PRUNING

It's often difficult to hear God speak when we are talking over him with an obnixious focus on our frustrations. I say this only because I walk through this season pretty often and I know it's my own fault. But recently I have been thinking a lot about Moses, funny huh, yes and no! Moses, Moses, Moses, who are you amongst the greatest ruler on the face of the planet, well in the natural, nobody. But the funny thing is God pruned alot of bad branches on thst boy to make him ready in the spiritual for his somebody moment. His somebody moment only happened to make some body famous. God. When God is speaking it's good to remind ourselves that God has no branches to be pruned and when he speaks it's often the shears that will be prunning our areas that need to be fixed. Moses had many frustrations, but once he got the picture and stopped looking at his own situtations and started looking at what God was doing he realized that it was a lot of pruning to get him ready maybe for something big maybe for something small but none the less it was God getting him ready for something that God was doing, that is a much more important thing to fixed on, so let's get rid of those dead branched and make room for more growth.

I'm ready to step outside the box too. God is good when he reveals Himself to us isn't He? I not only need to hear His word but act upon it...
Thanks....
