Small still voice…

This is a visual for what my last few days have been…. It is so easy to get discouraged, upset, feel like giving up… but, but God!!!

When the baking dish went crashing to the ground all I could hear was “your breakthrough is coming”. Still frustrated I then heard “daughter, you have been in the fire, you have been baking…smoldering for some time. That season is about to end” … Oh Father yes!!! I hear you and I believe, I come into agreement Lord! Resting in your promises Father…

Then the coffee mugs went crashing to the ground. Like really? I just drove this set of dishes from Ohio and they all made it safely and then … crash. That has been how I have felt for the last 2 weeks since I’ve been back. Broken, all over the place, breaking off pieces of myself to do what needs to be done… perfect depiction. Scattered, shattered and never to be the same again… it’s in the trials we grow.

The skewers I just had to laugh, picking up sticks… the bruise well those who really know me … y’all know.

See right before I left for Ohio my renter moved out. I was torn between staying and getting a renter and being where I was asked to be, I made a promise. So I left. The first time I’ve been gone and there wasn’t someone here. I got home the grass was to my knees (miscommunication on my part). I have wonderful neighbors that kept an eye on things and I am grateful. God has not answered my prayers for a renter. Some have suggested I should Airbnb the room which I have always wanted to do yet I haven’t gotten confirmation. I know God has a plan and He is stretching me. Faith in the unseen. So I pray and wait…

Even in all of this I am blessed! I woke up today, got out of bed pain free (my version of pain free). I have water, electric, food and God answered my prayers HUGE for the tires I had to replace… God is good! Breakthrough IS coming!!! Claiming in His Holy name!!

My reason for sharing is it is easy to get overwhelmed, to be depressed and just throw our hands in the air yet that is not who we were created to be. We are created in His image. We choose how our days go or how we react to “distractions, unplanned events”. Look up and ask for a word, a sign and see what He reveals to you. Everything is a season… find joy even in the difficult unpredicted times. He is right beside us…
