“It’s Just A
Thought”
In several
weeks my husband and I will be meeting with tremendous pastors for our
traditional end of year review. We sometimes lick our wounds, pray for one
another, enjoy fellowship and make plans for another year. Our conversations at
times are painful, other discussions can be fun and frivolous in nature, but in
it all, we resolve our focus to a better tomorrow. Speaking of our collective
tomorrow’s, we just finished one of the most negative Presidential Campaigns in
our lifetime. Whatever your political preference is, the outcome of this
election has broken records. To me, that is really saying something,
considering our rich national history. With the over whelming victory for some
and heart wrenching defeat for others, the mood could not be more polarizing.
As a result of
our new normal, I find myself very engaged in self-examination. Change is
inevitable, but when you are faced with a life changing event in history, you
need to be able to evaluate so many things at once. All of us, as spiritual
leaders surely SEE that we have moved in a single moment to a very different
change. For us, as spiritual leaders our first priority needs to be “God what
are you saying?” “What am I to do moving forward, to help myself, family and those
you have given me responsibility to lead?”
When an out of
the box experience occurs, our navigation must come through the revelation of
the Word. I sense God will be pouring His new wine for us all. The
condition of our wine skins is extremely important. Do we detect a dry spirit
taking us over? Are there blisters in our system’s from use that need mending?
Are our feelings faltered? Our vision cloudy? Our hands and feet tired? Do we
hurt and need a restorative word? Let us believe help is on the way. It is time
to reflect and hear what God is saying.
May we not
waste a minute, but believe, healing from God is our hope to a better tomorrow.
Take a lesson from Habakkuk.
“Write the
vision. Make it plain.”
Things that
have seemed lost or held up will come to us. Vision that has become old, will
be renewed. Our methods that are outdated will be reviewed. Our dreams that
heave been put on hold, can come forth. A heart that can still hope, believe
and move toward help in Christ will conquer all the negatives of lost people,
places or things.
What could
happen in our communities if Jesus could have His way? Why not believe that
everything is possible with Jesus Christ? He wants to get into our schools, our
homes, communities, and our world with His powerful message of redemption. He
is our true answer of hope to retaliate against the white noise we hear daily.
Our society is
in pain. People are lost and many have no compass in life. It seems as if our
colleges of higher learning have lost all common sense. We have fed our minds
but starved our souls in the process of attaining a degree. We can only hope we
get new ideas as to how to reach our towns and cities with a word of love and
assurance for people to believe in. May we never let our hope become deferred
which makes our hearts sick. Look into the eyes of Christ, He will guide us if
we ask. He will fill us with fresh fire, He will keep us safe and once again
His rain of renewal will fall upon our land. People need the Lord. He is our
truest leader and at the heart of our moving forward He will not be denied in
enriching our lives with benefits.
Refresh
yourself again and renew your hope in Jesus Christ. He is not regulated by any
earthly restriction. We are His people and we will not be left ashamed from
believing that the very best is yet to be. Believe it, count on it, and dare to
hope for it.
Until The Next
Time,
Prophet Kathie
