What One Week Can Do

Status: God's got my back!

So I don't know if my testimony for this past week means anything or if it's wishful thinking (or maybe I'm just not good at discernment/feeling the holy spirit) but I want to say that I think God made a good promise to me this week.

It was a trying week with the heat and babysitting a friend's really needy and loud dog and having issues with my ears and getting up super early for various reasons. But the last night I had the dog, I made a prayer to God and said to Him, "God I have listened to your Word, I have searched my heart to find out if what I've been asking you for comes from a place of selfishness or comes from a place of giving. I examined myself and I found that I wasn't asking with a right heart nor was I trusting You to know better. So with Your help I made some changes and decisions to correct that. Once again, I ask you for healing, only this time I ask for it so that I can become more Christ-like and to gain the ability to go far and serve others more."

Soon after that I felt something go through my body and it took all the tension out of my muscles, decreased my tinnitus (temporarily of course) and gave me a huge sense of peace. It felt like a promise made in love.

I don't know whether to trust my own senses but I will trust in God more and I know he has something good in store for me. I just have to wait for it.
