So, now when I say I've written a lengthy post, you will really believe I meant what I said lol!!! ( If you started to read or actually did read my humongous "epistle"the other day, you will know what I mean). . . . And I really hadn't finished what was on my heart . . . Can you believe, that this shy girl with so few words, had something to say that couldn't be said in a short post or even a long, long one!!! That is one of the "exceedingly abundantly above" numbers in action . . . Like I said, God really truly means what He says . . . And he really truly keeps his promises . . . So on to part two . . .
I'm beginning to find that I have often viewed God's promise of "exceedingly abundantly above" different than He has ... Thus, when that verse was before me, I felt kinda like I really didn't have much of a part in it . . . Have you ever felt this way before???
God's ways . . . So much higher . . . So true . . .
. . . As I started focusing on this search for the validity of this promise . . . Invariably, my heart reached higher . . . And opened up wider, each time I found His promise true!!!
Yes, God has even given physically "exceedingly abundantly above" at times . . . But most often my eyes are up there at eagle heights, soaring in his Grace . . . And the perspective makes a world of difference!!!
. . . A world apart from this one . . . I am part of a different kingdom . . . A heavenly one . . . Where my Father reigns in wisdom and might . . . And where my Father reaches down to LIFT me up . . . If only I had eyes (especially when I feel discouraged and tired of this battle) to see at ALL times that His will prevails . . . And His kingdom IS COMING!
My head knows that . . . My heart and soul are slow at times and I need that Father's arm to reach back and take my hand and pull me forward . . . He can . . . But He usually doesn't unless I ask . . . Unless I seek . . . And knock . . . What are you seeking for today???
