Going Through


Walking on this journey is not an easy road.  There are rocks, bumps, knives and all kind of rodents.  But Glory to God, I don't have to carry a heavy Load.  He picks me up when I get weary and let's me know I'm not really the driver because he does the stirring.  He provides for my needs and sometimes it's in way in which one may not be pleased.  But I feel in my spirit that it is he.  I cry sometimes because of the evil I see.  Yet when I think about it I must thank God that I'm not blind and he's open my eyes so that I can see.

It hurts my heart to see some of the acts of men that reach out and destroy.  It may not be their intent, but because they are of this world.  They have nothing in me, yet they have many options.  Follow my lead or flee from me.  Because truly in deed.  The KING of Kings is who I aim to please.  The Omnipotent God who supplies my need.  He can choose how and whom ever he deems to show favor because he is who he is; The KING of Kings.

Sometimes it seems while on my way.  I have to get down in the dirt, while thanking God for the day.  Sometimes I feel exposed to the world.  My joy, my pain, my mistakes, my love.  Yet still I stand and I can't take in the opinions of man.  I run, I walk, I do all I can,  and another day I do this thing again.   I can see my growth and progress in him and that let's me know through him I'll win.  I can have joy in the midst because my God said it.  I can have peace because the Lord has me equipped.  I also know it's easy to forgot.  Forget that he's the one in charge and handling it.  So I stay in his Word and I know that all things work together for good, just as it should.

I've came across people who didn't seem to be walking on the same road as myself.  Observing the character and demeanor they possess.  I often felt they were there to disrupt my peace or interfere with my rest.  Only to see it's not about who or why they are.  It's about my position of growth and sometimes a need I had, in which God use all kind of folks.  So, as I changed my focus into his Word I realize his presence.  Though it may seem sore; it is an open door.  One I must go through in order to do what he has called me to do.

As we go through this life.  We must use that Word.  The Word we are in and the Word within us.  Knowing in order to move we must walk in faith and be able trust.  Trust not in man, but the God who can.  Who can take us through, provide our need and enable us to do what he has called us to do.

Glory to God and Bless the Lord!

If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, you shall ask what you will, and it shall be done unto you (John 15: 7).

Arise, get you to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon, and dwell there: behold, I have commanded a widow woman there to sustain you (1Kings 17:9).

But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us. We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not in despair; Persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed; Always bearing about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our body. For we which live are alway delivered unto death for Jesus' sake, that the life also of Jesus might be made manifest in our mortal flesh (2 Corinthians 4: 7-11).

You that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserves the souls of his saints; he delivers them out of the hand of the wicked (Psalms 97: 10).

Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light (Matthew 11: 28-30).
