Sometimes do you ever wonder why you stayed so long or why you
continue to allow yourself not to live in the space and peace that God
has for you. Do you ever get frustrated with the frustration of the
process. You want to be kind, you want to be gentle and many times you
want to go out of your way to help others to catch what they are
missing. At some point we need to trust God knows what he is doing and
that on the other side of the door we keep trying to open or figure out
why it is closed that there is a specific purpose of protection that God
is doing for us. Noah had never seen rain but when God told him to
build the ark because it was going to flood, which had never happened
before, there were no questions of why... he just obeyed because he
heard from God and believed. Abraham had waited his whole life for a son
and then when God asked him to sacrifice his son he just obeyed. In
both situations God showed up and protected. God saved Noah and his
family safety and security on the ark. And he also sent a lamb in the
bush for Abraham to sacrifice as an offering rather than his son. What
God is trying to do for each of us is get us to the point of clarity of
mind, body, soul and spirit so we can hear clearly what he is telling us
to do. We all have a mission and a passion that we have been created to
do but unless we stop the craziness from our lives and prepare
ourselves to trust and obey and listen then we will never been able to
experience all the promises that God has for us as individuals. If God
is in the blessing business why not you. You are his creation and he
intentionally loves you by sending Jesus to die for our sins & all
we have to do is be willing to claim it, declare it and walk in the
freedom of what Jesus wants for us. We don’t have to always understand
all the specifics of his plan but it is important to do what God has
told you to do. Not everyone’s going get it and that’s ok. Not
everyone’s going agree with it and that ok. Not everyone can travel
every road with you and that’s ok because many roads are meant to be
traveled alone because its way too important for you to miss out on the
blessing so that is why you must walk alone by faith and not by sight.
In life you will walk into some relationships, friendships and even
family relationships that have to come to an end because not everything
can be equally yoked on this side of heaven. Some people just drain too
much of your energy and are too negative to be a part of your life. It’s
ok to say goodbye and yet still keep a relationship with people by
praying for them. Our biggest mistakes sometimes is we try to make
seasonal people and situations life time cohabitants in our journey in
life. Not everyone can catch the vision. Not everyone can hear what God
has said to you. But when you know what God has said to you, stand on
his promise, trust his mission and keep moving. Don’t take it personal
remember people are broken too and sometimes their too afraid of their
own fear to acknowledge that and cooperate in a healthy co-existent
relationship with you. Stop having expectations of sinful humans and
just do your part by praying for them. You can only take being burnt so
many times. Remember its not giving up its changing plans in order to be
fully available and ready for whenever God says "Who Can I Send To Do
What I've Asked".... Don't worry you will survive.
#KeepItMoving
