Confession is good for the soul...continued.....

To read the entire "Confession is good for the soul", you can click on the link, or just look at the post below this one.
I had something I wanted to add....a God-thing....an "it's not odd, it's God" moment I had this morning!!!!
You know how as a child of God....He gives us that "uh-oh" feeling? Like when you say, or do, something you immediately get that feeling inside, sorta like a lump in your chest....that you should have kept your mouth shut...or your hands off?!?!?
Well....almost always I write my post one evening for the next day, and set it to post at 12:01 AM, the morning of the next day.
So..."Confession is good for the soul" was no exception.
I woke up at 3:00 this morning with a terrible headache (I get migraines and often they seem to come in the night and wake me up)....but as soon as I woke up, here are the two thoughts I had...okay 3....first of all, it was how bad my head hurt....secondly, I wondered if my friend, Dawn, was feeling any better because she got sick at work yesterday....and thirdly....God gave me an uh-oh feeling about something I had written on my blog. So....I immediately came to the computer...and...guess what????? My post had not published!!!! I even checked the date and time and it was right...but it did not publish!!! Now, ladies (and gents, if any are reading)....that's a God-thing. I feel He wanted me to write that post...but there was a part He didn't want me to say. Don't get me wrong...it was nothing "bad"....but it had to do with part of what I quoted from Beth Moore:

"I'm not talking about making shocking confessions that make us feel better but devastate someone else."
It was nothing devastating.....but....it was something God convicted me of saying.
Plus...I also received an e-mail from Dawn that she had sent about an hour before I woke up....that she is sicker than she's ever been with a terrible stomach virus....so please keep this precious lady in your prayers today. She's a sweet Christian lady and she knows that prayer works!!!
So....that's that about that....except to say..."AIN'T GOD GOOD"?!!?!? And...He's still speaking to me....in His still small voice....by giving me "uh-oh" feelings!!!
Thank you, Dear Savior!!!
(p.s.....this is another thing I've learned from this Beth Moore study...and no I'm not on her payroll....that if we wake up in the middle of the night, not to always think it's because we just can't sleep for whatever reason....think about it...God might be speaking to us...or, He might just be letting us know it's okay to loose a little sleep....spending the time with Him!!!)
In His Most Precious Love....and with mine!!!
