Day 19: Don't Let Go

Writer's picture: JoniJoni

Why does GOD make it so easy that it is so hard?

Is it because it is FREE~

PEACE in the midst of anxiety

"that transcends all understanding" (Philippians 4:7).

HOPE in the midst of doubt~Why does GOD make it so easy that it is so hard?

Is it because it is FREE?

PEACE in the midst of anxiety

"that transcends all understanding" (Philippians 4:7).

HOPE in the midst of doubt~

“If you can’?” said JESUS. “Everything is possible for one who believes" (Mark 9:23).

JOY in the midst of despair~

"Rejoice always and delight in your faith;

be unceasing and persistent in prayer;

in every situation [no matter what the circumstances]

be thankful & continually give thanks to GOD;

for this is the will of GOD for you

in CHRIST JESUS"

(I Thessalonians 5:16-18 AMP).

Why does GOD make it so easy that it is so hard?

Or do we make it so hard?

Is it because we still BELIEVE we can do it on our own?

Have you ever been pushed against a wall

when your feelings strive to get the best of you,

leading you to a place that does not feel so good?

Oh, as I am a very FEELING being,

as my FEELINGS are always churning.

Some good. Some not so good.

The worse is when I want them to go away,

because they are beating so loud,

so I cry out to GOD.

And then nothing happens.

And then I cry out to JESUS.

And then nothing happens.

So

where is GOD & where is JESUS?

Oh THEY are right there with me,

just waiting for the perfect time to do what only THEY could do.

It is a dark place when you are doing what GOD asks you to do,

yet all you hear is silence.

Hopelessness and helplessness strives to get the best of you,

when you feel like you are getting the silent treatment.

Even though

you know the TRUTH and the TRUTH has set you FREE,

but you find yourself at the end of yourself.

Now this is the sweet spot where FAITH grows.

In the WAIT.

Tick. Tick. Tick.

Trusting GOD in the WAIT.

But then it happens,

or should I say

GOD happens.

In HIS PERFECT TIMING.

SUDDENLY HE does it.

Something in you CHANGES as you are transformed.

You can't explain it, because it is not of yourself.

Does GOD wait for complete SURRENDER of yourself?

Does HE WAIT for that one moment ,

when you are finally realize that

GOD IS GOD

and you are not?

Well I BELIEVE yes,

as HE has taken me there so many times

to the end of myself,

where all I have left is utter

DEPENDANCE on HIM.

WAITING in the STILLNESS,

because

GOD IS GOD

and

HE IS IN CONTOL.

And lo and behold,

as it is ,

because

it is

in GOD'S PERCET TIMING

when

PEACE overwhelms you beyond your comprehension,

as you know it is not from yourself.

GOD goes beyond your wildest dreams,

without fixing the circumstance,

yet fixing the real issue~

your HEART

because it is an

INSIDE OUTSIDE job.

GOD ALWAYS doing what HE does best~

CHANGING your HEART in the midst of non changing circumstances.

Hang on. Hold Tight.

When you feel like there is no where else to turn~

HE IS THERE.

When you feel like you can't get out of your feelings~

HE IS THERE.

When you feel like HE isn't THERE~

HE IS THERE.

GOD IS ALWAYS THERE BECAUSE GOD IS ALWAYS HERE.

Therefore,

when

HOPE feels lost

&

when

PEACE turns to anxiety

&

when

JOY is a distant memory,

Hold on & Hang tight

to HIM

because

HE IS THE ANSWER

when there appears to be

no ANSWER

because

JESUS is ALWAYS THERE~

"I am coming soon.

Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown" (Revelation 3:11)

For the moment is now~

"It's MIRACLE TIME.

I'm lifting my eyes

To the ONE who does impossible things"

(listen to the song MIRACLE TIME below).
