Alot of people keep asking what my last blog meant, and i guess i should explain it. Only i don't know where to start.
I was getting to the point of saying that no matter what, God is God, and God is good. He deserves our praises. So praise Him with everything you have! When you go into church on Sundays and your feeling like your week has gone horrible, you don' have to fake it! Lay your burdens at the foot of God, not to forget about them but for Him to sort through, to heal, to make even that incy wincy bit lighter. Only until you lay them down at Hies feet will you be able to worship Him in the way you were made to do.
Just cause you lay them down doesn't mean that your ignoring them or pushing them aside. It means that your allowing God to reach into your life and alter them. Use them for the better. And guaranteed that if you put them at Gods feet and then just praise God with everything God gave you to praise Him with you will not leave the church on Sundays asking why. You'll leave with a new hope and a foundation to stand on. Doesn't mean it'll be easy, but it'll be worth it.
I had this vision once of a ship in a massive storm. The waves were huge and the ship was getting tossed in every direction. The wind was pushing it away from its direction its heading in, the currents were swirling it in every possible combination of nauseating maneuvers. Eventually the ballister tanks (i think that's what their called) are filled up. In case you don't know what they are their the tanks at the bottom of the ship which fill up with water during storms so that the ship isn't rocked as much. So the ship's ballister tanks are filled up, and the ship can continue heading in the right direction, even though the storm is still going on around the ship.
The point of this vision was to symbolize us. When we're in the storm of life, when we're being tossed and thrown about by the storms we're going through, we need God to come inside us and fill us. We need God to stabilize us. It doesn't mean that the storms of life will cease, but it does mean that we won't be thrown about as much, so we can continue heading in the direction we're supposed to be going in.
I hope that makes sense and sort of explains it!!
Ahhhh I love you Chloe! xx
