It’s interesting that when I stop and talk to God about all that’s going on… then shut up… He begins to show me that He’s kept me all along.
The past two weeks were difficult. Not unbearable, but difficult. I repeatedly ask Daddy to give me strength and help me complete this assignment so I can move on. I know there is a chance that He might need me to stay, but that hasn’t been revealed to me yet. In the midst of this, I was elevated in several areas. I worked very hard this weekend, but I was doing something that I loved. I have a service business… MUA… service is my life. It not only brought extra funds, but it allowed me to be instrumental in two ladies’ joyous occasions. You can’t know how that makes me feel. It’s amazing. To see that you’ve contributed to a blessing for someone. While leaving the last wedding reception for the evening, and running into people who remembered me before I remembered them, I got notification that a friend of mine had finally published her first magazine. The work that God gave her was now up for public display. Even more special, she’d asked me months ago to be a feature in the magazine. So my first magazine feature was a part of her premier project. Talk about blessings! EVEN MORE SPECIAL THAN THAT: I got to give honor to God and three key mentors in my life.
I am full of joy right now. Not because everything is great on all areas (though we speak this year lack will be a figment of my imagination not my present reality), but because God is blessing me in-spite of what it looks like. (or feels like)
If you TRUST Him. . . If you BELIEVE in Him. . .If you SUBMIT to Him… You’ll have a testimony too!
