Those times I feel vulnerable, I want to wrap myself in a Chador, veil my hair, lock myself away from the world and purge before Jesus through prayer, fasting and meditation. The mind and body is so delicate and can be easily broken by the daily stress of life.
We have to remember God is in control of our destiny..however, he grants unto us free liberty to make choices. Sometimes we do not make the sacrificial choices to honor God's will or our own well-being. Often we operate out of flesh, fear or self interest making life issues worse.
It's hard to have patience and wait on God to bless us with our inheritance. Therefore, we move God or turn away and attempt to make those fleshly material things happen for ourselves only to need God to clean up our mess in the end.
Are we truly seeking to be in the will of God or pimping his word to manipulate others and even ourselves to make people believe or dilute ourselves into believing we are okay?
Lately, I find myself thirsting more for the word of GOD and the true meaning of applying it to my life... that heavy tears and silence overtake my spirit as I'm captivated while reading his love letter. I had to ask God to reveal why such actions are taking place with me.
While I know God is still writing my story, reflections of my past often come up.. have I truly forgiven myself??? God has forgiven us and grants me favor daily. One would think than why think about the past. This is not self persecution, but mere reflections of just how far God has brought me and you too.
He has revealed to me thoughts of our past and the inner man who died doesn't mean I/we have not forgiven ourselves... it's simply a reminder of where never to go back to and to be thankful for the purging, rescue and new life he has blessed us with.
Do not allow Satan to play mind games with you or succumb to thoughts of depression. Satan wants us to believe we are not truly free. So when I say I want to wrap myself In a Chador, lock myself away from the world, and veil before Jesus in prayer, fasting and meditation... God revealed it's not necessarily because there is something wrong, but because I and you need to seek to always be closer to him that we feed more from his word to go forth to be a continued blessing to the world which is lost.
