Welcome

I would like to welcome you to my blog site. I pray that the words that God lays on my heart will minister to you in your day to day life. I hope this is a place you can come to when you just want to be encouraged or want to be challenged.

My name is Renetta Novak and this is a site filled with my thoughts, musings and whatever God lays on my heart.

For years I have seen people lose hope and walk away from God and from life only because they were running away from people. I have created this blog for people that are tired and just want to know God and who He truly is without all of the religion, laws and chains that weigh men/women down. I love God with all my heart and I think we all should seek Him for who He truly is, not what man says He is.

May God richly bless you as you seek Him.

God has a plan

Do you ever just get tired of it all? Trying to figure out just exactly why you were put here on this earth. Thinking one minute you know and the next you haven't got a clue. We as human beings are such a complex race on one side, and so simple on the other. I think that God sits up in heaven looking down on us at times and just scratches His head thinking, what were they thinking?

There are so many of us walking around each day and some know what they are here for but I think the majority are still trying to figure it out. The problem arises when we believe we have heard a word or a calling and then people that are closest to us try to make us believe differently. The sad thing is that you can have a whole slew of people behind you and most the time you only listen to the one that is saying no.

Well guess what, I have figured out one thing. What God has started in you He is well able to finish. God has a purpose for every one of our lives and it never surprises Him all the trials that we go through; as a matter of fact, most of the time He is allowing the trials in order to build character and strength in us. We have to find out who we are in Him and no matter what anyone else says or does, trust in what we have found. I believe that God spends most of our lives trying to get us to see a small part of what He sees in us. God knows that once we see what He sees that there will be nothing impossible for us. It's time for us to delve deep into the Word of God and figure out what He planned for us from the beginning and quit listening to man and what he thinks we are here for. Most of the time that we waste trying to figure out who we are could be better spent helping others and being used by God to touch someone's life. Yes, I am on my soap box but not at you, unless you are dealing with this as well, but at myself for the time that I have wasted.

I really had no idea what I was going to write when I sat down and as a matter of fact, I sat here and stared at the screen for quite a while. I do know that God has a plan for each of us and if we will work past the junk that has been thrown at us and on us over the years, we will be able to find the person that God wants to use.

My question for you is, are you ready? Are you ready to move out of the opinions of man and into the truth of God? Are you ready to stand up for yourself and God and be the person that He has called you to be?

My statement for you is this, you are an anointed child of God. God doesn't make junk and He didn't make you so that you could spend your life in confusion. God made you so that you could be used by Him to bless other's. God made you to be a blessing to your family, to your co-workers, to your friends and to your local community. God has a plan, and you're it! Are you ready?
