rawr. there’s just wayyy too many things that have been taking place this week la! where should I begin! haha!
-cell retreat
i came that morn with a spirit tht was distracted, disturbed and weighed down by the events of the previous day.
and all morn I fought a constant battle to suppress the brokeness that had set in. it escalated to an extent where I just broke down and did something really stupid! and I wanna thank god for that! cus in admitting that i really could not deal with the situation that affected me to such a great extent,as I cried out in desperation that I needed god’s guidance and the assurance that he understands, I was liberated from the chains of darkness. and all through the rest of the day every time I stand at his alter in worship, his spirit just continued to flow and I teared as he revealed his heart t me.
‘son, do not be dishearted, for i am above your circumstance, and in your brokeness I will bring restoration. i know your pain. and i want to build you up again.’
and god pointed out to me that all of this tied in with what terry shared in the morn about the heart of a father!
god allows us to be broken by our circumstances because it serves to reveal to us how weak we really are,it serves to remind us that when we are secure in his blessings it does not mean we can be complacent. it serves to point out that all this is happening so that you will learn t surrender your life to the cross for god has endured all of that on your behalf.
'son, ive been waiting for your return since the day you decided to step out of my house.'
the day i walked out of his courts, he has been waiting for my return! and he decided t let me walk out cus he knows this was something i needed t learn,this was something he could not force upon me,and in going through that tough time it reaped greater benefits that i would have ever known!
id also like to say a word of thanks to arthur,darren, and my spiritual dad lionel for standing with me,holding me in your arms and assuring me. :D
hahaha.
god i know that you will never fail me.
STORMcity!;
