Today was a day I could have gotten discouraged but instead took hope from the fact this will be a long journey, full of surprises. My tendency is to want to rush the process instead of taking this course at His pace.
Haven't you felt that way at times? You want the end result and in a hurry up fashion. I am learning to relax and wait on the Lord. I am confident in my spirit that my very life is being directed by Him.
So today was busy from a professional stand point. I was able to spend time in prayer and praise as I drove along and as I exercised at the gym. Home to make dinner, do the dishes and make some brownies. It is now time for my blog.
In reading today I was taking inventory of some really tough times as they came to my mind. There is so much and will be revealing how the Lord works through the mire of my life. I know that you may or may not see yourself in some of my 'broken' life. I will share with candor knowing that someone will be blessed beyond myself. Today is another day of praise in preparation for what is to come.
In Nehemiah's rebuilding project he set specific people in charge of specific areas to rebuild. They not only did the work but also guarded the rebuilding process from enemy invaders.
It's how I will have to do when the rebuilding begins in my life. You will be the same. We will have to guard against the enemy attempting to destroy the rebuild.
Lord I submit to you my waiting, postured as peaceful rest. As you enlighten me to areas that are 'broken' help me to learn in the process exactly what the kingdom purpose is for how to use the pieces of my life. Amen
My journey is continuing, like the turtle....slow and steady.
