move forward

i was SERIOUSLY blessed last night at Hillsong London. Israel Houghton ministered and when i say God's timing is amazing, i really mean it. From the whole process of how i ended up there in the first place to the message that i received when i was there was just God all over... Israel shared part of his testimony, which i won't repeat except for a line from which im adopting... "we have to cross the road"... iv been wanting to go on mission for the longest time - probably since may last year, ive had it on my heart. and then like a tonne of bibles it hit me that my mission field is actually where i am. i dont have to wait till im abroad or have a translator, or in a remote village somewhere no one has heard of. im here for a reason and its time to take my stand and claim the territory God has given me. my mission may be just as simply as crossing to the other side of the road and share something with anyone.

During one of Israel's songs yesterday i was reminded of a scene from the Passion of the Christ. there is a part where Jesus falls and has his head crushed by the cross. Mary is standing on the side and then rushes to try and help him as she flashbacks to how she did so when he was a boy. when she approaches him and tries to lift him, he responds inspirationally by saying, "I make all things new," before continuing to carry the cross ... the other day i was so depressed, it came from taking my eyes of my Lord and looking at my situations. but its not even about whats goin on right now, God's plan will come to pass and even though i may be on my second (or even 382nd lol) chance, God is so faithful to restore and recover all that was broken or lost. and with that in mind here is where my new page begins. its not just a new year, i have a daily fresh 24 hours to get through and be accountable for, and my only option is to move forward.



The journey continues
