Honestly, I have felt like a devotee of my convictions. I have fallen into a pit of despair and even though I do these episodes most days, I am not walking out what I am saying. I have been doing my best to take each day at a time. Each step at a time. It is helpful to focus on today and If I keep doing that, the future will take care of itself. God has certainly been breaking me from the traditions that misrepresent Him and it feels...2022-10-3109 minThoughts to InspireThoughts to InspireInstant In Season #40April is wrapping up and I can feel the intensity. Oswald is bringing it and of course, it matches up with my circumstances. I love how God can work through us to touch countless people through books and other media. That is my hope for this podcast. I may not be as inspirational as I am in the season of my life but, I am still echoing Oswald's words with each episode and honestly sharing my life. Right now that is what I can do. God is good.  --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/b...2022-10-3007 minThoughts to InspireThoughts to InspireThe Warning Against Wantoning #39"Our work as His disciples is to disciple lives until they are wholly yielded to God. One life wholly devoted to God is of more value to God than one hundred lives simply awakened by His Spirit. As workers for God we must reproduce our own kind spiritually, and that will be God's witness to us as workers. God brings us to a standard of life by His grace, and we are responsible for reproducing that standard in others." --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/bill-williams4/support2022-10-2909 minThoughts to InspireThoughts to InspireThe Worship Of The Work #38This is my last week of working full-time at my Job. Next week I will officially begin this journey that God planted in me to work with Him. Oswald says that a lack of concentration on God when working will lead to the work on the neck which leads to being spent out and crushed. I do not want this to happen. I hear it all the time and It is at the forefront of my mind as I start this process. Money and recognition are not my aims. I want to please God and feed His sheep. 2022-10-2808 minThoughts to InspireThoughts to InspireThe Light That Fails #37What I hate is how I can be a hypocrite. I will say in this episode one thing to my wife and kids another thing. Jesus does not like hypocrites and I don't feel good when I take out my frustrations on my family.  I find myself displacing my frustrations with work and other stressors onto my wife and kids. I have been extremely tired of doing this. My family is being misled by me when I get stuck in this cycle.  The reason I mention this is because I do not want to be a...2022-10-2707 minThoughts to InspireThoughts to InspireNow Don't Hurt The Lord! #36Spend some time thinking about areas of your life that are un-simple. What stupid opinions do you have? Spend time in prayer with God and see him work. Let Him make His promises a reality in your life by letting go. Thanks for spending time on this longer episode. If you listen to this at any point in time I would appreciate the prayer. Jesus is the beginning and the end while remaining in the now. If I receive prayer for this point in my life 20 years from the date I published this, it still matters.  ...2022-10-2622 minThoughts to InspireThoughts to InspireCan A Saint Slander God? #35Seasons, where we are growing, can be difficult. Being stuck in "I CAN'T" is dangerous and holds us back. I have been inspired to document and share with my family my core words or phrases. To write down our family mission and declare what we will work towards as we approach the end of this year. November and December have historically been hard months for me. Thanksgiving is the anniversary of my brother's suicide. I need to be on guard. I will not let the enemy tempt me into hindering God's plan for my family and me...2022-10-2511 minThoughts to InspireThoughts to InspireIs It Not In The Least Likely? #34As I continued to reflect on today's devotional I was thinking... What is the least likely way the devil would take me out? I started to listen to Dad.Work podcast and he has on Fathers who are trying their best to serve their families. They all point out how so many dads out there are fallen comrades. They have great success in one or a few areas of their life but their kids and wife do not love them so they failed. I had a new client who one day woke up and his wife asked...2022-10-2309 minThoughts to InspireThoughts to InspireReadiness #33What tools help you grind through (with grace) the thought days and weeks?

Oswald is a thoughtful person and his work has been very impactful on my life. I encourage you to dive deep into yourself today to uncover things yet to be revealed.

The reason is, the things which Jesus reveals are unbearable until we enter into the moment when we are spiritually fit to endure the revelation. We can not back down when it is revealed to us because that would be to turn from God.

Some things are easier to give up, some things are unexpectedly gone, and some things seem to keep coming back up. For me, It is the loss of my voice and sense of reasoning in the light. I get clouded in my mind and my eyes won't see the good.  My kid's got a book called "Pete the Cat and His Magic Sunglasses" By Kimberly and James Dean.
