Day 21...Grateful for the Holy Spirit's Conviction...

I'll admit I definitely didn't like the conviction at first! But after the fact...when we listen to the Holy Spirit...there is no guilt, no worrying, and no anxiety. Only peace.

Now, the conviction today wasn't that big of a deal (at least that's what I thought at first). I had wanted to go to a different class than I had signed up for...one that I knew we aren't supposed to go to. It's a beginner class and once we do the regular class we can't go to the beginner. However, my schedule is pretty crazy right now (not really busy, but awkward times of things each night) so I'm having trouble getting to the regular classes. I had asked the teacher of the beginner class that would fit into my schedule and she ok'd it. So...I was going to go. But the Holy Spirit had a different idea...

At the end of my class tonight, I asked Stevie if it was okay. She said no. She couldn't make exceptions and so the answer would always be no. Hmm...well...I didn't like the answer...I kept thinking of the money I had spent, how I wasn't really going to get my money's worth...all the negative.

However, once I got home and started thinking about my day and what big thing stood out to be grateful for...I'd have to say, the peace of knowing that I ultimately did the right thing (however big or small) by listening to that little voice inside (aka the Holy Spirit)...is something to be grateful for.

I know I've been slacking on pictures.
I'll add some from the weekend at home once I get them from my family (there were enough cameras that I didn't take mine out). 
Can't really decide what to post for the Holy Spirit...will just wait until tomorrow for a pic!
