  • THERE'S NO SKIPPING IT
    As I’ve been navigating this new space of uncomfortableness that God has me in, I’ve finally surrendered to the truth that there’s no skipping this part…
    Because to keep it real there were many days that I didn’t understand, or had thoughts of “If only this were different, or I’ll be okay when this happens..” but the truth of the matter is there’s no skipping your process that leads to your purpose. And who said you can’t be okay now? Who said you have to wait until things come together to have joy again?
    We as believers have to learn how to navigate growing pains without being finessed into the enemy's schemes and mind games. You can thrive in the wilderness and waiting season when you truly know and believe that the joy of the Lord is indeed your strength (Nehemiah 8:10). You can feel a release of pressure, stress, and worry when you slow down and choose to live in God’s reality and not your own daunting thoughts.
    There’s no skipping this part. There’s no speeding up a process that you didn’t make in the first place.
    All I can really say is let your guard down with God and let Him have His way. Constantly pray for eyes like His and a mind like His. You’re not alone, God is here and forever moving even when you feel stuck.
    Ephesians 3:20-21
    Now to Him who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us, 21 to Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.

    The opening verse of our passage is Matthew 7:1, “Do not judge so that you will not be judged.” (NASB). This passage is very popular! It is not unique to just one culture. Let me illustrate. There is a Japanese proverb which states, “Search seven times before you suspect anyone.” Confucius is quoted as saying, “It is not the failure of others to appreciate your abilities that should trouble you, but rather your failure to appreciate them.” The famous Rabbi Hillel of Jesus’ time said, “Judge not your friend until you have stood in his place.” There is an American Sioux proverb that says, “Before I judge my neighbor, let me walk a mile in his moccasins.” An Arabian proverb reads, “Examine what is said, not who speaks,” and Mother Teresa said, “If you judge people, you have not time to love them.” No one likes to be judged. We are all familiar with judgmental people. We are familiar with our own failings in judging people unfairly and harshly. Everyone judges others. It is like drinking water. We all do it.

  • Prayer of Wisdom

    “Get all the advice and instruction you can, so you will be wise the rest of your life. You can make many plans, but the LORD’s purpose will prevail.” Proverbs 19:20-21 (NLT)

    Lord, thank You for the people You have divinely placed in my life who speak holy truth, love and words of wisdom. Give me a heart of discernment to know when You are using someone to speak instruction into my heart and my circumstances, and give me the strength and courage to follow through with that advice, even when it’s hard. Fill me with peace in knowing that even if I take a wrong turn, Your purpose will prevail. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
