Who knew that this would happen? God has intensely shaped every heart and used this time to cast vision, detox, and challenge every heart's desire that's not in line with His will. God calls a pure and holy bride to rise up and walk in His provision. We have been blessed in so many ways by God who just provides. This week we were helping out at GLA. God provided roughly R24000 in 5 days to help build this school. Our benchmark is R30000 and we know God will provide the rest. When God casts a vision Hen I'll complete it. Through endurance we will come to see that His hope never disappoints! Deep inside my heart I can feel something stirring. God is up to something and We can all be a part of it. The God of the universe wants to make us part of His story that He is telling. I am just blown away by His grace. He wants to romance us. He wants to enter into a loving and intimate relationship without any condemnation...
...and we just need to take it.
We need to submit under God's vision for His kingdom. This makes sense and this protects us. When we submit under the vision of God we are all on the same playing field. No one better than the rest. We each have a role to play, a function to fulfill out of who we are. It is when people are positioned by God that submission becomes effortless. We all need to submit to the vision and just identify who has what to offer to make the vision move forward. All we need is to be willing. Willing to rise and fill the space God calls us to. Why has no one ever told us this? Who knew about this and went silent because of cultural definitions of leadership? Who knew what they were called for but hid in the dark because of lies fed to us by the system we live in? Who knew that it is as easy as just submitting to the vision of God and the rest will fall into place? Who knew...?
...all of us did.
We just got lost somewhere between obeying people out of fear and trying to survive. We lost perspective when we took things into our own hands...when we started to provide for ourselves through own efforts. And this is where God has showed up yet again to prove us wrong. He proved this week that He will take care of us. He provided food, shelter, and a place of belonging amongst us. And all we had to do was listen to His vision, be willing, and watch Him do the rest. It was as simple as that...
...now I know.
