I am looking forward to great things in the coming New Year! Every year has been amazing since my Jubilee year when God woke me up but this year is seven years later so I really believe that this will be the best year ever.
Choose the Narrow Path…
I learned a lot this past year about myself and I look forward to getting to know myself even more this year. The most significant thing I learned was that this journey that I am on is an individual journey and I cannot take anyone with me or walk beside anyone else because the road is so narrow, there’s only room for one. I realized this when I noticed that I constantly had my eyes on someone else and wondered, “How can two walk together, lest they be agreed?” It was at this point that I saw clearly that while I was wishing that I could be in solidarity with someone who believed like I did, for the most part, but we were always in disagreement… I saw that I was wrong to judge them for not seeing things the way I saw them. I realized that God teaches and deals with each of us individually. What reaches me or what I understand or ‘remember’ is my own personal experience or relationship with the Father that will not mean anything to someone else who has their own relationship with God. Everyone is required to seek the Father themselves to Be Still Before the Lord (Psalms 37:7). This realization reminds me of that scripture in Isaiah where God said we would hear his voice (spirit) guiding us as we walk the narrow path. That’s why I am thankful to know the secret to hearing God’s voice… the silent prayer or standing quiet before God as Psalms 4:4 and Psalms 37:7 and Psalms 46:10 instructs us to do. This is an amazing life and I don’t have to lift a finger to live it, I can just Be… I’m grateful.
Be Still Before the Lord… Be Still and Know God…
