Very Briefly...Holding On Not To What It Looks Like...

Late Sunday evening I was in my little moment where I was thinking and I found myself in the moment where I wanted to just talk it out. So, briefle I mentioned to my mom "if God promised he was going to do something right, then that's it, its going to happen. But what if it completely does not look like it, I mean even if there was a little sign of something perhaps it would ease the waiting".


Before I go on to give u the brief words that she mentioned to me, can I just tell you that I already knew exactly what she was going to say simply because when I was talking it out I felt that the holy spirit was ministering to me by reminding me of the scriptures. Sometimes you just have to talk it out...it really does help.


So what did mom say, well she went on to say "yes I have had that experience and still to this day and so what do you do in the mist of waiting and not seeing anything, you keep on holding on to the promise for faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen (hebrew 11:1) You just have to trust that in the mist of your waiting God is working on your character so just be patient and continue to hold on".


Of course I was a bit more encouraged. I just think that I am the type of person that you can say here this is A B C D be creative with it I tend to get a little anxious as to what's next. So I haven't mastered it yet, but I'm still learning that its a learning process and that its ok to seat at the table with a pen and a blank piece of paper and you have nothing to write but rather you wait patiently for the Father to reveal what it is that he will have you to do at that moment. Because in the end, his plans are always better, more detailed and elaborate of our own.


So let us not be anxious for anything but in all things make our request known to God through prayer.

Have a blessed one and continue to be a blessings!!!
