"And Samuel said, 'How can I go? If Saul hears it, he will kill me.' But the LORD said, 'Take a heifer with you, and say, "I have come to sacrifice to the LORD." ' "
I Samuel 16:2
Samuel was not required to publicly reveal all that God had spoken to him. I have found that sometimes it is best to do like Mary, who "kept all these things and pondered them in her heart" (Like 2:19). It is good to confide in trusted friends. But Tom, Dick, and Harry often do not appreciate nor understand things that God has spoken to me personally. At the least they do not share my passion, and at the worst they react negatively and discourage it. Some things are just between God and me, and I don't have to blab it around.
Today's Thought: We are not required to share everything that God has spoken to our hearts.
Have a "between God and you" day. Love you.
