The past few weeks have been plagued by a lot. In fact, more than a few weeks if I'm being honest. The past months have been a lot for my soft girl aesthetics. I have cried, wept, prayed, rejoiced, lost hope and found faith all together.
And if I’m going to be honest with myself, all the rollercoaster of emotions was because of me being my source for most things. I was the planner, strategic supervisor, vision maker, mood board designer and all things I need not be doing as God's baby girl.
I spent most of my time restructuring the burden I was meant to cast on Jesus, I was most times collecting the burden back and letting external situations judge my mood/vibe. But not again oh ... I refuse to be slave to my situation. I consciously choose to trust, it might not always be easy, and the path might not always be straight, smooth or even clear.
But I will bask in the fact that I am not alone. I can never be alone. Because if God be for me; WHO! (I hear nothing) can be against me. Absolutely no one.
“So, what do you think? With God on our side like this, how can we lose? If God didn’t hesitate to put everything on the line for us, embracing our condition and exposing himself to the worst by sending his own Son, is there anything else he wouldn’t gladly and freely do for us? And who would dare tangle with God by messing with one of God’s chosen? Who would dare even to point a finger? The One who died for us—who was raised to life for us!—is in the presence of God at this very moment sticking up for us. Do you think anyone is going to be able to drive a wedge between us and Christ’s love for us? There is no way! Not trouble, not hard times, not hatred, not hunger, not homelessness, not bullying threats, not backstabbing, not even the worst sins listed in Scripture: They kill us in cold blood because they hate you. We’re sitting ducks; they pick us off one by one. None of this fazes us because Jesus loves us. I’m absolutely convinced that nothing—nothing living or dead, angelic or demonic, today or tomorrow, high or low, thinkable or unthinkable—absolutely nothing can get between us and God’s love because of the way that Jesus our Master has embraced us.”
