My tears do NOT reflect defeat, doubt, distrust or disbelief! They do sometimes reflect that life is happening all around and in my humanity I feel helpless! I want to fix every situation and make every loved one feel better. I want to take away the pain, suffering and sorrow. I want everyone that I love to feel good, to feel better. But, as I so often preach and teach, particularly to women, we are not called to be all things to all people....that would the role of our Triune God! So, I have to stay out of Gods way and watch as so many people that I love deeply are experiencing death of spouse, parent, sibling and child and so many are facing serious health crises. For me, crying, is very cathartic. Im not one who can, nor wants, to keep toxic emotions bottled up inside. So, I cry all that stuff out! BUT DONT GET IT TWISTED....it is a season of heaviness, but, VICTORY is all around, no matter what my eyes see or my ears hear! Death has been defeated and healing is extended BY THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB!! So, I cry, but, I still BELIEVE! I cry, but, I continue to PRAY IN POWER I cry, but, I keep my FAITH ACTIVATED WITHOUT DOUBT I cry, but, I TRUST GOD IN EVERY SITUATION AND CIRCUMSTANCE! I cry, but, I keep PRESSING I cry, but, I keep STANDING FLAT-FOOTED ON THE WORD OF GOD! I cry, but, I EXPECT GOD TO SHOW UP AND SHOW OUT! I cry, but, I MINISTER! I cry, but, I GIVE I cry, but, I SERVE I cry, but, I WORK I cry, but I STUDY I cry, but I LAUGH I cry, but, I DANCE I crt, but, I FELLOWSHIP I cry, but, I REST I cry, but, I HAVE PEACE AND JOY I cry, but, I WALK IN VICTORY I cry, but, I WALK IN EXPECTATION THAT GOD WILL DO JUST WHAT HE SAYS I cry, but, I WALK IN ANTICIPATION OF WHAT SUPERNATURAL THING GOD WILL DO NEXT Gods Word ministers to me and His promises sustain me daily! I have history with Him and I KNOW His plans are not to harm us, but, to prosper us through this adventure called life! Ironically, in this season, God is sending my own sermons back to me to preach to myself :) ..... #surelyyouknow, #sincewearehere, #theweightofthewait, #nevertheless, #whatevermylot, #makeitdowhatitdobaby I might bend, my knees might buckle, my heart aches and I might cry a river before its all over. ! BUT, I WONT BREAK BECAUSE MY BACK IS STRAIGHT, MY SHOULDERS ARE SQUARED, IM IN FULL SPIRITUAL ARMOR, AND MY SPIRITUAL EYES ARE FIXED TOWARD THE HILL FROM WHENCE COMETH MY HELP! I am not strong on my own, but, GOD IS STRONG IN ME! GOD IS THE SOURCE OF MY STRENGTH!! HE IS THE STRENGTH OF MY LIFE! SO, I WILL BLESS HIM AT ALL TIME AND HIS PRAISES SHALL CONTINUALLY BE IN MY MOUTH! So, THANK YOU SAINTS FOR THE PRAYER COVERING! Keep praying in power and faith! I dont take it for granted that you think of me and pray for me. I thank God that I am loved and that I love! I have the wonderful gift from God of family love and my family is not just biological! Please know that I cover you and yours in loving and fervent prayer! This is a season....it has a beginning and an appointed end! Pray Gods strength in me for the journey! IT IS WELL! HALLELUJAH! AMEN!!
