I don’ t know about you, but when my mind says, GO IN!” I do all but that. But why, though? Because in the past, I’ ve been known to dive headfirst into situations and relationships. Situations and relationships
By Shaunte L. Sparks of which I should have slowly walked into, if only to survey them and deem them suitable or not to entertain. I promise you, I didn’ t arrive here over night. I’ m from the school of Hard Knocks and have the battle scars / Beauty Marks( Ciara) to prove it. It took / takes a lot of deep breathing while talking and walking with ABBA Father, to keep calm, and follow His timing. There is so much information to gather before we rush right in. It takes discipline, wisdom, and discernment. For those of us who have been around the mulberry bush a dozen times or two, it takes for us to reflect on where we’ ve been and how long it took us to get“ here” to remain calm, poised, and steadfast on the Father’ s course of life. If you’ re anything like me, you have managed to get on your own nerves on this journey … but guess what, it helps you to learn yourself all the more.
I admire those who have found such a peace, calm, and sense of knowing when it comes to knowing where to move and the how that comes with it. Notice I wrote admire and not envy. I’ ve also learned that everyone has his or her own journey to acquire the grace they have to move in the knowings of God. We don’ t know the cost of each journey … we know the cost of our own. That being stated, all giftings come with a cost.
Some wouldn’ t think going in with wisdom and grace to be a gift; but, Baby if you paid the price of going in without the wisdom and discernment of the Father, coupled with His Divine timing and the order and guidance of your steps, you would beg to differ. When you can truly stand flat footed and firm in who you are in the Father, you don’ t jump the gun as much. You learn to acknowledge the message / the leading / the prompting and do the work on the backend while allowing things to align and materialize in the physical.
Wishing you more …
