I was watching the movie Facing the Giants and my favorite scene is when one of the teachers at the school comes to the football coach and tells him this parable:
"Two farmers desperately needed rain for their fields, and both prayed for it. But only one prepared his fields to receive it. Which one do you think expected God to send rain? Which one are you?"
I love it because it just shows me how beautiful the body of Christ can be when He is willing to be used by God.
But, ask yourself this question: how often do i hear from God? If I do, how often have I been willing to do or say whatever you think God is telling you to? Do I prepare myself to hear from Him?
What is God saying to you today?
A wife. a mother. A pastor's wife. Above all, a Christ follower.
