Rise Above!

“Good morning Lord! I came here this morning with an emotional limp. I have decided to look away from it and seek you for all. Now I forgive, myself first, then another. Now I choose your better way and maturity with healing. Now I choose to rise above and be your daughter. Now I choose the life you have for me. Now I choose that abundant life you paid of. Now I choose you Jesus! I choose you!” As I spoke more and more the Lord began to laugh with joy!

‘You turned my morning into dancing!” “Yes I did. That is what happens when you look to me and let go!” “Hallelujah!” I have laughed then cried from joy. What an unexpected relief. I am gonna breathe in this moment a while. Once again the Master Gardener has surprised me with delight. I sing: “I’m yours Lord, everything I have…” “Let us continue our work in the garden Krista. There is much pruning needed, follow my lead, I will show you.” “Yes Lord!” And we set back to work.

Ecclesiastes 3:11 He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts, except that no one can find out the work that God does from beginning to end.

It took some more struggle and wrestling as the morning went on. Pruning has been done and clarity has come. Life changes and the Master Gardeners help is needed to begin again, new. I had to stay close all day for I could not tell on my own what needed the pruning and how to let go! It is more than trusting in him, it has been trusting his plan too!
