The question was posed~
“ What would you do if you weren’t afraid?”
Hmm..
I know this answer sounds so Christian~ese,
but it is what truly came in my heart,
because I knew if I did the following
then I would never be afraid to do anything.
My answer~
TOTAL ABANDONMENT TO GOD!
To TRUST GOD fully with
my THREE PERSONS~
ME, MYSELF and I
and with
EVERYONE ELSE!
Oh the FREEDOM that makes you
SOAR
when you LIVE your SECONDS
in ABANDONMENT OF SELF~
"To abandon ourselves to GOD
means that we must leave ourselves alone.
We must take our hands off of ourselves,
and fall unconditionally into HIS hands." (Depra)
Oh how I wish I would ALWAYS LIVE like this
in every SECOND.
But because I am way too human
I FORGET to
BE STILL AND KNOW THAT GOD IS GOD
and I am not.
As I love putting THE WORD into action,
it was time to LET GO again,
because I was starting to HOLD ONTO
too much of me,
as I was listening to me
and all the lies in my head
that did not match up with THE TRUTH of WHO I AM IN CHRIST.
So I went to my favorite place on this earth,
the beach,
and picked up
an empty
Mussel Shell
that was still hinged together.
I stood at the water's edge.
As I prayed, I started to detach the shell,
picturing one side representing me
and
the other side representing everything else that I am attached to.
And then it happened.
GOD HAPPENED.
Right before the break
I looked at the shell
and
saw how it looked like a
BUTTERFLY
getting ready to
FLY FREE
as a NEW CREATION.
A BUTTERFLY doesn't crawl,
like it did as a caterpillar
when it is was
dreaming about the day
it would have wings
and would be set FREE TO FLY.
Hmm.
"Therefore, if anyone is in CHRIST, the new creation has come:
The old has gone, the new is here!"
(2 Corinthians 5:17).
Are you ready to
FLY
as HIS NEW CREATION,
even if you feel like you don't have anything to
FLY about?
But you DO.
Because LIVING IN CHRIST
is where the IMPOSSIBLE becomes POSSIBLE.
"I can do all things [which HE has called me to do] through HIM who strengthens and empowers me [to fulfill HIS purpose—I am self-sufficient in CHRIST'S sufficiency;
I am ready for anything and equal to anything through
HIM who infuses me with inner strength and confident peace]
(Philippians 4:13 AMP).
This is your SECOND
to open your wings
with
TOTAL ABANDONMENT
to the
ONE
who has given
you wings
to
FLY UNAFRAID,
no matter what you may be feeling,
no matter what you may not have,
and
no matter what you are waiting to happen or to unhappen.
It is TIME TO DETACH
from whatever is weighing down you wings
by
ATTACHING to the ONE who enables you to FLY
because
"Those who wait for the LORD [who expect, look for, and hope in HIM]
Will gain new strength and renew their power;
They will lift up their wings [and rise up close to GOD]
like eagles [rising toward the sun]; They will run and not become weary,They will walk and not grow tired" (Isaiah 40:31).
PERMISSION TO FLY
because
IN CHRIST
you are
"A NEW CREATION"
