“Come here.”
Here.
He does not say “go there, I am over there.”
He says “Come here,” “Go up onto the mountain and BE on the mountain:So many times I think I am responding to His call, I think I am dwelling in His presence, and I am really one hundred other places.
He says:
“Be STILL and know that I am God.”
He is asking me to be present, to live in this current moment, to rest in Him, to be still.“Come here.”
…”Here I am”
O Christ, do not give me tasks equal to my powers, but give me powers equal to my tasks, for I want to be stretched by things too great for me. I want to grow through the greatness of my tasks, but I shall need your help for the growing.
—Prayer for the Journey- E. Stanley Jones
We are all a little weird and life’s a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love.

God owns time.. and He has everything in His perfect timing…
It is true that it is hard to look beyond our circumstances and to see how things will unfold. But through all of this “pruning” I have been going through with the Lord, I know he has been holding my hand every step of the way…
Although God rarely shared his reasons on why He allow things to happens us and experience the pain and brokenness, He ALSO knows the date-the hour and those precise time when the agony would end. And through all of the sufferings, He knows what is in store when it’s over. Everything doesnt make sense right now, but I know one day every little piece of the puzzle will fit perfectly.
God’s promises that when we search for Him with every ounce of our energy, we will find Him.
And when we trust HIM, and I mean TRULY trust Him, He shows us more than what we can imagine. :)
God has a PLAN. :)

despair not this is only a vapor. I am an eternal dwelling deep within your very being. You were spoken into light to be a shinning star and more bright than all the glistening lights. I will cover you with My feathers and under My wings you will find refuge; My faithfulness will be your shield…
