Obey.

Oh God. What are you trying to teach me? I am desperate to know. I've searched and come to some conclusions, but I know there's more. It's been said that when you say something three times, one should listen. Well, you've done that. Three times in four days. What should I be getting from I Samuel 15? Are there things in my life that I perceive as good, that You have really told me to destroy? Because for me, they would mean harm? Do I make myself to be bigger than I am? Help me to look to You for direction. Not my own wisdom.
 "Has the Lord as much delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices
 As in Obeying the voice of the Lord? 
 Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice..."
Creator, I want to obey. I want to pursue You with my whole heart. I know I often look at the sacrifice, not how I get there. Help me to refocus. Please. It's not about what I can give to You, but about searching for your desires, even when it's hard. NOT focused on me, but YOU. Help me not to fear what others may think. To be easily swayed.
Even when it doesn't make sense help me to trust. Always.
"No good thing does He withhold from those who walk uprightly." ~Psalm 84:11b
The riches of Your love will always be enough, hannaH
