Aimless

Aimless...

Why? Why is this happening? Why did he get in an accident? Why now? Why are all these things piling up at once?
Chloes broken arm?
My bruised shoulder and tricep...along with hip, neck and wrist issues?
no health insurance...
no new jeep tires....


Why? I hear myself cry out in my spirit to Him....

and then I hear his reply.....

'AIMLESS'

the first thing I pictured was an arrow...missing the mark!
a target but no bullseye...
a quiver full of sharpened arrows but with no place to go...

no goal....
no vision...
no purpose...
no mission....
no ministry....

perishing is what is happening....
His people do this where there is a lack of goals or targets.......when they are aimless!

it has a negative ring ....
almost like reckless...
without care....
ignorant....

God this is a harsh word, but I am going to take the warning and heed it...

GOD DOES NOT REVEAL A THING TO US WITHOUT WANTING TO HEAL IT!

We just gave up somewhere...I say we, when what I really mean is I gave up somewhere...
lowered my standards...
let down my guard...
loosened the boundaries....

I did this in my health and weight first....
then the spiritual followed....
untill I just got sick of myself, my life and decided I was ready for change!
for restoration...
regeneration...

not replacement surgery, but a regeneration of what once was....
some fanning of the flame that still flickers and smokes...
some splinting of the bruised reed, so as not to break it!

I am ready....are you?

one drop at a time

My daughter was taking a bath and observed the drops falling from the faucet, and said....This tub is going to overflow and be filled if those drops dropped all night. Her comment took my breath away as I stopped and contemplated the idea....
You see I wrestle with the choice of daily working out...
I really feel like skipping it on most days and I do....(with my rest days that I enjoy twice a week,) but on the other five days of the week it is always a struggle and a mental feat to Just lace up and do it!
but I have seen the fruit of making that change in my life almost daily...
I have seen the carvings on my body by the steady stream of training I subject it to...



Mountains are chiseled, craters are made, and basins are filled by drops...drops of water, seemingly insignifigant by themselves but when added together over a course of time....Well,

landscapes are changed,
fields are altered,
and otherwise empty vessels are filled up...

Thank you Lord for teaching me perseverance and in the process filling me up to overflowing.

How do miracles happen?

usually instant!
The Bible uses the adjectives, Suddenly
Quickly,
In the blink of an eye,
Straightaway....

How do healings on the other hand occur?

slowly,
methodically,
habitually,
one day at a time,
one drop at a time...
