Some Quiet Time notes from the past week.

Well, as I mentioned in my last post I had some otes from my Qts. I only have about 20 miutes to write, but I will start on march 9th and move forward as quickly as possible.

John 17:1 Jesus wanted the Father to be glorified. HE was just getting ready to go to the cross, and He wated God to be glorified in it all. In His own death. He died to save humankid from there sin, to bring the Father glory. It rocks when people decide to serve God, it's like victory for Him, therefore bringing Him glory. As Matt Redman said, let the fire that fuels our missions be to brig God glory (may paraphraze). So I will continue to give glory to God for all the victories in my life, they are from Him, certainly not myself.

Onn March 12th I wrote about the apathy ad dicouragement that has been besetting me i my journal. Iwrote though that the night before, I had had a little bit of breakthrough. Even to the point where I didn't feel so bad about the expenditure of money on the MP3 player (which stilll hasn't arrived yet. A lot of things looked up that night, and the morning of the 12th.

Psalm 11:1 I really have to look and say "Do I really put my trust in Him? Or do I still worrie, ad wonder if I am being good enough?" Or have I will I can I do something to fall, not necisarily from salvation, but just plain fall. I have to trust Him entirely, because I have triedd before and failed, and the GIants keep on telling me time ad time again, Boy, You'll never win. But the voice of truth, that is God's voice, tells me to trust in Him.

Psalm 31:1 "In you I put my trust, O Lord. I need Your help for every aspect of my walk."

Psalm 41:4 "Be merciful unto me; heal my soul; for I have sined against thee." That can be hard to actualy say, I have sinned agaist You, yet I have, and I know it. Doing something right to just be right really makes it hard, cuz we think we are doing it, and then think we can do it. But I need Him, in this absolute state of dryness (and I know it could be worse, but aything less then flowing is dry) I need HIm so bad, yet, even whe all is flowing and well, all is roses, I need Him. I need Him. His Grace and Strength, to overcome, to cotinue to overcome, to hold gained ground. "Lord, I just can't do this onm y own, I need Your help."

Regarding Psalm 41:11 I wrote this in my joural:
I really wanted to get to this one this morning [writting it down, I readit the night before]. [having fealt] so... lost maybe? "By this I know that Thou favorest me, because my enemy doth not triumph over me." Look at all the help God has given me in overcoming strongholds in my life! He [is] so good! It wasn't me at all! And helping me stay out [even]! "I can't do it my ow at all, Lord. Thank You. I praise You Lord!

Well, I went over my 20 minutes, ad I want, need, to have a little time with God before I hit the sack.
