Have you ever had a divine apointment? Im talking about a time when you felt the urge to go do something very uneventful, like take a walk or go to the store, and it turned out to be all in HIS Divine Plan. Well, I just had one....and Im sure you have too. But, let me share this one with you.
I was studying and trying a new system, where Im logging and timing everything I do within my study day. Well, My sleeping pattern is kind off right now...So, I started studying at 1pm today...and have had scheduled breaks about every three hrs. So, here I am on the long stretch and it's midnight..but, I say..okay, you didnt get your workout in today...so, walk to campus and fill up your water jug and go workout for thirty minutes...So, I did....but, my workout lasted over an hr...I brought my Ipod and my new Sony noise reduction headsets...I was ready to enjoy some good music and clear my head...But, instead I had a Divine appointment...
I ran into a classmate, that I haven't seen since Christmas break. I really didn't know her all that well, except for in passing and seeing her with her little baby...Well, we did have a study group together once...And she has the same name as my mother...So, I could always remember her name with ease....Well, for some reason tonight, we connected and began to talk. She shared with me that she will be leaving school this week and hopefully can pick it back up in a few years when her 4 month old is much older. I know this must have been a hard decision for her to make. I could only imagine, after you have sacrificed so much and finally get where you know you've always wanted to be, and the "BUT' gets in your way......So, I felt compelled to share with her my story with her....
Remember, I was only intending on staying at the gym 30mins or less, because I wasn't finsh studying for the night..Well, as I began to share my story and how I was faced with many obstacles and challenges, something came over me and I could not stop talking. I shared story after story....triumph after triumph. I felt compelled to let her see the endless possibilities that still lie ahead for her...because GOD's Promises are a SURE THING...no matter what it looks like there is an answer and HE will make a way. I began to encourage her to seek GOD's counsel and when HE SPEAKS...let that PEACE rest and move in the direction given. Although she has no earthly idea of what corner to turn....I know GOD will show her the way she should go without a doubt.
When there are times in your life and the road appears to be dark or if your plans feel like they are falling apart at the seams..rest assure that there is a way....GOD has already made away of escape for you. He has not forsaken you. And if you keep on believing, your time will come and the dream will mainifest.
I know a lot of times my blog spots may seem a bit overly optimistic, but the truth of the matter is, this is the FAITH that I have in MY GOD...this is the FAITH that overcomes the WORLD, even when it's the darkest, I must stand on HIS WORD and BELIEVE...All I need is faith the size of a grain of a mustard seed according to Luke 17:6 and I can speak to mullbery tree (any obstacle in my way) and tell it to be removed and cast into the sea and it WILL OBEY ME. (A mullberry trees can grow up to 49ft tall, and sometimes challenges of life seem even taller. BUT, I believe HIS WORD. I read a commentary that said the mustard seed parable is telling us that if we take hold of the Kingdom of GOD, it will take root and grow and let it change us from the inside out. We will be able to accomplish anything by the POWER of GOD formed within us. I like that....received that NOW for yourself!) I know and ALL THINGS ARE WORKING FOR MY GOOD....even things that I can not see...
Believe in yourself. Believe in your destiny. Most importantly Believe in YOUR GOD. The Creator of the Universe.
This is YOUR DIVINE APPOINTMENT.....
Now, GO LIVE YOUR DREAM....
