Have you ever felt like the tides were turned in your favor and G-D was just swooping in blessings ocean wide? I feel like that is exactly what is happening right now in my life. I'm in the 'favor' season! Its like before i even ask for it the thoughts are being published! Its an awesome feeling!
This past year has been hard! I mean, new job, lost love, unanswered questions, lots and lots of stress...yet, the Keeper of the Stars has never once told me He was not with me and working things out together for my good. For those of you who don't know...yes...i am a big country buff! Its like in the midst of everything He was telling me, Hold On...Just Believe...Do Not Fear, Go, Go, Go...YOU'LL MAKE IT...I PROMISE! And guess what...I did! PRAISE BE TO GOD!
This past month has been awesome! I injured my achilles tendon not at dance class but at church mind you and I was unable to walk for a week! The following Sunday morning, contemplating how I would sit or not do praise and worship at church at all, I was listening to Rod Parsley interviewing Darlene Bishop, a Cancer Survivor, and she said while washing blood out of her night gown Praising G-D, tears splashing in bloody water how if her breast rotted and fell off and fell in that water she would still preach and proclaim that He was Jehova Raffi! I was tearing up thinking wow...thats FAITH! She also said...while praying for another couple who were going through a hard situation that the Lord told her..."Tell them when I get my Praise, they'll get their promise!" That interview blew me away...so on the way to Walmart I was speaking to our Father saying, "You know...I thank you for my healing in advance and when I get off this truck, i'm just going to walk as if nothing is wrong with me!" So I got off and my immediate reaction was...OW!!! LOL...I reminded myself, no...your HEALED by those STRIPES! and as I headed for the aspirin isle I sensed the pain leaving, by the time I got to the Aspirin I looked at them and said, "I don't even need them anymore!!!" Praise GOD!!! He healed me on the way to the Pain Reliever! LOL...One of my favorite songs is Love Heals your heart by Third Day...well, he heels your Achilles Tendon too! ;)
I'm just like really blown away...Not only that...but the week before I got blessed with a $100 by volunteering at a Christian TV program, I turned around and planted it, cause unexpected money is called SEED money. A week later still limping across town I got favor picking up my camera that had been held captive for three months with no problem and when I left the Lord put on my heart to go to Marshalls, me the debater I spoke back and said, "I don't want to go to Marshalls I was just in there Sunday and there was...N O T H I N G!" But as my Pastor Linda would say (to me only) (over and over and OVER again) "Obedience is better than Sacrifice!!" So I said..."Ok Lord...I will." I went in and N O T H I N G! "See Lord, I told you there was going to be nothing here..." So I immediately repented and said, "Maybe you just protected me from a car accident...thank you Lord, NOW ON TO THE GALLERIA!!!" See I had a date with American Eagle Outfitters that had been prolonged all week! So here I am on Black Friday at 2pm, traffic crazy, hitting every stop light Westheimer and Richmond had to offer, parking garage outrages, cars lined up for miles and I see the door at Macy's and think man that walk is going to HURT! Low and behold a shopper leaving with 12 bags in their hands (see the good deals stop at one...had I not had an injury, I would of been done by 10 am!) They are on the 2nd level 5 parking spaces away from Handicap! WOW...an attendent comes and lets them leave and instructs me to park there...YES...PRINCESS PARKING!!!! Praise you G-D, Praise you G-D, OW...I still thank you for my healing...no time to stop and look at jewelry, you need to go to American Eagle...do not stop at handbags...you can smell perfumes on your way back...I get to American Eagle and heres a lady handing out scratch offs..."Scratch off and win an extra 15, 20 or 30% on your entire purchase! Everyone's a winner." I scratch it off and it says see attendant. I say, "Excuse me, what does this mean? He rushes me to the front counter and says, "we have another one!" YOU JUST WON A $100 SHOPPING SPREE!!! My G-D, My G-D, MY G-D...tears welt up and I was the happiest girl hobbling through the store for TWO hours!!!
Needless to say...I PRAISED HIM ALL THE WAY HOME!!! ;)
