When the heart wants to go one way

and God wants me to go the other…

“God…you know how my heart feel(think?). What you are showing me right now is a path where I don’t really want to go. It feels like a struggle. You know the burden that I have. But I know you are a good God. For you have provided and protected me many times. Who am I to challenge where you want me to go. So if it’s Your Will, then I will as well. Please change my heart. Grant me the desire to continue to follow you and use me as You see fit.”
A Time for Everything

There is an appointed time for everything. And there is a (A)time for every event under heaven–

A time to give birth and a (B)time to die;
A time to plant and a time to uproot what is planted.

A (C)time to kill and a time to heal;
A time to tear down and a time to build up.

A time to (D)weep and a time to (E)laugh;
A time to mourn and a time to (F)dance.

A time to throw stones and a time to gather stones;
A time to embrace and a time to shun embracing.

A time to search and a time to give up as lost;
A time to keep and a time to throw away.

A time to tear apart and a time to sew together;
A time to (G)be silent and a time to speak.

A time to love and a time to (H)hate;
A time for war and a time for peace.
