My sheep knows my voice

[Jacqueline]

I would like to explain my question. I've been working at my job now for over an

year. Before coming to BC my life was up side down. I'd become someone I didn't know anymore and I hated the person I saw staring back at me in the mirrow. I was doing things that was completely opposite of who I am. I was told over and over again that I talked like a sailor. I'd had enough. I'd come to what I thought was the end of the road and yet now I know it was only the beginning. Anyway a friend started his own company and told me if I wanted a job it was mine and I took it.

When I left Compact I promised God that the first thing I would do is clean up my vocabulary. For a few months I even surprised my self at the change in the words I allowed to escape from my mouth. I bit my tongue so many times that I'm surprised that my tongue is still in one piece. One morning I was sitting behind my desk talking to a co-worker when another co-worker came up to me and just started yelling at me. At first I was to surprise by her action to even say a word, but as she continued to attack me for no reason I found my self getting more upset as the seconds went by. The fact that she did it in front of other people really pissed me off. Suddenly I heard my self yelling back at her with words I promised God I wouldn't use again. I cursed her out relasping right back into the person I never thought I could be.

This happen in the early morning, by five o'clock I was still pissed off at her.

I remember leaving work and walking to the bus stop mumbling to my self something like how dare she? Who do she think she is? Out of no where I heard... I didn't feel it, but heard this voice in my head. I was so surprised that I missed a step and almost fell. It wasn't a loud voice infact it was almost a whisper. Apologize!!!! One word. That's all he said. The only thing I could say was okay. The voice itself has faded which means that I couldn't even if I wanted to begin to describe what it sounded like, but what remains with me every single day is the authority behind the one single word.

The next day I was still pissed and even though I thought I was right, because she attacked me for no reason and I will admit I waited until the end of the day, but I did apologize to her. Her reaction was exactly what I expected as if I was the one who attacked her and yes I should apologize. What surprised me was my reaction to her reaction. All the anger I felt toward her just left me. I don't know if I can explain this right, but one moment I was pissed ready to fight and the next I was leaving work with a smile on my face. (weird) I've heard him three other times after that. Two more regarding work and one about my church. I have no idea why he choose to speak to me I'm just so thankful.:dove

God Bless

I used to cuss alot! When I was born again, God changed me. I didn't (don't) cuss, nor did I even think the words. However, Satan did try to "attack" my mind by putting those words in it and anytime they enter, I pray for God to remove them. I would even have dreams I was cussing and I'd wake up repenting. Satan really irritates me like that- he's such a conniving sneak! As my wise, older sister has told me- don't get mad at the person- it's the devil doing it!

I have no idea why he choose to speak to me I'm just so thankful.

Because you are his child! That's why he spoke to you. Because he loves you and he knew you needed his guidance.

How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! I John 3:1

I've heard the voice of God in my head on a few occasions, not very many, but I know when it's him. Sometimes it freaks me out, sometimes I don't understand it, but when I do what he says, it always works out for the best.

You are his child Jacqueline and he spoke to you because he isn't done with you yet. He spoke to you because you are worth speaking to!
