Not just in the yet to come.... what can it look like

A few days ago while on a news website I went to this video and within it was the tale of these people in great need.... great need of physical healing... and the pictures won't leave me alone.....

I'm not about to jump into works of the flesh because I have seen some pictures of people in great need.... But I am about to jump into a journey even more of sitting at my Father's feet..............

You know this past Sunday I walked through this experience where (not giving him credit ) but where the enemy that is the lion that looks for who he can try to devour roared into my person .... uhm... not literally so much... and yet the picture I get is of me standing in front of this crazed lion who is roaring and wind is blowing out of his mouth and the gust of it is hitting me as I stand in its fury........... key word... STAND..... and it comes and it goes.. and it went................... and still I stand..... and yet since then while I have walked through the echos of that roar and had to deal with the sound of them.. I have watched my Father as He has arisen upon that scene.... and has not only placed Himself between that roar and His child but has then shown Himself strong in oh so very many ways................

Our Kingdom and Our God are incredible... They are firm and strong and reliable... Our God is that He is.... and there is nothing that can affect that.............. I rest solidly in that..... I rest solidly in the knowledge that my God and my King and my Father and My Savior IS.......................

I rest there and stay there and pursue that which that reality of His rule and His reign upon the earth in the now not just in the yet to come can look like.....

One of my Favorite Narnian Quotes...

“One word, Ma’am,” he said, coming back from the fire; limping because of the pain. “One word. All you’ve been saying is quite right, I shouldn’t wonder. I’m a chap who always liked to know the worst and then put the best face I can on it. So I won’t deny any of what you said, even so. Suppose we have only dreamed, or made up, all those things – trees and grass and sun and moon and stars and Aslan himself. Suppose we have. Then all I can say is that, in that case, the made-up things seem a good deal more important than the real ones. Suppose this black pit of a kingdom of yours is the only world. Well, it strikes me as a pretty poor one. And that’s a funny thing, when you come to think of it. We’re just babies making up a game, if you’re right. But four babies playing a game can make a play-world that makes you real world hollow. That’s why I’m going to stand by the play-world. I’m on Aslan’s side even if there isn’t any Narnia. So, thanking you kindly for our supper, if these two gentlemen and the young lady are ready, we’re leaving your court at once and setting out in the dark to spend our lives looking for the Overland.

A Brilliant Quote from Marianne Williamson

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate,

but that we are powerful beyond measure.

It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.

We ask ourselves, "Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?"

Actually, who are you not to be?

You are a child of God.

Your playing small does not serve the world.

There is nothing enlightening about shrinking

so that others won't feel unsure around you.

We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.

It is not just in some of us; it is in every one.

As we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
