Plane Trip 4/20/11

4/20/11
Well currently at the moment I am on an airplane with gabriel and we are flying back home to florida. The Holy Spirit has been putting on my mind many new chapters lately. There are so many tests that we each go through and when we realize them, we then try to change ourselves and try to catch ourselves. I have tried this myself, and fail over and over with it. We have to literally give it to God and walk away. The best way I can summarize it is with a child. If we have to take a child to daycare, school, etc and we have to hand over our child no matter how hard it is to do, and just walk away and trust that everything is going to be ok. That is how we need to be with the Lord. We need to literally hand it over and let him work it out and we need to have patience. This trip to Ohio was an eye opener to me, I realized that I can wish and hope but I need to fully trust in God. I have been trying to prepare for weeks for something in my family and I feel like I failed at this trip because it ended short, and there were no results, and more things went wrong that I didn’t even anticipate. It really hurt to see what has happened but it opened my eyes and I believe matured me to see that I never fully gave it to the Lord. I thought I did, but this trip showed me that I didn’t. I did realize however that we need to keep moving forward. If you spend your life trying to fix someone or a problem or try to re-build the past, then we can waste days, weeks and even years when we are really missing out on what God has planned for us. I need to keep praying as a prayer warrior because that is where we can fight for those who cannot fight for themselves. I will keep praying and keep seeking God’s face but most importantly to keep moving forward ahead. It takes too much time and energy to get down and stay in that situation. If it is in our means to remove ourselves from a negative situation, then take that chance and get out of it and try to find the learning experience out of it. People tend to always “write” people off and that is not the right thing to do. It is best to pray for those that do that, and keep praying and seeking and when and if that person comes around, then you are all prayed up and there for that person and enlightened with the right things to say from the Holy Spirit. I felt it was very important to write this message. I have my beautiful baby sleeping next to me on this plane and an amazing loving husband that waits for me at home and I realize that I have a lot more work to do as a wife and a mother, but my God am I going to keep striving to become a better woman and a more christian woman that God wants me to be. So my best advice is FULLY give it to God and most importantly have NO expectations. I will say it again, have NO expectations!! katyRose
