As
we are entering month 5 of ministry here on the World Race, God keeps revealing
more to me. Things that He showed me and things that He has told me months ago
are starting to all come together and make sense.
I
realize that as I continue to do God’s will and obediently follow him to each
country He has called me to, He has been and will continue to place certain
people in my life. He has already prepared their hearts for this meeting and He
has a perfect plan for each and every one of them. Even when I don’t see the
big picture, I have full confidence and trust knowing that God does and HE is
in FULL control of their lives.
I
am going to and have already seen things and experienced things and in those
times will want to and have wanted to take the people that I have met and
rescue them from the life they were living or the hurt they were feeling. But
God has consistently reminded me that I am to just BE… I am to BE a part of the
kingdom. He didn’t call me to go around the world changing people’s lives on my
own, taking away their hurt, pain, suffering, sin, destructive habits and
lifestyles. He called me to BE a part of it and to BE a part of what HE is
doing in their lives.
Because
I am a burden bearer and feel things on an extremely intense level at times, it
is so easy for my flesh to want to take over and rescue people from the
situations they are in. But then I am reminded that there is nothing that I can
do to help or change their situation. How dare I think that I could be the one to rescue these people. How dare I let my own
flesh get in the way of our ever faithful and trustworthy Father and what HE is
already doing.
I
am called to BE a part of what God is doing in each and every one of these
peoples’ lives. Now that I have seen, I can NOT be silent. I carry the hope and
light of Jesus Christ and I am called to share that with those around the
world.
As
much as my flesh wants to cry out at times and as much as I want to use my own
strength and willpower to help those who are suffering… I am constantly
reminded..
“BE still and know that I am God..” ~
Psalm 46:10
honored I am to BE a part of HIS kingdom….to have been chosen and to have been
called ….
to
just BE.
