1 Thessalonians

In my quiet time this morning, I felt the sweet presence of God wash over as I began to read 1 Thessalonians. I don't remember if I have ever read it before, but you know how you can read something a hundred times and then God speaks or the Holy spirit moves and that word becomes rama in your life! Well as I was reading I just felt like God was reading this precious word over me and my sweet little family: 1 Thes 1:3 We continually remember before our God and Father your work produced by faith, your labor prompted by love, and your endurance inspired by hope in our Lord Jesus Christ. For we know, brothers loved by God, that he has chosen you, because our gospel came to you not simply with words, but also with power, with the Holy Spirit and with deep conviction.

I love powerful quiet times. It seems like when I start to pray for something my God is quick to answer. I have been asking God if I was doing what He wanted and making sure that our lives were pleasing to Him. As well as if He would examine my heart and make sure it was where it needed to be! He is so good!
