What might be viewed as encouragement to one may trample all over the toes of another. Amazing how the Word of God does this...where there is sin -the Lord stands on it. If something ruffles me...I should be questioning why...is it righteous indignation or flesh cringning from the light.
I love reading Spurgeon's morning and evening devotions on Blue Letter Bible, and as I was questioning myself today as far as how much I share on here of the exciting light the Lord gives...I was reaffirmed to continue to share how the Lord is working in my life. Whether it is interesting to someone or not -is of no regard...His truth "burns" within us sometimes and it can make others uncomfortable. That is ok, because it sure does happen to me, and I know to examine "why". So whether these types of posts are skipped over or read is of no importance to me...it is such a comfort to know it may reach SOMEONE. Like the song...MY LIFE GOES ON IN ENDLESS SONG how can I keep from singing. How can I keep from sharing? Finding hidden treasure is exciting to me and I love sharing my finds even if it is old news to some.
"From the hidden springs within let sweetly flowing rivulets of testimony flow forth, giving drink to every passerby"-Spurgeon
Thirsty anyone? :)

So good Heather! I agree! :)
Keep posting! I love to read them. Thanks
HI! I found your blog throgh Karen Smith. You are so encouraging to me. I have been a "christian" my entire life,well, works based christian that is. At any rate, it has been a year since God has miracously revealed his grace to us, and the true salvation. I love to hear how others are growing in the Lord. Thanks for the encouragement.
Sometimes, I feel the same way, do I share or do I not share? Does any care/or listen? Does it really matter? No, because like you said it just "burns" within you, you can't help it. Again, you are a great encouragement to me.
THanks, unknown friend.
