In the midst of transition, I have felt Papa God carrying me over the threshold and into the new. Nothing else can explain the peace I have had in my heart and the strength I have maintained despite the dismantling of everything I had known the last almost 19 years of my life, but God. It has been in that time frame where I have learned how to let Jesus be my everything that I have needed and more.
It was in that time that I learned resilience and what Agape love really was and what it meant to choose to love others, and that love was not based on a feeling nor just by words but instead it was an act of service. It meant putting others over yourself. But what do you do when you spend years holding on to faith believing that someone and some things would change for the better, believing in the promise that God placed within your heart of restoration and healing, only for it to go the opposite direction. After giving grace upon grace God said enough was enough and it was time to release it and let it go. After spending time in prayer, crying out to Him on what I should do, He said don't look back or you will be like Lot's wife. I shared some of that in my previous blog. So here I am.
As I was walking my dog, I was able to capture the beautiful sunset. It was the first one out of many I know I would capture in this new season and where He had led me back to. He had brought me full circle, back to the place where it all began with Him. The place I first became His daughter. He led me back home. Little did I know this would be the place that God would begin to heal areas of myself that have long needed to be healed. It is in this place where I received the revelation that just like Saul was turned into Paul and Simon was turned into Peter He was giving me a new name just like He is giving many others in this season. I realized that God does keep His promises but sometimes they may not look the way we think they will look and we have to be willing to surrender that to Him. That despite what that looks like we can trust Him in it and through it and He will see that it comes to pass.
This blog post has been in my drafts for weeks. And I felt it was time to finally finish it and release it. I know this is where the crossing over begins and it is where yours does to and we can know as His child that we can trust Him in it as He walks us through it! Amen.
