He's talking to you!
This past month in India, I have been battling out my future.
Should I do this or should I do that?
Should I go here or should I go there?
I know I don't NEED answers to my questions but it's nice to know.
I have thought about what city I would love to move to in the past but I thought that it was just because my brother lived there. And I don't want him to think I'm following him! But I was journaling one day early in the month and I just had to write a side note. "Charlotte, NC." When I wrote that down it just made since.
At the end of the month we were walking through the streets heading to a dinner and fellowship. It was hot and draining. I was tired of walking and standing and not having a clue as to what we were actually doing. I cried out to God, "just give me a ranch next month!" Gods reaction: "Brooke, don't be silly, you are getting your ranch." I couldn't do anything but laugh at myself.
After hearing this and getting words from my team mates everything all made since.
I will have a ranch in Charlotte. I will search and rescue lost women and children and prostitutes. I will take them in as family. Give them health care. Educate them. Let the women learn whatever they want (I love learning but can't ever pick the one thing to study so I will learn as they learn and help them.) Everyone living in the house will train stray dogs. We'll grow crops and have chickens for a good portion of the food. Horses will be used to make money but most importantly to give therapy to special needs.
What I realized at our last team time was this:
After I heard about the ranch, we had fellowship. I was the one giving the word. I had two words to pick between; both in Jeremiah. I choose to do the one on chapter 29. God owns time. He knows the pain we are going through. He also knows the exact time the pain will end. It doesn't stop there. God also has plans for us.
I realize that I am heading into a huge grieving season. I don't know what kind of pain I will go through but I know that it will end on Gods time. I also know that God has huge plans for me. Plans that I am in no way capable of completing without him.
Now what does all this mean?
GOD has FAITH in ME!
I find it weird that God has faith in me because shouldn't it be the other way around?
For him to know that I have faith in him!?
