More convincing
My Sunshine Prophesy was amazing and should have been enough for me to say, “Yes Lord! I’ll move with a joyful heart.” But that wasn’t the case. Instead I was stunned by God’s reply and it took a bit of time to digest all that He gave me.
I went home and began to talk with Tracy about looking at the property and I was trying to explain what I was thinking and feeling, but it didn’t come out that way. He could not understand why I was resistant to a new home, most women would love to have a new home. He was very frustrated with me and I went outside to spend some time on the deck and pray some more.
As I sat outside crying and praying. I felt like selling the house was like telling God it’s not good enough. The home I was living in was more than I ever dreamed I would have and I felt like I was disappointing God by going after something else. Then more words of my Sunshine Prophesy came to mind. “He will enfold you with love.” I cried harder, I didn’t deserve His love but there He was pouring it out on me.
I went to church and prayed more. I wanted to know without a doubt that this is what God wanted me to do. “Inquire of the Lord,” that’s what my word said and as I prayed during the worship service a song by Lauren Daigle said, “letting go of everything single dream.” I knew immediately that those words were for me. Let it go, it’s okay. “I will provide beyond your wildest dreams.”
From that moment on I knew that we were to move and I was not going to resist any longer. God had a plan and He was going to be with me. He was asking me to “Walk Boldly” with Him.
” Yes, Lord, I’ll go.”
My prayer
Micah 7:7 – But as for me, I will look to the Lord;
I will wait for the God of my salvation; my God will hear me
Father, I thank you that you are so patient with me and my doubts. You always encourage me and love me beyond what I can even comprehend. Please help me to go! Go wherever you lead and to trust you fully. I know that you are faithful and your plans for me are good. Amen.
Where does my help come from?
Proverbs 3:5-6
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight”
