Yesterday I was fighting with the window. Heat was pouring in and my curtains were no longer enough. I was trying to hang something over it to block out the sun. I struggled and struggled and then said I give up. I just can’t do it God. I sat down in defeat. Help me Poppa. Within minutes, He directed me to get a metal pole, hang the blanket over the pole, pull it under the curtain and rest it on the rod. It not only blocked the sun out, it was pretty. All I had to do was ask God for help and then be still. That was the important part. You see my mind was running too fast, I had become frustrated. I needed to stop. I needed to sit down. I needed to just be still.
The problem had become in possible to me. I had allowed it to steal my peace. When I cried out to God and then sat quietly in His presence He gave me the solution I needed. I know this is a seemingly little problem, but in that moment it seemed huge. It made me think. How many times do we run before God? How many times to we try to do things on our own? How many paths do we walk that we weren’t really intended to walk? He can calm those storms caused by our impatience and detours but how many could have been avoided? I’m thankful for a God who turns my mistakes into testimonies and draws me closer to Him. But every day, I’m learning more and more to just be still. 🦅 ~ Prophetess Michelle, #f8ithgal #Joy
“And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.” ~ Mark 4:39
