Dot d i's Cross d t's
We do not have to go over my last post to know what this post will be about.....
**Wide Smile**
Donnie MCclurkin sang ''we fall down and we get up, a saint is a sinner who falls down and gets up''
The word of God tells us a righteous man falls down 7 times and 7 time he rises again..Proverbs24:16.......as in the dude does not stay in that spot wallowing in a pity party, he moves on, dusts his body, cleans up and he's all fresh and clean moving on.
Okay so after all my scanty faith, lack of patience..I finally see the picture in reality like I saw in my vision and in the midst of me praising God for his faithfulness (yet God proves himself faithful) am like...babe you messed up O! I feel like a child who is whining; trying to reach the biscuit or candy in her dads hand, knowing her dad had got the biscuit or candy just for her and would eventually give her....I feel very bush about my scanty faith....and yet God still remains faithful. The testimony is still cooking up..the first parts done..and God is perfecting it..like he is crossing the T's and dotting the I's ...winks**
After this experience I understand process. I needed to learn patience, likewise if God did something he did it because he is God, every other reason is secondary..like what we do or do not do; don't mean nothing.
God takes us out of our comfort zones to shape us; a place where we are not used to, a process we have never being in.
There's something about comfort zones, they make you get accustomed to some process and patterns, if we are not careful we try to judge God by such patterns, telling ourselves he performs in a certain order.....our walk with God is not just for ourselves and for this world only...God is preparing us, shaping us for and towards perfection, not just to show the people around that we are his masterpiece but also for eternity.
Get out of that comfort zone...
Something I also learnt is that amidst all of our desires, wants, needs, we are made for God's glory and for service.....there's just something about service(pure service...nothing attached..) it humbles..cant explain..but am at a friends wedding doing her make up and I feel privilege to be doing it, I feel humbled to be used by God for that purpose, and somewhere along the line I receive Grace for it.........Service has a multiplier effect...its some spiritual mathematics I cant explain..like you serve in this area..and a Grace and an anointing comes on you to do more.........and even when you are done you got the feeling that you've not done enough..
Service spans beyond activity its an intimacy that leads to devotion, something done out of love.........how we fail at this simple definition even in relationships.......so a dude sings all d “P-Square's -The Girl I wan marry or Timi Dakolo's -Would you be my Lover or Luther Vandross- Endless love” and the lady replies with Jodie's-Kuchi Kuchi or Mariah Carey-s version of endless love......and its all melody , good feeling and lip service.........just very few understand that to be in love means to Serve..Truth Undiluted **winks**
…So am learning to Serve not out of what I would get but out of Love for God and in my service I am trusting God to Dot the I's and Cross the T's
Happy May
