My View from "The Chair" this morning - Psalm 143:8. Laying in bed this morning, my eyes fell across this scripture. Closing my eyes, I pondered the simplicity of this. Listen. Trust. Walk. Sounds easy. Sounds doable. Then, as if someone had given my brain a jolt of an energy drink, my consciousness woke up and sent a hurricane of convoluted thoughts and doubts exploding across my mind. This left me just wanting to pull the covers up and disappear back into sleepland. Does this ever happen to anyone else? The battle was intense.
My View From "The Chair" - Exodus 14:13,14. Recently, okay two nights ago at 11:30 pm, I received a text from "The Precious One" saying that they were being told to slit their wrists and die. There was lots of intense drama going on where they were at. It felt like I was facing some super impossible circumstances. It felt like someone was going to loose it and murder the other one. I was starting to play the "What if" game in my head. Fear was knocking on the door of my mind and running around sticking it's ugly face in the windows of my heart. It would've been so easy to give in and allow the paralyzing fear and angst to wash over me.
My view from "The Chair" this morning - Romans 8:38,39. Look! Look! Look! I read this over and over and over this morning. Honestly, I am blown away at the truth right here in front of me. I've read it before. In fact, if I was honest, I've read it many, many times but today it reached out and literally grabbed me.
My view from "The Chair" this morning - Ecclesiastes 7:13. Even though I know better, I often try to "Straighten" things out in my life. It must be my human tendency to want things congruent, straight and inline. Life just isn't like that. I think God knew when the fall happened that we would forever be wanting to "Straighten" things out. Things like: Our path; Our story; Our experiences. We would want control.
My view from "The Chair" this morning! Psalm 139:1-5. Our Creator can be trusted. His view is completely untangled. Just whisper to Him that you trust His timing and plan for your life. Do not fear, He sees you and He's got you!
My view from "The Chair" this morning (Psalm 138:8). Truth that I can trust regardless of what my physical eyes see or I feel.
My view from "The Chair" (Jonah 2:10). If God can make a donkey talk and a "fish" (whale) swallow a man, I'm pretty sure He will guide your steps on this globe if you ask Him to.
My view from "The Chair" this morning (Eph 2:10). Wow!! YOU and I are masterpieces! He made us perfectly for His purposes, not ours! Maybe when we are discontent with ourselves, it's because we trying to live a different plan other than His plan. He is our Creator! You can trust His untangled view! His plan is perfect (yes, even in the pain).
