This weekend I have been experiencing
A
Blast from the past
as I have traveled back to
Purdue University
where I first stepped
33 years ago as
a
New Bride
a
New Graduate Student
to
Becoming
a
New Mom...
God's Greater Plan that I couldn't have ever imagined.
A
Blast from the past
As I run through the campus today
as a very grown women, no longer 22,
I think about~
who was that little girl
who thought she knew God~
a
God Who
took control of her life
without her even realizing it...
As she is now in the present
looking up to
a
God Who she now knows
Who followed her to
every new state
He then moved her to,
Growing her family
Coming into their lives.
Who was that little girl?
She is
this woman
Who cant stop looking up
Because
He had a plan
that was beyond what her eyes could see~
Who was always there
even when she wasn't looking
Because
she was blind
and now she sees.
A
Blast from the past
that opened up my eyes to
His greatness because He knew
the day I would say "I do" to my precious husband
the day I would first step on this campus
the day I would become a mom..
to the one who is now a new mom.
A
Blast from the past
Filled with blessings.
What Blast from the past do you need to look back to,
to be reminded of how great God's love is for you?
But what about those
Blasts from the past
that don't carry the weight of blessings
but
the weight of loneliness, sadness and pain,
every time the little child in us
goes back?
There are some things that linger from my past,
that when the little girl in me looks back
continues to add weight
as she holds onto to them...
But when she fasts from them
by
placing them into His hands
He then
Works for good
All things
Into good
Because
He was there
He is here
And
He will always be...
for this little girl
and
for your little child inside,
because
He
continues to write your beautiful story.
And...
when you look back with Jesus
you will see how all the pieces fit together so perfectly
because
God is always weaving together your past into your perfect present.
What part of your past
needs a blast a love from the One Who heals the brokenhearted?
Today is Sunday,
when you get to choose what you want to fast from
So...
What blast from the past
do you need to fast from that still causes pain when you look back?
Let God blast from you
that part of the past
that keeps weighing you down
by
Looking up to the One
who sees beyond what you can't see
so
you can
move forward to live the abundant life that He came to give
and
Enjoy the
Miracle of the Moment
