Lately (the last few weeks) I have been a little remis in my study plan. You see, I truly love to get up early and to spend time, just me and God…..in prayer and in study. Lately, as things began to pile up in my life, as situations that I had to struggle with came into my life, as the pressure mounted, I started to sleep in a little more and found myself falling away from what God told me to do….at this point in my life, it’s to study, not for knowledge, but for understanding. I realized this last week, and am happy to say that I am back on track. What’s funny is that when I picked back up where I left off a few weeks ago…..in James chapter 2, God was really talking to me……in conversation…….the words flowed from Him out of James and into my heart addressing so very much of what I have been struggling with lately. Thank you God, for your patience and love. I never cease to be amazed at Your wisdom and your unfailing love! I hope I always stay a child in this way. I never want to “grow up” and set out on my own. The times I have tried that, I have felt a-lone. It’s great to be a kid!

Jan your passion and desire to grow intimately with the Lord is an inspiration to all. God will bless your commitment to put Him first and remain “a child” in Him.
