told she had been praying that 

God would send her a woman of God to 

walk by her side and to encourage her and 

be her friend. She said several times I have

had this burning in my soul and it is thirty for 

something more and I just can't seem 

to be able to quench the thirst. 

We sat for an hour basking in the pleasures

of the Lord as she realized God had answered her

prayer and I realized he had caused me to feel so 

very uncomfortable in my own little world so that 

I would walk down and walk right into her world.

Delight thyself also in the LORD; 

and he shall give thee the 

desires of thine heart.

Commit thy way unto the LORD; 

trust also in him; and he shall 

bring it to pass.

And he shall bring forth thy 

righteousness as the light, and thy 

judgment as the noonday.

Rest in the LORD,

and wait patiently for him: 

Psalm 37:4-7
