The one where she was still…
It felt like time was moving at sloth’s speed. Her body was feeling what the English men and women so colourfully described as ‘general malaise’ which caused her to be mildly intolerant of anything. This included work except that she actually had to show up to work. Well. She would later discover that she did not HAVE to , she just chose to show up at work. She shelved that realization of choice for unboxing later.
There she sat in her car in the driveway not having the slightest motivation to go into the house. She sat there watching the very grey skies that had quickly gathered dimming the natural light. Tiny droplets of rain started to fall on her car’s windshield when her friend called. She surrendered to this moment;flowing and not resisting what was. After speaking words of encouragement to each other she hung up the call and continued to watch the sky. She had always loved nature because in It she found God. This moment felt so powerful. In that moment she was still.

The droplets were but few and soon after she started to notice the dark grey clouds moving away, and slowly the rays of sun started to move past the clouds as one would draw curtains and with no fight the clouds obliged. The sun came out and warmed the earth again to the point of burning her forehead as she stepped out of her car. This moment reminded her how quickly things can change when she remained still and kept her eyes on her maker.
It is written in the word of God, be still and I will fight for you, I will strengthen you and help you. God is not limited by time. It may look like it’s getting darker and maybe it is. Not only that but it might start pouring too! You may have thought that God would at least keep the sun shining and not let it grey but now not only did he let it grey but he let the rain start to pour too! You might have wondered where the one who watches over your coming and going was when it started to get thick. The truth of the matter is , he is and was still in it. The minute you call out to him he shows up.
When we fix our eyes on the one who made the earth and everything and everyone in it things start to move. God shifts things so quickly because our eyes are on him. Fully trusting that he can get us through anything and being God can he fail?You trust him to carry you through it. He has never failed and he will not start with you. Fix your eyes on him and enter his rest.
May Elohim remind you who you are and whose you are today. You are so precious, so dearly loved that there had to death so you could be saved! Put your head up. You are more than a conqueror!!
Until next time,
Love Jo.
