What's In Your Ark?

Here lately God has been trying to show me somethings that I wasn't fully aware of. I have been going around for weeks now seeing stuff that has to do with Noah's Ark. I thought that it was strange that all of a sudden I am seeing this stuff. I have been wanting to have a baby & I feel in my heart that God wants me to name him Noah. So I thought maybe these were signs that God is fixing to do something for me. But I waited on the Lord & He showed me the message He was trying to get across to me.
God was wanting me to look in my own "ark" to see what I was secretly hiding, not fully aware of it. So I made a list of things that could be in God's ark; love, kindness, forgiveness, peace, joy, happiness, & etc. Then I made a list of what was in my "ark"; kindess, love, joy, & then there was something brought to my attention. I had other things that shouldn't be there. The Lord showed me that I still had a temper that I needed to work on. I have some fears, and people that I need to forgive and other things.
When the Lord showed me this I felt bad. I felt as though I had let Him down. But He wasn't showing me these things to put me down. He was showing them to me to get closer to Him & to advance myself. To grow up in other words.
In the beginning I didn't look at it this way & I kind of acted like a little kid does when it is scolded by a parent. I pouted & cried but a few hours later I got over it. I realized that God is only looking out for my best interest & the bible says that the Lord chastises those whom He loves. It doesn't feel good at the moment you are being "scolded" by God. But those are defining moments in our lives. He shows us, if we will listen to Him, areas in our lives that we need to move up & improve in.
I am thankful that I have a God who loves me & has my best interst at heart. He is always there & is a constant friend. He has never turned His back on me & never will.
I want to do all that I can to please the Lord. I want Him to use me & if being scolded is going to get me closer to Him & will allow Him to use me in more areas then I am for whatever He wants.
