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: Construction Zone

To fall flat on your face is to release who you use to be. To get back up is to become who you are. - HyQuality Between Romans 8: 28 and Galatians 6: 7 I have been building my understanding of everything that has happened. The people that have left. The relationships that have failed. The words I wish I had kept to myself. I have released the claims they had on my identity, demoting them to tools in the Potter's hands. He has kept me because I asked and yield. The blessing is not in a thing. But in the language attached to my name. Either He will reign forever or it will rain forever but I will not put my faith in both. I thank God for the place I am in. The breaking means more room for Him. A part of rebuilding is realizing that I lacked nothing from the beginning. Greater is He that is in me and in Him is all I need. This is not to starting over. This is to making better. Construction Zones There are two things the calm signifies. One is the peace of a new morning the othe...

Knock You Down

"Love (human affection) has put me through so much. Ive cried held on let go let God. Stayed. Thought about leaving. Threw in the towel went to go wash it. Prayed and fasted. Stopped moving moved too fast. Sometimes I need a break from love." - Shanithia That one little mini paragraph is exactly how I feel right about now. I'm sitting here trying to figure out how else to explain it but that's it. On more than one occasion a couple different people have told me I need to let these relationships go and be by myself for a while. I need to enjoy the world around me cause once I get married I'm going to wish I had enjoyed life a little more. I always laughed about. I'm still laughing about that actually. I enjoy my life most days. Cant say all days cause these past four days have been....lets just say I've had way way way way better days. I don't feel as if the world has anything for me except foolishness and more trouble than I'm already promised. And...

My Peace With Pain

"Go find your place of worship. Look into your pain and find your praise. Every low place in your life prepared you for your high place. And every tear you cried was water for the garden of your victory. And even though your in the valley victory comes through your adversity." - Marvin Sapp : Place of Worship Not advertising has its rewards. But also consequences. I feel like no matter the decision pain is a part of the process. Like at some point somebody was going to make me stare long and hard in the mirror. The confidence it takes to declare something you hardly desire to admit skipped over me until recently. I spent months praying for the lesson. Saying lord teach me. But I was not prepared for an experience. He is faithful to answer on the spot. So quick sometimes you're like whoa is this Him or me. Nevertheless He answered. Taking me back around to familiar places and situations. Digging up all the dirt I had so carefully catered to. Making sure it wasn't ove...
