Welcome Rain!
I could have well written your post. "If I worry, shall it change things?" This has been my way of life for quite awhile now. When we worry and fret all the time, we are not exercising our faith. And, we know it's impossible to please Him without it.
This is where His peace that surpasses...comes in for myself. Once released, we can breathe a big sigh of relief knowing these "impossible" things are in the hands on the God who makes all things possible. It can become almost exciting when arriving to that place where we can totally rest in Him and His provisions. He has been the best provider I have ever had ❤
I hope you will like the forum,
God bless!
Thank you. And may God bless you as well Nancy.
As I grow older it becomes easier to let go and let God, as they say. Before that was a slogan on a sticker, back when I was young and thought I had it all on the ball and the world in front of me. If only we were as wise as we were young it would have saved quite a lot of stress and heartache.
Now, as the days seem to fly by whereas before it seemed to take forever for a year to pass, I've started to also notice how things in my life are all linked to giving me answers and guidance and proofs that support my faith God is always there. It is really hard to put into words, but I see it as a thread that is attached to my lifes time. All things that seem to happen, if I release my need to go forward and plan my way, will let me if I relax to realize what's happened in the past at any given moment is what brought me to that moment "right now". And sometimes, and I guess this is God letting me know it is time to get past this lesson and move on for all the times its been repeated thus far, I'll have this vision of what is happening now, challenging me now to respond in some way, as that which I've encountered before, only with slightly different characteristics. And in that vision I'll remember what I said, did, felt, so that moment moved forward as was intended and by my response to it. And as that happens in a flash of recall, that vision, I'm then able to say, do, or feel, a different way than I did back then, and I do. And of course the moment moves on from that.
What I have noticed when those visions occur and I respond is, to date I've not had those moments recur. I am thinking that is God's way of letting me know I graduated those lessons. On to the next.
It really is a school, this life. I remember Emmanuel saying,
have I not told you, ye are God's? I know some good folk who believe that passage is saying, we are divine and gods , creators, in our own right/rite. Perhaps that is true. However, I read the message as saying, we belong to God. We are his and always have been as we and all that exists are of and from God. And no thing that exists is of any other than God.
I believe the teaching that we were separated from God in Eden is one that informs that separation is an illusion that the worldly factors lay in place to make us believe we are all we have. And "finding Christ", realizing the anointed, is when we release the hold this worlds illusion has upon us as all there is, and realize we are not only of God, and from God, we are divinely created, inspired, and led to be the image and likeness proof of God while here on Earth. "Christian" = Christ~like.
Enough said I guess. I do tend to ramble when I speak of our relationship. Thank you again and may God always bless your steps.
