Stop running and sit down: Learning to sit at tables where you "don’t belong"

I have had a few really interesting situations happen over the past several weeks that made me think harder about how I respond to people who disapprove of me and how I interact with people who are different. The fact is that God has allowed me to sit at every one of these tables to grow -- and be refined -- in the way that I represent Him.

What "table" has God put you at where there are differences, difficulties, rejection, and insecurities, as well as many opportunities to persevere, endure, overcome, reconcile, and experience God?

Is it time to stop running and just sit down?

**Something I did not say in the video that I should have is that the people in the class were all so wonderful. The problem was my insecurities! Satan wants to isolate us in any way he can! The Holy Spirit is so faithful in reminding us that it's not just those in desperate situations that we need to love.

"Shake up the ground of all my tradition

Break down the world of all my religion

Your way is better

I will make room for You

To do whatever You want to

Here is where I lay it down

You are all I'm chasing now

This is my surrender"

HEALTHY COMFORT FOOD...

I'm always trying to be cautious about how much I actually use food as comfort. Sometimes though, a nice, hot cup of tea and healthy sweet treat along with even sweeter worship music is just what we need to sit and think about God and what He is doing. If you are looking for something that is good for the heart in every way, these oatmeal banana bars are just what you need!! Follow this link https://pin.it/5DaZNColo
