"My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” 2 Corinthians 12:9
Hello precious brides
It feels like it's been so long since I've shared a praise report. There's been a lot of feelings and things to die to the past few weeks while moving. Moving is an act of faith no doubt.
A few months ago, when I moved, I had new friends coming out of the woodwork, the Lord blessed me in such a big way. I felt His provision and could see it. It helped calm my heart.
This time, it seemed like no one was around. All my friends had not shown any interest in helping me, but I knew my Beloved Lord and Best Friend would send someone. But with only a week lift to move everything, no one came. Except my spouse. Not my first choice, but my Beloved Lord knew what He was doing.
It was a challenging week, telling my heart to trust in Him, ignore my feelings and turn them over to Him. But the more I feel the more I see it as an opportunity to take those feelings to my Beloved Lord who is the only one who holds my heart safely in His hands.
Now, completely moved into the home I shared with my spouse; I began to feel sorry for myself. Thoughts like, this home is gross, too many bad memories etc etc, and my teenage son decided not to move with us. He's not wanting to go back to this home. But my Love is so faithful and true and filled me back up with fresh hope, a new word. Reminding my what selfless love has the power to do.
So today, I choose to walk in love. Practice being unoffendedable because I know how much He loves me and How deeply He desires my heart.
He's been showing me when I speak offensively, from a place of self-preservation! Showing me areas that He wants me to trust Him even more.
The past few months have sped by, and I've grown so much, and this season is something new and it will be beautiful as well.
I will rest in His peace, love others with His perfect love and walk in faith. ❤️
Thank you for sharing this beautiful praise Rasa. I love where you said: “my Beloved Lord who is the only one who holds my heart safely in His hands.” Yes, our hearts are safe in His hands. Your opening verse is such a powerful one “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” 2 Corinthians 12:9
what a precious lesson we get to learn as we go through this life. 💜
““My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts,” says the Lord. “And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine. For just as the heavens are higher than the earth, so my ways are higher than your ways and my thoughts higher than your thoughts.”
Isaiah 55:8-9 NLT

Sometimes it is not the way we would do things. But continue to trust in Him alone, just as you are doing. He will continue to use this new season to draw you near to Him. He is working everything out for good and in the right season everything will come together.
Thank you for sharing precious Rasa, isn’t it wonderful how our Darling Lord holds our hearts safely and that you see it all has an opportunity to take to our Lord and that is all what He is busy doing. I am excited to see what testimony our Darling Lord will give you that will come out of this move.

Dear Raza, we can only rest in the Lord, knowing that He has a place for us, that He will not abandon us, and that His plans are better than ours. Continue to have more of Him and His light will guide you. Thank you for sharing your testimony.
He may be taking other “help” away to get you to depend only on Him. I pray you continue to keep trusting in Him and choosing to walk in love. I’m sure He has amazing things in store for you. Keep leaning on your Beloved and keep praising Him in all things. ❤️
I was just thinking on this possiblity too sister, and if that’s case then I am even more happy because that’s so precious that He wants to be alone with me!!
