I love that God gives gives us promises. He is not a liar. He will finish what He begins. I love that God whispers encouragements. This are no coincidences. I love that in retrospect we see that He was dropping us hints along the way. God is so good. He uses everything. For our good. For His glory.
I am keeping a journal this year. I will record what God has done. What God is doing. I am overwhelmed with excitement. This is no little girl's journal. It is full of life. Not just hope but hope fulfilled. God has begun a good work. It started way back. Last year was a year of stripping. This year is a year of change, of rebuilding. I plan to write it down. It will be a heritage for my children, lest we forget what the LORD has done. I am learning patience as I see the fruit ripening and the seasons changing. In the end it will be clear. The LORD that knows me is in charge and is bringing restoration. It is not all about balancing anymore. It is about letting go and leaning into Him. He hems me in before me and behind me. And He is good.
Loved this sweet, honest, raw reflection today. And a great reminder of just WHO our great God is and how He is always working in our lives. Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThanks:) There are some amazing things going on around here. Over the years we see God do big things in our lives but then the memories fade. I want to write it down this year so I never forget.
