I had a few minutes today to visit some of my favorite blogs... you know, the ones that always encourage you.
While I was there visiting and really considering my response to
Holley Gerth's simple, yet powerful post of
You're Seen a very recent and fresh seasoned response came forth to finish the statement of
"We'll See..."
This arose from a crossroad I found myself at just a day ago. This truth that I unmistakeably met with eye to eye assured me, without any doubts, that a choice had to be made. Which route was I going to take? Was I going to continue to believe lies (as I had in this area for many years) or the truth? I heard the truth, the healthy path of travel. Although, it hurt in the flesh just thinking of the process I would have to go through that led to my deliverance and healing. I do have the freedom to choose though, and the enemy would love for me to take his shortcut- the one that
appears to be the easy one... the one that leads to many forms of death.
I chose life- to walk that path with Him, by faith and not sight- knowing that His love, and grace will surely lead me to victory, for His glory! Here is my response to the phrase
We'll See... visit Holley's blog and share how you'd finish this statement.
We'll see... if our deepest cries to be unconditionally loved and accepted- the ones that we can so easily and unfairly place on our spouses to meet without even thinking. Where the raw emotions begin to stir with the help of our soul's enemy who fuels the ungodly fire within when we choose to allow the words to start flying- lashing back and forth. Tearing down one another when we really want to build each other up!
I do believe we'll see when we get just one glimpse of the revelation of Perfect LOVE - HIS perfect love for us... and then, and only then… when we are equipped with that powerful truth, that no lie can stand up to, will we be able to set our spouses free from the unfair cages we have kept them in from an unmet need that they were never intended to meet.
How faithful is our God! How far and wide and deep is His perfect love for us! His grace is amazing… and the forgiveness, deliverance, and healing HE offers us all is complete. HIS love bridges every gap and is truly without any lack.
Ephesians 3:14-21:
For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.
