A woman with a 'Yes' in her spirit!

Wow, I am starting the online Bible Study, 'I Am so you don't have to be'(Lesson 1). I am a little behind the others but it really looks like a good study! I did not do a Bible Study this semester at church and I am finding myself hungry for one!

The question being asked is, Can you honestly describe yourself as a woman with a 'yes' in her spirit? I believe the answer to this question, for me, is YES! I feel like my heart leaps within me to scream yes to my Father God! I want to be his choice handmaiden! I want to be in the middle of what HE is doing! I long to be involved with what pleases Him! I have to say YES!

We are new to our home town. We moved from a place I was happy with and I could not figure out why God would move us. If I were to share details, you would quickly see we were so busy trying to confirm the confirmations, that God had to shove us out of BR. We love our new home and our church, but our former home/church fit us so well. I now see BR was our spiritual college. Now we are given the joy of walking out our faith in this new land and I see how God was ready for us to talk to Him now. He was ready for us to let go of our teachers perspective and seek Him and hear Him for ourselves. We were still leaning on our teachers and not standing on our own.

It is funny I started this lesson today. We were on our way home from the park this afternoon, and I saw something that reminded me of our first arriving in our new hometown. It reminded me how God showed us we could hear from Him ourselves! This was a transforming occurence! I remember feeling I was in a romance with God. I felt like He was pursuing me like never before and I could hear Him (not audible but through different personal methods)! This was so precious! I remember how giddy I would feel when I noticed Him reaching out to me during my day and was amazed at this new level! It is so precious! I don't know what all God has for my future or my calling but I HAVE to say yes when it comes time to choose!

The other questions:
I find anytime I participate in a small group, God finds a way to use my life experiences to be a light for someone. All it takes is for me to be willing to share my life!

I feel I am in an emotionally and spiritually healthy place. Some days are better than others! I do look for opportunities God has for me to help another. I am also learning to be quiet when others share now too. Sometimes they do not want your opinion, but a friend to listen!
