In those seasons between promise and fulfillment so much is tested but mainly the individual ...

A revelation is given... A dream... A vision.... A visitation.... A word...  A hope is birthed and thoughts of happenings are dreamed up but as we learn to walk out time of deliverance of a word versus fulfillment of that word we are confronted by fear and doubt....  


In scripture we read hope deferred makes a heart sick....  


So many various issues swirl....  


There is a person.... There is God...  There is a revelation..... And then there is time....  A promise ....  A hope ....  In those seasons between promise and fulfillment so much is tested but mainly the individual ...


In times of the already and not yet or in other words in the time between revelation and the actual fulfillment one has so many opportunities ...  


Opportunities to trust or to fear... To believe or to doubt .... And everything in between.... Some moments of strength are swapped by times of weakness


As we journey honestly before God and man I think lay opportunities to become and rise up and be all that we are called towards ... 


As we learn the difference between who we are and the gifts that surround ourselves or other individuals  ... Who we are before God and the promises spoken into our lives  we have an opportunity to grasp we are so much more than the gifts or promises....  


That they don't define us nor do they dictate that which we are....  Who we are is set regardless of gift, anointing, calling, or promise....  Those all are over flows of His graces .... Parts of the puzzle but not pictures of the whole


Learning to walk as I am regardless of lot in life ....  Learning to walk as His child and hold lighter and lighter to anything other than Him


While I appreciate all of those things I describe I hunger to walk before Him regardless of the overflow of His graces.... I hunger to walk out my days before Him solely as His
