Thought I’d share this as it’s very close to my heart right now, especially with what’s going on in our world.
I saw something similar on another social platform.
How many times have you said about bad people or those who’ve done wrong by you, ‘karma!’ Or ‘they’ll get theirs?’
How often do we say ‘I want justice to come for those who do evil things?’
I think it’s human, especially when the acts are so heinous and unspeakable. But when we say those things, are we really forgiving our enemies as God intended? We shouldn’t want wrath on them. We should want them to seek God and ask His mercy because He said vengeance is His. Not ours.
This is a super hard pill to swallow. 🥺❤️🙏🏻
Personally this is the best post I’ve seen on FB in a long time:
Me: Okay, God, here's the thing. I'm scared. I'm trying not to be, but I am.
God: I know. Want to talk about it?
Me: Do we need to? I mean, you already know.
God: Let's talk about it anyway... We've done this before.
God: *waiting patiently, unhurried, undistracted, never annoyed.
Me: Okay. So, I'm afraid I'll do everything I can to protect my family and it won't be enough. I'm afraid of someone I love dying. I'm afraid the world won't go back to what it was before. I'm afraid my life is always going to feel a little bit unsettled.
God: Anything else?
Me: EVERYTHING ELSE.
God: Remember how your son woke up the other night and came running down the hall to your bedroom?
Me: Yes.
God: You were still awake, so when you heard him running, you started calling out to him before he even got to you... remember? Do you remember what you called out to him?
Me: I said, "You're okay! You're okay! You're okay! I'm here."
God: Why did you call to him? Why didn't you just wait for him to get to your room?
Me: Because I wanted him to know that I was awake, and I heard him, and he didn't have to be afraid until he reached the end of the dark hallway.
God: Exactly. I hear you, my child. I hear your thoughts racing like feet down the dark hallway. There's another side to all of this. I'm there already. I've seen the end of it. And I want you to know right here as you walk through it all, you're okay. I haven't gone to sleep, and I won't.
Me: *crying. Can we sit together awhile? Can we just sit here a minute before I go back to facing it all?
God: There's nothing I'd love more.
♥️🙏♥️

Okay, enough with Twatter, what do you say we jump in and work on Q drops? He says future proves past, so I'm going to look through some old ones and see if anything is relevant to what is going on
love how he mentioned 2020 and not 2021. United States Inc. died in 2020 and United States Republic was born 1/1/2021.
