Hello. It’s been a while since I updated my blog, hasn’t it? I’ve been in a little different kind of waiting time. It is the hardest that I know of, so I’ve been kinda waiting on God and for things to move up in my life. Waiting on and trusting God, it is a challenge sometimes, but it’s worth it. These are the times we get to learn a lot of things about ourselves and about the heart and integrity of God. Sometimes it doesn’t make sense to the world why God is doing things the way he is doing them. Sometimes I struggle because it doesn’t make sense to me, but that’s the beauty of God. He doesn’t have to make it make sense to me but it makes perfect sense to Him. Throughout the scripture we find God telling the people things that didn’t always make sense to them but they obeyed God and did it anyway. Later in their life they were able to see how it all came together, the Bible says in
Isaiah 55:8-9
“For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
and your ways are not My ways.”
This is the Lord’s declaration.
“For as heaven is higher than earth,
so My ways are higher than your ways,
and My thoughts than your thoughts.”
As humans we want control of our situation, so it can make sense to us but the ways of God are higher. When we don’t have control we can’t make decisions and that is hard for us as humans and let me say this it is hard for us as Christians too. For almost a year now I have been waiting on my paper work so I was not able to work, a couple of months back I got a letter approving me to work so I applied for job in a couple of places and I was waiting on God and soon a small door opened I got a seasonal job at OCC (Operation Christmas Child) with Samaritans Purse so now I’ve been able to breath a little bit slowly climb out of my situation, I am so happy and grateful to God for opening this door.
It’s interesting the journey that God takes you through, sometimes you love it sometimes you don’t. But you know what, God is in control and He knows what He is doing. You’ve got to learn to love the journey that God is taking you through.
The Bible says in
Proverbs 3:5-7
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
and do not rely on your own understanding;
think about Him in all your ways,
and He will guide you on the right paths.
Don’t consider yourself to be wise;
fear the Lord and turn away from evil.”
Learning to trust in God is important and not relying on your own understanding. It is easy for us to rely on what we know, we think we know it all and we think we know things better, In fact we don’t know it all. The more we humble and trust in God the more we will learn and grow in God. As I started to humble myself and trust in God, many new doors were beginning to open in my life. Am so happy that I got the Job at Samaritans purse and now God opened a door for a full time Job, I am working towards saving some money and getting ready to publish my book. A lot of people have been asking me for my testimony so I have been working on my testimony and trying to put it in a book format so people can read about my testimony and the miracles that God has done in my life. I know for sure people’s life will be challenged to believe in a God of miracles after reading my testimony.
This is a year of double blessing 2014 The Lord gave me
Psalms 65:11
“You crown the year with Your goodness;
Your ways overflow with plenty”.
The Lord said claim your blessings for this year so I am claiming my blessing I would like to encourage you to claim your blessings and receive them and walk in victory.
