One Step @ A Time

*EMMM EMMM this isn't my typical blog. This is just me thinking.*

"Him : So what would it take for you to submit Shan? Me : A lot of time commitment and trust."

Ive been having dreams lately about the next steps I have to take in my walk with Christ. It all seems so exciting and fascinating. Its mind blowing to know God visits me every night with a story for me to live out in the morning. But lately I have been living in the past. I wake up to a new day just to have the mindset of yesterday. Its tough. But I adapt quickly in most situations. Now I'm just use to it. Some days I don't even notice it. Its dangerous. And I'm here all the time. Waiting on something I should be doing. I can wait on healing all day long but the scriptures declare that if I have faith I am healed. Jesus tells the woman with the blood issue to go she is healed. Not go and you will be healed. At this point I should be on top of the is and not the will be. You can miss out on a whole lot waiting on the will be. So I'm waiting still. It takes a whole lot more than it should to move.

I can say that I love God with everything I have. He is more than patient with me. Today I stopped talking and He spoke to me. He told me where my healing was. In 5 short words He answered every single prayer I spoke. It amazed me. I had to stop what I was doing and meditate on it. So I sat there almost star struck in a daze. I started to think back on what Ive been praying and blogging and writing. In the words of my amazing man of God He will never send you to a head doctor when you have a heart issue. Convenient word play that matched my situation perfectly.

Grandparents represent great wisdom. My grandmother has a head full of beautiful gray hair. I believe that each strand represents a piece of wisdom that God has blessed her with along her journey here on earth. She tells me to accept it. She tells me I need this and its sooo good for me. She tells me its important that I receive this now and not later. Then I looked at her and I woke up. Its 7:30 am and its storming so bad outside I'm jumping in the bed. This has been on my mind and in my heart. All of me is crying and screaming for a change.

Sometimes I wish I didn't have free will. That I just did it right then and their. But the freedom of choice keeps urging me to turn left. So I put the blinker on and whip the wheel. But that's not what He made me for. He made a person not a robot. His intention was to lead and guide me by faith. I have got to move to another place. I feel the pressure building and either I'm about to explode or somebody is about to let me have it. And that's something I never want to experience again. I remember when I had my way. I had zero control over myself.

Next Stop: U Turn

"The second it seems like everything is falling apart run to God who can put better things together. " - Sincerely.Shanae [my tumblr] One of the best things about BMT is airmen's time in the day room. Its the one chance you get to be free of everything around you. Its where my hope joy and strength came from. I had time to push myself into God. To invade His space like never before. All the letters I received were answered prayer. I have connected with a couple of my flight mates via FB. I see how they respond to each other almost like sisters. The i miss yous and the remember the time whens remind me that I never developed a solid relationship with any of them. I spent a lot of time by myself in my own little corner praying to God. We were inseparable. I talked to Him day and night. In good times and bad times. He became my family. He was my mother father sister brother aunt uncle grandma grandpa etc. He listened to my pain on bad days. He set my joy on fire on my good d...

He Gave

And he gave me hands. Hands to write the vision and make it plain. Hands to wipe every tear as He counted the blessings they would bring. He gave me feet. Feet to walk in the path he set before me. To run this race and endure all that comes my way. To jump over and walk through the valley of the shadow of death. He gave me a mouth. To shout the praises of a living king. To worship the glory of the holy lamb. To move the mountains to new places. To conquer the spirit of silence. He gave me life. Became who I am so I could be who he is. Laid down so I could stand firm. Cried out so I could dream big. Stepped down so I could be set free. Broke chains so I could serve him. Passed down the letter and canceled it through grace. He gave me love. Love to overcome breakthrough. To nurture bring life and survive. To rebuke loneliness inspire and grow. My King My Saviour My Redeemer who is patient and kind. Keeps no records of my wrongs wont delight in my evil ways protects trusts and...

Day 2 - The Lock

Psalm 42: 1-4 & 7-8 As the deer pants for streams of water so my soul pants or you, O God.My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When can I go and meet with God? My tears have been my food day and night,while men say to me all day long where is your God?These things I remember as I pour out my soul:how i use to go with the multitude leading the procession of the house of God, with shouts of joy and thanksgiving among the festive throng. Deep calls to deep in the roar of your waterfalls all your waves and breakers have swept over me. By day the lord directs his love at night his song is with me a prayer to the God of my life. I'm almost speechless once again. Ive read this one psalm a thousand times, okay maybe a hundred but who's counting anyway. Ive been meditating on this one word all day and some where in this psalm is the question I'm looking for. Actually is right there in verse 2 part b. Last night the lord whispered one word to me. Now as I type this i real...
