Last night I had the most intense discussion with God that I have had in awhile. Let's just say I listened more than I talked and it was deep. I'm not going to get the details on the blog, that's between me and Him, but I wanted to challenge you the way He challenged me.
What kind of journey are you on that's taking longer than it should? What are you doing now that should have only taken 11 days, but instead you have spent 40 years going around and around the same mountain. (Let me stop here and say if you are unfamiliar with the story of the Israelites, that's what I am referring to right now. Their journey to the Promise Land should have only taken 11 days, but because of their choices their journey took 40 years).
Our choices(words/actions) can turn our journey into 40 years instead of 11 days. Hear me now, God's plans are always for our good and not to harm us, but sometimes our choices determine how long we stay still(in other words how long we stay in one season).
Are you standing on the verge of a new season? The choice is yours whether you walk into that season or whether you continue to go around that same mountain. What journey are you on that should have only taken you 11 days, but it is seeming to go on forever? Ask God to show you what is holding you back, trust me He will. Then the choice is up to you, are you going to do what He says or let fear keep you on your 40 day journey?
There will be more to this later on, I'm sure. For now though, I have some choices to make, some walking to do.
Until next time,
~Melissa
**Hope this makes sense ;-)
