Release Your Vision



Habakkuk 2:2 says this - And the LORD answered me, and said, Write the vision, and make it plain upon tables that he my run that readith it. 

Habakkuk complained to God about the evil and injustice. God basically told him to wait patiently, for it will surely take place. It is not easy to be patient but it does help to remember that God has everything in order and in His perfect timing the vision will be made manifest.

Our lives are not our own. We are all connected to God because He created us. Each action or non action. Each word said or not said. Each move we make is being recorded and for this reason, we must be very careful of our steps. Every step we take in this life will either take us up to the next level or on a crash course downward into a pit, a dark pit. To build a building, you need a blue print. Without a blue print you just have an idea. To see the possibility we must plan and without a plan, we only have a thought. The scriptures are our blueprint to building the kingdom of God.

Bakers have recepies. Builders have tools and materials. Plants need dirt and water to grow and so does your soul. Feed on Gods word.  Your soul can not grow without His vision, without His action or without His purpose.  Patience. Wisdom is key and if wise choices are not made, not only do you suffer, those connected to you suffer as well.

I say to you write your vision, submit it to God and wait. His silence is not a denial. Get wisdom by seeking Gods word over your life. Get understanding and be the light that God has called you to be. Pray. Prayer is your embelical cord to living water. With this water you will never thirst. Remember nothing happens by chance, it is His plan. You can either go your own way and fail or trust God and win. Trusting God and having faith is hard but, we are assured that all good things come to those who wait. Psalm 27:13-14 says this - Yet I am confident that I will see the Lord's goodness while I am here in the land of the living.  Wait patiently for the Lord. Be brave and courageous. Yes, wait patiently for the Lord. 

So don't rush, don't be so wise that you think you have it all together. Its not you who does the good work, it is God who does the good work in you.  Praise Him in advance.

    Great word sis! Patience is something we all struggle with. For without it, we run the risk of getting out of His timing and His will. Having a vision for our personal lives is so important. The Bible teaches us that the people perish(cast off restraint), because they don't have a vision. God puts guidelines and boundaries in our lives for OUR benefit. Thanks so much for sharing and thanks for visiting...have a blessed week!

Celebration Of Life

Looking back over my life I can honestly say I did good shoot, I did better than good. Loosing my mother at 16 and me being a teenage mother I didn't crumble, crash and burn. Oh I did a zig when I should have made that zag. I believed too many lies and did not pay attention to the sirens warning me to run for the hills. I have made plenty of mistakes and many I wish I could go back and reverse, but God knew the plans he had for me because His word says that our steps are ordered. I have learned a lot about the psychological makeup of people including myself and that is why nothing surprises me anymore. I am not easily tricked up even though I may act like I don't see it, I do. I expect nothing and appreciate everything. Though I may be different, I celebrate my different because it and God has saved my life.  Bad choices and learned lessons. At 52 there are things that no longer matter as they did when I was young and impressionable. Looking back, all I can say is tha...

I Won't Complain

After a few work days of buses not showing up for their scheduled stops, me getting home close to 2 hours later than normal,  and no good sleep I'm reminded still, how good God is. Even the periodic snaps of depression and anxiety haven't caused me to forget how good God is. The key is encouraging myself because all storms pass. It amazes me to see so many people unaware of the true effects of mental illness. They tell you, get over it. They are the ones who have no debilitating physical or educational knowledge of the struggles. They don't understand the fight everyday to remain in a visual normal state of mind with tending to the tasks requiring your presence. They can't understand why you cry for no apparent reason. Unaware that some wish to lay down at any given time to sleep hoping to never awake again. Unaware that at any moment a fuse can blow in ones mind and all hell can be unleashed. Unaware that they may see beauty or bronze, while a depressive is seeing...

Stop Hiding Your Flaws part 2

In my last post, I talked about our flaws and why we shouldn't hide them. When I say flaw, I do not mean to insinuate worthlessness. No, I am pointing out that what others may see as a flaw, God created as a masterpiece, unique and particular. Yes, everything about you is unique and that is why I express the importance of not hiding. The definition of a flaw: a mark, fault, or other imperfection that mars a substance or object. Our lives are filled with many flaws. Unable to give birth,  unable to read or write, unable to drive a motor vehicle.  Deeper flaws of the physical and emotional are disfigurement,  physical disability,  missing limbs., mental illness.  These are all unique. Why do I say unique?  Because each of the above mentioned is an open door to revealing much more than the flaw itself. It is an opportunity to share and enlighten someone who needs to hear your story and see the winner before them. Courageous. Not defeated or defective...
