Getcho Spirit Right

There’s nothing more peaceful than knowing you aren’t in control but choosing to allow God to work through you.

During the holiday time holiday cheer was definitely in the atmosphere. I loveeeee seeing how the birthday of the king of all kings brings so much joy, happiness and gratitude to family’s. It was a reminder that joy can happen in the midst of hardships. As I reflect on the last week for the Getcho Spirit Right Challenge, I learned 5 major takeaways from the Bible app devotional ‘Dealing with uncertainty’; 1. ‘You acknowledge your limitations, lay down your expectations, and pick up God’s declarations’. I’m learning that uncertainty gives me the change to unlearn to be anew. 2. I’m working on allowing others to be there for me but it’s hard. I feel like I have to have low expectations while allowing others to be there for me although I give my highest expectations. I feel like they may got me but not the way I will have them. It makes me feel like if I do it myself at least it will be on me. In all actuality I want help, I want community, so I’m working on receiving. 3.‘Their delayed expectations led to poor decisions’ is me. My continuous prayer and practice is to be patient and don’t grow weary when it’s not on my time. The turn out is always better with God timing. 4. ‘The thoughts you fill your mind with are crucial because what you cling to influences your worldview.’, whatever you consume ends up consuming you. 5. “The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.” - Exodus 14:14 . One of my main practices in fasting or even on a daily basis is sitting with myself. There’s nothing more peaceful than knowing you aren’t in control but choosing to allow God to work through you. Stillness is knowing things can be out of control but you aren’t out of control. I live for that. All that to say is God is always with us and always will be even in uncertain times. At the end of the day we can always depend on his word, he is a God that never lies and I’m happy to call him my father. He the goat 🐐 fr ❤️
