Did you know that is it OKAY to be OKAY,
even if everything is not OKAY?
Think about it.
You have been ANXIOUS about ____________.
You have been WORRIED about ___________.
You have been FEARFUL about ____________.
You have been ANGRY about _____________.
But then you STOP.
You PRAY about EVERYTHING.
And then you really STOP.
And you are OKAY.
You are actually breathing.
You are starting to crack a smile,
but then you feel like
you are not allowed to smile
because what you have been
ANXIOUS
WORRIED
FEARFUL
and
ANGRY
about is still not OKAY,
but you are OKAY!
Permission to be OKAY.
Actually,
permission to be
ABUNDANTLY BETTER
than OKAY,
when things around you are not OKAY
because
GOD is always
ABUNDANTLY BETTER
than
OKAY
because
JESUS is always ABUNDANTLY BETTER than OKAY,
no matter what is or isn't OKAY in your life.
Sounds very elementary,
way too simple
that you and I
have permission to be
ABUNDANTLY BETTER than OKAY
when you feel like you shouldn't be
OKAY.
But there is only one way to be
OKAY
when things aren't
OKAY,
and that is by
having a
HEART TO HEART
with
THE ONE
who created your
HEART,
THE ONE
who knows your
HEART,
THE ONE
who wants to have a
HEART TO HEART with you.
Oh how the flood gates open
when you
pour out your heart to the LORD.
HE listens.
HE stays.
HE lets you talk and cry and whine and complain.
And then it HAPPENS.
You are OKAY,
because you are
ABUNDANTLY BETTER than OKAY.
PERMISSION TO BE OKAY WHEN YOUR LIFE ISN'T OKAY
because
letting GOD know that you are not OKAY
is when
HE makes you OKAY
because
HE is ALWAYS WORKING
FOR THE GOOD
ALL the
NOT OKAYS
that are in you life!
Just TELL GOD
because
"My heavenly FATHER knows all about this!”
(Oswald Chambers).
Oh to
BE STILL AND KNOW
that
GOD IS GOD,
is the sweet spot
of
LIVING THE ABUNDANT LIFE~
LIVING WITH MORE IN THE MIDDLE OF LESS.
So
will you be
OKAY being OKAY
even though
everything in your life is not
OKAY,
because
IN CHRIST
everything will
"BE ALRIGHT"
(listen to the song below)
