D.R.I.V.E. -Divine Encounter

What promptings have you heard or sensed from God this Week?

REACT OR ACT

This is something that I am trying to work on daily.  So this week something came up about this.  I had a choice to react or act.  I decided to act after praying a really long time.  I told the person that I had a disagreement with that I was sorry you are feeling that way. Then I walked away. I believe that God intervened because normally I would react. For me this question is teaching me to be more aware today.  I ‘m making a commitment to be more aware of what God wants me to do.

 

Love,

Debra
