Not Forgotten

When my father and my mother forsake me, then the Lord will take me up- Psalm 27:10

As a Christian, GOD, will lead you down a path that may seem unorthodox to some and completely uncomfortable to you. He does this to test our Faith. It's easy to say that you believe, but it's totally different to step out on Faith and act upon what you say you believe. People will try to persuade you; making you think that you're wrong. They will attempt to guide you in a different direction that they think is best for you. You must stick to your chops and hold on to the truth of what GOD has revealed to you. Only you and you alone know the promises that He has spoken to your heart. It is up to you to trust GOD and to wait on Him. This will cause those same people, whether they be family or friends, to forsake you. But, that's okay. Everyone can't go to the mountain top with you. JESUS only invited John, James, and Peter to the mount where He transfigured right before their very eyes (Matthew 17:1-13)! JESUS also says that He has come to bring a sword and not peace (Matthew 10:34). Following Him and putting Him first in your life will sever relationships. JESUS being your Lord means that what He says goes. Our obedience shows Him that we indeed love Him and trust Him. He knows what is best for us; even when we can't understand it for the time being.

Clarity always comes with retrospect.

You may feel alone and abandoned at times for stepping out on Faith and trusting GOD to move on your behalf, but you're not. GOD is doing the same thing with so many other believers. There are just as many testimonies of believers who have persevered, made it to the other side, and tell their account of how GOD showed up for them. You too will tell your story of how GOD did what He said He would do! You will look back in awe and wonder. Through all of the pain, turbulence, and tears, GOD, was working out the details on your behalf. The entire time, JESUS, has been walking with you, keeping you, and HOLY SPIRIT has been guiding you. You're never alone as GOD'S angels surround you to protect you. You are a child of GOD; royalty unto the King. You are precious in GOD'S eyes and you are never forgotten.

And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose- Romans 8:28
