Labor without God- Ecclesiastes 2:11-Then I looked on all the works that my hands had wrought, and on the labour (bible spelling) that I had laboured to do: and, behold, all was vanity and vexation of Spirit, and there was no profit under the sun.
I spent many years doing what I thought was right and following the direction of spiritual leadership instead of God…and when God revealed that to me it broke my heart and I cried. All of the various conventions and women’s conferences, just busy, busy, busy for the Lord instead of with the Lord. BUT NOW I AM FREE! Thank you, LORD!!!!
Wheeeeweee !!! My God prayerfulpalm…. I definately can relate to your testimony about being so busy for the lord instead of WITH the Lord. My,My, and My..But God! I am happy that God revealed it to me as well.I am thankful that he exposed”ALL” of itππ»ππ»ππ». We may not have liked it at the time because of the pain and remorse it brought to us. But I would rather him expose the wrong doing to us personally and or through other spiritual eyes and or prophecy for confirmation. It allows us to correct the wrong doing to begin anew. Knowledge is power and when we know better we can do betterβ€
Deblynsmith it was painful but you’re right, I now know better so I’m working on doing better! Blessings to you!
