When your question is answered so Direct "Denying God Is Not an Option"

  When stress takes a toll on you. So bad that you just close your eyes and want to cry. Well, my day was going bad and the chaos was intense in my home. I live by a lake and very rarely go there to think or anything else. Basically avoiding spending time with God in his Splendor. 

  Today, it was suggested that I take Buster "my dog" for a walk and spend time at the lake and see if I might enjoy it. So, I grab my phone which at the time did not seem as a bad idea. Music and Song of the Lord always help me think and pray in times of Stress. " Soothing the angry Beast" lol...
  I grab the dog leash and Buster was ready to go. Off on a walk we went and with me listening to music, Buster was hard to walk not wanting to stay by my side but pulling me as fast as he could to the lake.

 We arrived and as I sat on a single rock that seems to stand out....I listen to the music that is so dear to my heart. Nothing, it was like a void. After frustration and not understanding why my conversation to God seemed so bland and rehearsed. I turned off the phone and started walking Buster along the bank of the Lake. Then something amazing happened. I asked one simple question after a few minutes of calm and stillness.......A simple water logged stick caught my eye. Then a story and answer unfolded. As I walked a little bit further on a single twig was the most beautiful thing I had ever saw. My Answer. "HOPE" 

  Literally, the Word HOPE on a white painted and decorated clothes pin. At that point i begin to feel such joy and overwhelming enthusiasm...

  One Word in the middle of nowhere on one single twig. " HOPE"

  Hope: Is solid concrete evidence because it is grounded in the Word Of God. (Heb 6:18; Num 23:19)  So, if I would have just took time to be still and listen then, I would have heard the things that God was saying. Oh and that stick I found; is by my fireplace under the mantle. Symbolizing the different ways and paths that God leads us to Always Come to Him for Answers. 
   I think I found a new place to spend time with My Father. Oh and Buster too.
  May God Bless all of You and have a Great and Happy New Year.
