I am already a son. I don’t need to work for it. I don’t need to put on an act or strive to do anything. God accepts me for me. All my faults. insecurities. sins. whatever happens, whatever comes my way. It’s already done. paid for. finished. God will give me everything I need. He will provide my words. My actions. My worship. My ministry. In time! Over the journey everything will unveil the way he planned.
I am a son of a provider. A faithful servant. A loving father. I am everything and will equipped but on his timing. not mine. I don’t need to worry, stress, or try to do anything that’s not me. God is going to show me. Lead me. in the way that people need me the most. To share my story. How God rescued me. saved me. redeemed me. picked me.
It’s in the journey that God reveals your true self; through the fire. Its the fire that refines your faith, through the temptations, through the stretching of yourself. You still are a son. son of a papa who wants nothing but for me to serve him. God is a provider and wants me walking, trusting, and honoring him in my words, actions, ministry, and everyday life.
God is saying: Hear Me! Hear Me! You are the son of a king who’s beauty is shown everyday throughout life. Healer. Protector. Your grace is sufficient and is found everyday. In my life through the up’s and downs. Nothing I do will stop your love for me. I don’t need to conform to this world. Be someone I’m not designed to be. I don’t need to be a copy when I’m custom made in a world full of searching.
Don’t build an image that isn’t what God would approve. a reputation that is unworthy of a resurrected father. Rely on him. His hand his on my life. His purpose. His kingdom come, thy will be done. He will see it through it completion.He will not let me down. He is my god, forever and ever. So therefore let the persecution come. Because I know where my hope, strength and destiny lies. I won’t back down. because Jesus he didn’t back down from hanging on the tree for me.
Yes and amen, forever,
Ross Garrett
