A Season of Giants

Ecclesiastes 3: 1 
To Every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:


I had to battle a few "giants" recently; sometimes past hurts stay with us, for a very long time, until we release them to God; we may have to dress for battle and go through many emotions, in order to let go and come out victorious. The 'season' will change and we will, too.

My particular situation was brought on by myself - no one else. Losing connections with those who play a huge, important part in my life has not been an easy thing to deal with. But, God has shown Himself so true, even in the midst of my anger, hurt, grief, denial, and acceptance, of the entire situation. Once I moved thru all of the emotions, I finally said, "Thank you, Lord, for not leaving me".

He is just waiting for us to move closer to Him, and sometimes that move is extremely hard, but well worth it, in the end. But, like His Word says, "ALL THINGS work together for good to them that love Him and are called according to His purpose" (Romans 8:28) and He is standing by with open arms.

My battle, not only got alot out of my system, but allowed me to sit at Jesus' feet, and cry! I have to say, at one point, I couldn't even pray, I just cried. But, again, this is just another wonderful thing about our Lord and Savior -He knows our heart even when we don't know what words to say. So, never give up, just pour out your heart (and your tears), for He cares for you more than you can imagine.

I give God all the Glory and Honor, each and every day, that He gives me the opportunity to fellowship with Him. Seasons come and Seasons go - but God's love will last forever!

This Season of Facing My Giants - God provided the "sling and the stone"!
(1 Samuel 17)

Philippians 4:13  "I can do ALL things through Christ which strengthens me"
