Slow, Steady and Ready
i'm not in a rush. i'm enjoying the slow but steady pace. people murmur about me and my life. only looking at the outside and not considering that when a seed is planted, before it ever sprouts out of the soil, the roots grow in the ground deep and takes time to establish the foundation but then suddenly, after the rain, what was sown begins to reap. did they truly doubt or did they hope-- the seed would never grow?
this is my refining and redefining season. he has expired the old and introducing the new. The Holy Spirit is teaching me maturity, patience, understanding, wisdom, faith, truth and LOVE. God has rewired me to acknowledge him in all my ways. to deny myself. to receive his correction and instruction. to pay attention and don't love foolish things that lead to foolish outcomes. what he's teaching me, he's teaching many. God called me years ago. i mean i had encounters and would run every time. i would avoid. act like it never happened. started to embrace escapism. delaying my own spiritual maturation because i didn't have any examples around me. i didn't have anybody to hold my hand and though deep down i desired the LORD, i disqualified myself because of the influence the devil had over my life; i believe that is when my passion for writing left me. i was in search of my true identity in the world only to find myself more lost than ever before. I grew tired of the maze the enemy had lured me into. Thinking I was going somewhere but every corner lead to nowhere but even what the enemy intended for me, God turned it for good. I always found myself being led back to him. he was trying to get my attention but i wasn't ready. but after all i've been through, i finally surrendered to My LORD and savior. Finally would receive him with my heart, mind and spirit. It was the best decision i ever made and MY HEART IS FIXED. i'm in love. So I say: Sorry it took me this long.
