I heard something about myself last week that kind of caught me off guard. My first reaction was, “Oh no, I need to call someone and set that straight.” I felt something in my spirit say let it go. There have been several situations surrounding the whole ordeal that I was certain needed the truth or justification exposed, but the Holy Spirit said again, let it go. I was thinking on this today and I realized God is my defense. He knows the entire story every side, every angle. Nothing is hid from Him. It can’t be spun in a way that He can’t see right through. The Holy Spirit told me to let it go because “My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation [is] from him. (5)” As I wait I am not alone because God is my defense, “He only [is] my rock and my salvation: [he is] my defence; I shall not be moved. (6)” Not only is my defense in Him, but my strength and refuge as well, “In God [is] my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, [and] my refuge, [is] in God. (7)” [Psalm 62:5-7]
You don’t always have to defend yourself even if you know you are right! *** smiles *** God is working behind the scenes defending you in ways you don’t even know about! I don’t know how this situation with me will turn out. What I do is this, God knows the truth. What He knows is far more important that what anyone else thinks they know. He has a way of bringing things done in darkness to light. I’m going to keep shining and keep doing what’s right. Do you have someone trying to damage your character? Hand them over to God and let your light keep shining too. Don’t you know we are the King’s kids? There is no one that can dull our shine! ~ Chelle, #f8ithgal
