Listen

I just want to hear Gods voice.

and know.
that I know.
that I know.

His word for my life.

I need to make a decision. 
Based on the plans He has for me.

I wouldn't care what anyone else said.
IF I knew what He said.


For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. In those days when you pray, I will listen. 13 If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me.

Jermiah 29:11-12 NLT

Meghan, God will reveal His plan for you when you're ready for it. He's not going to leave you stranded. It is possible to listen too hard for what He's trying to tell you, and then you miss it.

I know this because I struggle with this all the time, myself. And sometimes both choices seem equal, and it's extremely frustrating. When the brain is just as big a loud mouth as the heart, it's hard to tell which one is which sometimes.

Step back, take a deep breath, and trust in Him. He'll give you your answer. Sometimes it's just not the answer you want to hear, and that just clouds things even further. I tend to be a little bit stubborn in those situations.

“So do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised.”- Hebrews 10:35-36

At the time you were writing this, I was in prayer at Praise Gathering (a weekly worship night at NorthCentral.edu, my school) and the Lord was speaking to me vividly about how someone in my life who is distant will be facing a wall. He encouraged me to encourage this person. Burry, I know that you are a strong, faithful woman of God, and I know that His voice will become clear to you, but let me remind you that our God has his side of mystery. He will reveal His will to you in His own timing. Dear friend, cease not to seek His clear and powerful voice, for It will bring you strength and hope. You are loved, Ms. Burry. :)

Now i dont mean to ofend you, as i respect your personal beliefs, but maybe rather then putting your choices in the hands of god, maybe try and trust yourself, rather then waiting around. Have faith in yourself, trust yourself, you are an amazing human being who can accomplish so much.

He shall accept you. Stop hiding. Be honest with yourself and be honest with your fan base. Give us hope.

The first time I was trying to hear from Him I upset cause no matter how hard I tried I couldn't hear!
But my problem was not that I couldn't hear him it was the way I was listening!
I thought I would hear this thundering voice from heaven telling to what I should do. ( not saying that's what you think)
but it wasn't that way for me!
For me He more so let's me know!
I don't know what your going through! Seek Him and His heart over every thing! And He will let you know what to do!

I don't know what exactly you're dealing with, but just remember that you have thousands of people who support you and would love to help you if they can.

There's also a website called bibletopics.com that may be able to offer some help. It can tell you what The Bible says about nearly any topic.

"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go."
Joshua 1:9

I hope you start feeling better soon. God bless.

Regardless of what anyone says you'll find your place sooner or later.

Just for the simple fact that you're tryin....don't care about what people say, good or bad, even what i'm saying.

The only thing that's real is what's spoken from your soul.

God does not work in absolutes. All you have to do to see that is look around at his chaotic universe all based on probability. He gave you a free will so that you can live your life in his image.

Meghan, thank you. I needed to read that. I'm struggling with knowing God's will for my own life right now, and this post really encouraged me to keep trusting, and believe that his plans for me are for good and not for disaster. Thank you for letting God use you to reach so many people. You are a blessing. Thanks. =D
