Knowing God's will.

I'm headed to bed last night and really feeling the crunch as the last few hundred dollars are disappearing out of my check book.  I still need a job and the fantastic interviews I had Friday are a distant memory.  Becoming more distant as the days go by and I hear nothing from them.

As I climb into my bed and begin to pray about no work the Holy Spirit begins to nudge via the chorus of and old hymn played in that great jukebox in my mind.  

Is your all on the altar of sacrifice laid?
Your heart does the Spirit control?
You can only be blessed,
And have peace and sweet rest,
As you yield Him your body and soul.

As I lay there in bed, the answer is "No."  I'm still holding back.  Dear God please increase my faith so that I want to let go of the things I now cling.

It took me a while but I found this YouTube video and it's the closest to the version I grew up singing.  Enjoy.

Where do I go from here?

For almost 3 years now, I've been blogging my Bible study.  I've blogged all the NT except the four gospels and the book of Revelation.  Not sure what my next step is or book or if this blog has run it's course in my life and served it's purpose.

I may be sporadic in how often I post as I seek what God wants.
