And it worked.

o·be·di·ent

ōˈbēdēənt/

adjective

adjective: obedient

1. 1.

   complying or willing to comply with orders or requests; submissive to another's will.

   "she was totally obedient to him"

   compliant, acquiescent, tractable, amenable;

   antonyms:

   disobedient, rebellious

Obedience isn't my strength,
{in fact it is a great weakness!}
however my life's testimony

attests to when I have been obedient,
blessings abound.

Believe me when I say: I have nearly the same number

of testimonies where I have felt that I was obedient - 

and there haven't been blessings in ways
that I had hoped, expected or desired.

bless·ing

ˈblesiNG/

noun

   God's favor and protection.

   synonyms:

   • a prayer asking for God's favor and protection.

     
     

I have found that the blessings come when

the attitude of my heart is full of faithful, childlike wonder...

As opposed to the "look what I did" action.

This blog plans on being a reflection of

much deeper and more meaningful relationship with

The Lord, my family and thus myself.
