I'm on a journey. I know where I'm going but not how I'll get there. Its a mystery only God knows...and isn't telling.

I Am Here

A miracle is a sensibly perceptible interruption of the laws of nature, such that can only be explained by divine intervention (Wikipedia)

I'm still here despite not having blogged for 8 months. I guess I just needed a break. I started back today because I came across this portion of a sermon and it really spoke to me. I think its worth sharing. If you've ever prayed for a miracle in your life, this might speak to you too.

WAIT FOR GOD TO WORK HIS MIRACLE

If you have a promise from God that hasn’t happened yet, there is a process by which the Lord brings promises to fulfillment: (1) God gives a promise; (2) He removes the human possibility of fulfilling it; (3) God brings the fulfillment. When God gives a promise over your life, this process immediately goes into motion. Even if the promise seems to be simple and easy to fulfill, if it’s a real prophesy of the Lord, it’s going to take a miracle to get it.

We often look for instant deliverances, speedy fulfillment of promises and prophesy from God. If you’re thinking, “I had such a fantastic Word over my life. God confirmed it to my heart many times. But I’ve been in this impossible situation so long, I wonder if it will ever come to pass.” Great! Now you’re in the place where God can move.

Are you between a rock and a hard place today? Before we can have tenacious faith, we have to give up trusting in our own strength, reserves and abilities. If you have a promise from God, but it’s presently impossible for it to happen, rejoice! God finally has you at the end of yourself.
(The Rev Anne Barber, Pastor of My Father's House Church, Ellenton, FL)

I am so there in my life. I am here, at the end of myself, waiting on God. If you are where I am, the only thing we have control over is whether or not to rejoice.

Today, my choice is to rejoice in God's work in my life, and yours.
