God is ever so faithful, always on
time and marvelous in His ways. Three
people poured into me this morning….it was random and they all said things that
uplifted, further encouraged and blessed my spirit. Now, this is not unlike God, He is always
there and has guided me through some very rough times. He’ll send a word through someone, a hug from
the Holy Spirit or just make me aware of His presence. However, the glory I find right now, in
today’s blessing, is that I woke feeling so very happy and overjoyed
already. At the beginning of the week He
opened a door for my family and last night blessed me to hear a sweet and
beautiful voice; and that right there was/is enough and has filled my heart
with joy!! But, He didn’t stop
there…He’s still continuing to fill me to overflow with His love, joy, grace,
and peace.
I’ve been feeling God pulling me
higher; to another level of spirituality, severing and ministry. I have no doubt that He is using this and
other things as my platform. Back in May I took my daughter to a grief seminar
to help her better understand and process the passing of her brother, admitting
that it was just as much for me and during it I heard God speak to me. Now, I have heard what He said a few other
times through other people, things I was reading and in my prayers, but hearing
it this time confirmed what I believed and resonated with my spirit. He told me to LIVE; one
step at a time, one day at a time, but just live. I can’t control everything or everyone
around me; trying to orchestrate and maneuver things with my good intentions, hopeful
thoughts and (if keeping it real) probably some selfish motivations too, but
instead I have to trust Him and control what I can knowing that He will take
care of the rest.
Since then, this is something I
have said to myself often; to remind me that God is in control and He wants me
to live so He can work in and through me.
My prayer today is that I will not allow fear of the unknown to stop me;
that I will not worry about how, who or even when, but instead trust him
without fail and allow my faith to grow.
