dont try to figure god out

sometimes when god tells me something and sometimes he has to say things a hundred times because i got to know that i know that he said it, its that authority thing with me. the hardest teaching i ever heard was when pastor joe taught the john bevere teaching on submitting to authority, oh how i hated that teaching. i think when you are abused as a child by someone in authority over you, you grow up with a self defense mechanism. no one could ever say to me susan this table is black when i know darn well it is brown. but i will say i learned alot thru that teaching and the most important thing that was when we submit to the authority god has placed in our lives we are submitting to god. because of my backgroungd god has been extremely patient with me, teaching me i could trust him and his way of doing things, so now i dont have a problem with submitting because i know i am submitting to god, doesnt mean i have to alwaysi agree but i do have to tread carefully with my disagreeing. i just say god did you see that? and of course he did, and i would never never confront it unless i truly heard god. be very careful when you stand up to one of gods chosen. well anyways what im trying to say is i wont always be able to have all the answers to why god says to do certain things i cant understand. he is god and without faith it is impossible to please him. but i do know i have to obey. obedience is better than sacrifice. sometimes sacrifice is easier.
