Just reminder!
Good morning brothers and sisters. As I sit here thinking and talking to my Lord and Savior, He gently reminds me that He is still in control. The plans that He has for me is much more than I could ever imagine. But there are things that I have to let go. When He shuts the door, I can't keep standing at that door and knocking. When He cuts the branches off of the tree, I don't leave them there trying to figure out how to put them back. I burn them! I remove them. Those are pieces of me that do not belong with who Jesus wants me to be. He reminded me also, this world is not my home. This is not my destination. I have to look ahead. Then I opened my Bible and I turned to 1 John 2: 15-17. He reminds me you can know about these things but do not let these things overwhelm your heart. 15- Do not love the world or the things in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him. 16- For all that is in the world- the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life- is not of the Father but is of the world. 17- And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever. I have to let the things of this world that could keep me from being who Jesus knows I am pass away. And who am I? I am the daughter of the Most High! He is my Father! He is my Lord! He is my Savior! He is my friend! He is my Comforter! He is my Protection! He is sound words! He is my EVERYTHING! So today, let it go and BECOME! Become who Jesus knows you are! If the door is closed, walk away! The new door God has for you is so much better. Rise up child of God, rise up!
