Strong Winds Ahead.I know this. as I put one foot in front of the other. leaving behind what I know to embrace what he's put before me.
Strong Winds Ahead.
I know this. as I sit before Him in worship. feeling so overwhelmed by his manifest presence that I don't know whether to cry or laugh.
Strong Winds Ahead.
I know this. as I struggle to put to death every fear that raises its head, crying out in the "Voice of Reason".A voice that haughtily cites practical realities that fly in the face of what He has said. that casually mock the doors He has already opened. that call His Truth a lie.
Strong Winds Ahead.
I know this. because I can't get past the fact that a gale force wind has *hit* my home in full force. calling me step out. challenging me to step it up.
Yet.I can't turn back, you know? I can't push this aside. Not this time. because there's too much riding on my complete obedience.
This thing that the Lord is asking of me.... something that has to go publicly undefined at this point for sheer sanity sake (my own. not yours. *wink*)....is, without doubt, the tip of the arrow in the unseen heavenly realm that surrounds my life.
For I know...I know that I know that I know that I know...that the completion of this could open doors to every promise the Lord has ever given me.
It's that big.
So I asked the Lord for a life scripture to hang onto during this season of my life. He gave me this:
Joshua 1:2-9
And these two things stand out: Now therefore arise." and
"Have I not commanded you? Be strong and of good courage; be not frightened, neither be dismayed; for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go"...
So yeah...I know strong winds are ahead. It's what both scares and excites me. Because I know that the Holy Spirit is one ginormous Strong Wind.
And I want to be so dependent on him that when he breathes on me, my whole being moves.
