Come and sit with me my dear...

My church pastor prayed for my birthday last night after church service. He prayed that in my new year God's heart will br mine, what He sees I see, what He hears I hear, what He speaks I speak. That was my exact prayer (through my fasting last year. I guess it is true about the father (Spiritual father in this case) knowing what is the desire of their child) Anyways, then God spoke through Him. My Pastor said: I see you running all the time and God wants you to stop and rest in Him. He wants you to stop your activities and reflect on His word. He wants you to build your relationship with Him. Spend more time with Him. Delve more into Him. Because God says He is ready to show you His visions if you seek Him. This year is important for you that's why don't waste time and truly seek Him.

After the prayer my Pastor just confirmed with me about what God wants from me. He says God wants me to stop from my busy activities and just sit with Him and ponder His word and ways. The keyword being 'ponder.' For when I do that God will show His visiobns to me!!! How exciting!!! God wants me to be with Him more!! I'm real excited!!!

I believe that even before God speaks to  us through people around us like our Pastors He has already spoken to us! Our Pastors only confirm it. I know that God has asked me to slow down and last night was a confirmation.

But by slowing down does that mean letting go of my activity? Which one? Uni, work, ministry? Uni cannot be altered. Work I am cutting down my hours. Ministry? Possibly? But I love my ministry! I would love to teach all the time and it's good for me. But as I say this I remember; we have to cut off the good things (good according to us) just so we can get the BEST things from God!! 

So I'm not 100% sure as to what activity I have to let go just so I can focus more on Him. I perhaps have to consult my leaders and even my Pastor again. But foremost is to pray and seek His directive.

So God I ask you now how shall I slow down??!!
