The Irony of It All

So, I sit here and reflect on everything that God has provided for me, specifically in the last six months, and am dumbfounded on just one of my many epiphanies as I like to call it when the light bulb comes on in the room upstairs. Hold on for this one; it may just very well blow your socks off. Here it is: The more 'history' I have with Him- that is the more I see that He really does what He says He will do, the more I love Him and want to seek His will and honor and glorify His great name! Not rocket science; I know. You build that trust with someone the more they give you the opportunity to put your trust in them and you see they won't let you down. And how is that ironic you may ask yourself. Well, you see; the irony of it all comes when the other epiphany hits and I realize that HE does not have to have a 'history' with me to have the desire to give me what is His best. He wants to give it to me and does it out of His grace even when His 'history' with me is not 100%. If He did it because He had a history with me and I was as faithful to Him as He is to me, I would never experience His many and wonderful provisions He so graciously gives.

As the chorus in Kari Jobe's song, You Are For Me, states:
"Lord, I know that You are for me; I know that You are for me.
I know that You will never forsake me in my weakness.
I know that You have come now, even if to write upon my heart.
To remind me of who You are."

I find myself clinging to the part where it says that He will never forsake me in my weakness. I know I'm gonna screw things up again, and I will for sure go through another drought and drift from His stream of living water. BUT, He says he will for sure be there with me holding me up through that weakness I have.

I'm still working on putting the post together about how God has and is providing so stay tuned, but I wanted to share my epiphany real quick with ya.

Be back soon
