Why I uncovered my Hair.
Obeying God,
In month two I had a conversation with God about my traditions. I asked him if there is anything that I hold on to verses choosing him first. He said, yes. I asked wait, what? What is it?? He said, your head covering you hold pride in. I was like yes I do, I have something that others don’t have. I was like there is no way I’m letting go of my head covering. It would be an disappointment to many many people. I can’t do this. God gave the choice of choosing what I want to do. So after talking with family and friends I just kinda let it go, I put it on the back shelf still thinking about it randomly when God nudged me. After wrestling for a few weeks about it. I had a talk with a sister from Love Story about it and what God told her to share with me is that at this season he is asking you to let go. He is asking you will you choose me first or other people or things???
My answer is I choose God! So I am letting go of my head covering in this season. I want to be obedient to God in all seasons of my life!
It was not easy. But great things don’t come easy. God is with me every step of the way.
Later, after letting go. God gave me this revelation. “The people ask you about your culture and not about your God.” It makes sense. I will not stop here. I will continue to seek, trust, and obey the Lord!
