It is the weirdest feeling: feeling lonely, but yet wanting to be alone. I think it’s because some people draw from your energy but don’t necessarily pour back. So you feel weary and want to be alone, but also desire the presence of someone who doesn’t only draw out.Â
Thank you anyway for your filling presence. Thank you for today and for your healing. I pray for Cap. I’m not sure what is going on, but you do. Heal and restore and may he live the way you desire of him.Â
I was aiming to go camping tonight, but just got corralled to do something by the parents. So I am home tonight but honestly I’m feeling a distinct itch to be outdoors. So many things in the world can truly wear out the soul.Â
TODAY’S THANKFUL TALLY
- The reminder that I need to separate.
- That Cap is doing okay.
- That you still love me.
CONFESSION: Today did not feel like a peaceful day. Even on “busy” days, I still feel at peace most of the time. Today I did not. Yahweh, I pray for your spirit to cleanse and restore me, to be one with you.Â
When your body just feeling so tired that you don’t even want to move a finger. I know I’m moving my hand but barely. I suspect that I will be early, early to bed tonight. Lol. Made Dad buy dinner tonight.🙈
Joel 2:25-27 – “Then I will repay you for the years that the mature locusts, the adult locusts, the grasshoppers, and the young locusts ate your crops. (They are the large army that I sent against you.) You will have plenty to eat, and you will be full. You will praise the name of the Lord your God, who has performed miracles for you. My people will never be ashamed again. You will know that I am in Israel. I am the Lord your God, and there is no other. My people will never be ashamed again.
I went looking for a recipe for breakfast and found this scripture instead. It’s truly an encouragement, but you know what struck me? “They are the large army that I (Yahweh) sent against you.”
So many times we want to believe that all the “bad” things are from Satan and all the “good” from Yahweh. But since Yahweh doesn’t view things the way we do, we really need to change our perspective. Yahweh sent the army: not to destroy me, but to mould me. To prepare me. But everytime, he restores. He doesn’t leave us there, he restores.Â
