Seeing God’s Glory in the Waiting
God is so good!
I had dinner with LD last night, and we had such an awesome conversation! I shared my dream with her, and she offered some great insight.
She pointed out that whatever the rope represents, it’s something only I can see. No one else in the dream saw it moving.
She suggested that it could be something affecting the ministry—maybe even connected to the person who called and hung up on me. But I didn’t recognize the caller as someone I would counsel, and in the dream, I knew I needed to refer him to Tom. So I’m not sure about that interpretation.
Then she asked if I was right-handed. When I said yes, she explained that my left hand could represent a weakness—but the fact that I was able to hold the rope shows that I am gaining strength and control over whatever this is.
That really made me think. What is the rope? Childhood trauma? My marriage? My ministry? None of those quite felt like it. But I know God will reveal it in His perfect timing.
LD also asked if I would mentor her!
How cool is that?? I now have both a mentor and someone who wants me to mentor them!
Thank you, Jesus!
The Word That Speaks to This Season
Today's Hope Journal scripture was John 9-11, which includes some of the scriptures God has given us during this season.
One passage stood out:
"But, Lord," said Martha, the sister of the dead man, "by this time there is a bad odor, for he has been there four days."
John 11:39
I couldn’t help but laugh—our financial situation is getting to the point of stinking! It is beyond our ability to do anything about it. If it is going to turn around, it will take the hand of God to raise it from the dead!
Then, the story of the blind man:
"His disciples asked him, ‘Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?’
"Neither this man nor his parents sinned," said Jesus, "but this happened so that the work of God might be displayed in his life."
John 9:2-3
Jesus keeps reminding us—it’s not about us. This is for His glory.
Are we willing to risk everything to trust Him?
YES!!
I believe You, Lord, and I give all the praise, honor, and glory to You!
Amen.
