Revisitations
I have not been enjoying the past few weeks at all.
Just with life; my coming and going, etc. It's just hard to find the joy, running around, studying for exams, worrying about things, people, even ministry. Where has the
faith gone? I just felt dry; in need of a fresh touch from the Lord.
This season in my life is a season of
revisitations. Just as new wisdom is gained, so do old habits return.
This afternoon in church during worship, I had the revisitation of a vision that I had last year, that I was like a tree planted by the waters (Psalm 1). This is all good, and God's faithfulness once again never failed me, except that
this time, with the nutrient-rich soil by the stream of living water, now there cultivates in the good soil, weeds, which steal and deprive the tree from all these nutrients.
Okay, weeds can't be good. But clearly it seems my life is getting a little distracted, my eyes shifting away from what really matters, even shifting away from God, seeking results without first thinking about the process.
Old lessons all forgotten, so typically human.
LORD I pray that You will continue to be my pillar of cloud by day and pillar of fire by night, that I won't take even a single step ahead of You, nor lag a single step behind.
And a lesson I learnt last year, "Even when we are not ready, He is".
Lord, do Your
thang.
