I said to my daughters yesterday. I don’t want to say something I might later regret, so I posted an old blog, which had this at the very end:
“I loved our family’s appointment with God today that we should go as far as praying and asking God for help in learning to forgive and love the difficult people in our lives. I CAN’T GET OVER HOW HE HAS CERTAINLY HEALED MY LITTLE BROKEN HEART!”
Fast forward to maybe an hour later and still in my messed-up mood from ANOTHER BROKEN HEART (LOL), I finally opened up my meditation book to see what God had to say to me, and unbelievably I opened to this powerful message from Him:
“STAY CLOSE TO ME (GOD) as I work on mending your BROKEN HEART. Of course, your repaired heart will not be exactly as it was before, but in some ways it will be much better. Your renewed heart—stripped of its cherished hopes—will have more space for Me.” – Jesus Calling by Sarah Young
Woohoo! Yes, please God, I want more of You!!!
This was another one of my God winks where everything lines strangely too perfectly. For me to pick that old post of all the thousands of them I’ve written, and for me to open to THAT page in a book of over 700 pages and even to read THAT book of all my meditation books was God coming down and wrapping His arms around my BROKEN HEART and letting me know that He’s with me.
I will never get over the sweetness of God and how He will find some way to orchestrate something so that I’d know His invisible Presence is ALWAYS with me. The hurts and disappointments will always be there too, but at least with God’s Presence, I can calmly and manly handle them. With my eyes fixed on Him, I can go the extra mile in love, ALL FOR HIS GLORY.
Are you making your relationship with God a priority? He sometimes leads us down some extremely difficult paths and asks us to make some tough decisions, but when we follow His leading being our best, most loving and forgiving selves, trusting Him with all our hearts and that He would be the One to pay us back for any wrongs, He guides us on the path to the best life. Wink! Wink!
KEEP CALM—YOU’RE ROLLING WITH GOD
