Heart of Homeschooling

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding, in all your ways acknowledge him and he will direct your paths. Proverbs 3:5-6

Does God ever speak to you? Are you listening?

Does God ever speak to you? Are you listening? You have to quiet yourself sometimes to hear from Him. He speaks through His Word, devotions, other people, nature, etc. He confirms things he’s putting on your heart to encourage you on your path and purpose (and sometimes convict you to get you back on the right path).
This past week I’ve been feeling the Lord wanting me to pray about the words I speak (and my thoughts). He is showing me how subtle it is to have negative thoughts and words take root or become a bad habit in our life. I pray my words would be life giving and an encouragement to the hearer. I’ve been more attentive to my words each day as the Lord continues to teach me and show me what he desires. I’m learning to slow down and pray before speaking. It’s not easy!
Then this popped up today in my Jesus Calling devo. Hoping it encourages you about your words and how God can speak to you too about what He wants for your life! Pray today and ask Him what He wants for you!
Thank you Lord for your encouragement! ❤️
