A new day is dawning . . .after the Perfect Storm!
Beautiful is the dawning of a new day just for me . . . just for you!
The Lord is shifting us out of a hard season and is moving us into a beautiful spring time where we see the flowers and smell their fragrance & even dance again with our Bridegroom King!
Yes we ve been crawling, not knowing what to do….where to go! This gal has been in a cocoon feeling she was gonna die! Then He decided to bring me out in a new place where everything is freedom , a place where life is a spring of joy, a place where I can live, literally abide in a permanent spring time, in the beauty of who He is in a place with twelve months a year fruitfulness (Rev 22)
The Lord showed and spoke to me from Hebrews how The Son is radiance of glory, the exact representation of His being, sustaining ALL THINGS by His Powerful Word. HE showed me & spoke to me how to make me stable & well-kneed for His Dough to spread daily Bread slices! With my eyes fixed on His eyes in beauty I am strong in Him! Why? For it was fitting for whom all things and by whom all things in bringing many sons of glory to make the captain of our salvation perfect through sufferings (Hebrew 2:10) My sufferings I count pure joy!
By now you should know I have come to find and know that God is Enough…Jesus is more than sufficient for this GiG-chick! He is my revealer and Mediator of amazing grace amazing love! He likes me! He loves me! No longer will I beat myself for His grace is poured over me & my life cup & I am drinking from my saucer and dancing on the edge of it perfect! I lie down in His beautiful Presence where His Blood is the Love blanket over me, and right here He has made everything new for this GiG-chick!
HE whispered “ shift into more more more. …” I had to proclaim aloud it is a new day! I m going ahead declaring it afresh right now too, to you reading here. In His Presence He came into my life (your life) with His Beautiful Mystery of Love & trust me He did pull apart that cocoon with me! I pressed to emerge, He pressed to enter in . . .release came and GiG-chick is flying again like a little butterfly full of His glory His Love!
I had to push the press button for it s a new day! I had to emerge from my cocoon and see that springtime surely did arrive! SJOE, how wonderful just how fragile He could make me, yet I found myself beautiful, soaring – free, so delicate, yet He made me a flame of fire where I just burn for His soaring to be His soaring light bulb in a dark world! Oh His passionate love is burning a flame inquenchable within me never to be extinguished!
I am free to dance! “ just dance” He said in The Perfect Storm (I thought: “ Lord this is nuts but I ll dance & glad I did dance right through it…” ) Have to admit at the time He said this to me I could not even walk or run never mind dance but by faith I did it! As I danced on I found one day healing was flowing in me through me unto Him to be used one more time for His glory working out for my good!
I have to admit whilst I was in this cocoon it almost felt as if I was missing His voice . . .there were voices & sounds other than His that made me hide even deeper in that cocoon! Then Suddenly I heard His voice again, a sound I love oh so heavenly popped the popcorn in my ear yummy! His Word for me was oh so beautiful oh so magical just for me at the given moment in time . . .
So here I am GiG-chick today! I m healthy ! I m alive! I m whole! I m full & I dance!!! Dance Dance Dance!!!
God wants us to celebrate Life celebrate Love! Every part of life and love He gives us He wants us to enjoy and celebrate! He has taken me into a deeper place of freedom where I hear His Voice His Word so clear it breaks me out of the cocoon to dance, it rips me there and then when I hear it! It is my safe place to let God come in and wreck me, I m no longer afraid to let go let God! (say and do it!) For too long in my life I thought I was a cruddy person! He helped me break out that mindset of inability and incapability to one of ability and capability! He lit me on fire with the Holy Spirit to finish my life race in Him through Him unto Him well with excellence in His Excellence! I am free to dance and oh what a beautiful thing this is!!!
Every day in ministry there is crisis crisis crisis crisis but there is also glory glory glory glory!!! Africa I ve come to know does not call for perfect personalities – Africa calls for imperfect perfect love that changes everything and everyone , and that I have in abundance in The One who is Love ! Africa is for those who can swim in the deep waters & GiG-chick has passed the test 110%! I m not drifting away ! The Perfect Storm did not shipwreck me! Everything around me pressed in as I was pressing the press button of my life ship! Sure the conditions worsened threatening to overtake me but it was irony really because right there I was in revival, the Power of God moving me (not others this time, me!) mightily in signs and wonders! Can you imagine my heart! Trying to understand His glory His Power those things that did not seem to fall upon me! All I heard Him whisper was “ you go everywhere in My Presence even if you don’t know where to go just go in My Presence “ My heart my hope my all just clung to God! God is Enough! I just fixed my eyes on Him! My gaze was set on Him alone even when I said “ Lord I don’t understand but just do something right now right here” and He did! When others were ashamed of me, (mmmmmh egskeiding maak jou mos melaats of doen dit really?!) . . . He was never ashamed of me!
I did not want people to know I have been divorced (AGAIN ….2nd time...) but then one day He said to me “ I Am not ashamed of you why are you”? HE bowled me over with Hebrew 2:11-13 “ For both He who sanctifies and those who are being sanctified are all of me (FATHER) for which reason He is not ashamed to call them brethren saying “ Tania I will declare your name to My Brethren, in the midst of the assembly (church oh really?! I had to smile and wave. . .)….I will sing praise to You and agan I will put my trust in Him and again Here am I behold the children whom God has given me!” at that exact point in time in the Perfect Storm I knew I m not only called I m chosen Handpicked for a time such as this whatever!
Jesus is not ashamed to call those being made holy and the ones in making of becoming holy by His Hand , He is not ashamed to call their names out aloud in one breath! In fact He calls them brothers not saints sinners . . .. He does not separate them in Love levels & church ranks of rejection! Jesus died and sufferered for me and you both to die and live on One Single Cross!!! Hello!!!Get it church PS! I can love Him youcan love Him whatever no matter what! You and I never are afar off from Him! Hear His Heart through my broken jar of clay life and finish well with me!
He gave me rest. He gave me nothing to be ashamed of. For once I found my rest in The Lord the way HE intended resting in Him to be. Yep He knows our frame let me tell you! Let me tell you straight, us whom He has brought home from under bridges of this life, broken women, men, young people…guess what?!? US He chose to become the carriers of His Presence for His Glory Crown ! Us He chose to become His daily messages to a broken world, we feed, we clothe, we care for physical needs not only spiritual needs!!! (church take note PS) He took us on as His own and now we take Him on as our own!
God knows where you are (stuff others opinions who think they know but know nothing!) He knows the kind of suffering you re facing! He is awake alive able my friend you hold on with every breath you ve got in The Perfect Storm! He will hold you the way He held me ( will always hold me) in the midst of life s storms! He will nurture you as people can never nurture! He will allow you to weep in His arms as much as HE wants you to rejoice soar take flight!
We are His kids! His Family! There He is . . . on the Horizon of The Perfect Storm! Run the water into His open arms not pointing finger! Oh man the day I meet Him face to face full glory in full glory I wanna be able to say to Him “ Here I am I have finished well I did not fall apart, I did not break down, in the midst of sufferings and The Perfect Storm! I fixed my eyes on You and here I am now Lord God, me and all the children You have given me!”
Love you all to life for life with love love love, in Him who is Life & Love!
VIVA LIFE VIVA LOVE!!!
