It’s always a special moment when I can pick up on the Lord speaking to me, small whispers and thoughts. Each one I treasure and make note about because I am so incredibly grateful that the Creator of everything is choosing to speak to me in that specific moment.
One occurrence was this past week at my church’s Wednesday night service as the holy spirit was pounding through the place. I asked God for something… anything, I just wanted more of His presence. A song was playing and the oh so familiar verse of “I’ve seen you move, move the mountains, and I believe I’ll see you do it again” was being blasted into the air. This song has always brought to mind a very hard season of my life and how God brought me out of it; however, that night the Lord revealed to me something new.
What came to mind when I was praying was a calendar with the months before the summer started to now. The Lord then showed me who I was at the begging of the summer and the drastic change of who I have become. I stood there in disbelief, unable to stop smiling. It’s true, I am a completely different Nina than I was in the month of May. The mountain God moved? It was me. I was my biggest obstacle yet… Transitioning into a completely different mindset and using the Lord’s unwavering guidance to do so is how I am so completely transformed.
God’s grace, love, forgiveness… it has all captivated me and created an environment that is safe and prospering. Early this year the Lord, taking my hand, looked me in the eyes and asked “Do you want to come with me?” and I haven’t let go sense. I know He won’t.
Seeing how fast I started to grow and what can be done with God next to me has brought me so much joy. I know I have so much further to go and it may feel like a climb opposed to a walk with God at times, but I am okay with that… even a little excited to see how He can move. I know I will be so changed in who I am even by the time of this trip, and after it all I can’t even imagine. I am ready to give up who I think I am again to become who He wants me to be.
