Last Night The Clouds Were Dark Like Rainstorm Clouds But This Is What I Captured In Between A Break Only For A Few Short Minutes. That Is How It Works In Life Too.

Are you in the midst of a storm in your life? Ride out the storm and in the midst of that very storm Holy Spirit gives you glimpses of hope, restoration and the love of God. You have to be willing to capture these moments in time. They are there but you have to be sensitive to Holy Spirit and reading your bible to capture the glimmers of hope placed right before your very eyes. Challenges in life are like the ebb and flow of the ocean while walking on the beach. When the tide s out it is so much easier to walk in that space of beach. When the water is in that same space of beach you walked on earlier is now occupied by water, it is a bit more of a challenge to walk the same territory. When the water is out to sea sort of speaking you could walk and look down and see if there are any hinderances ahead of you to walk around like a piece of glass or a sharp-edged seashell so as to not step on them to get cut and bring some sort of damage to yourself. When the water is occupying that same piece of beach you then have a bit of resistance walking through the water and unless you are in crystal clear waters you cannot see as easily the hidden dangers you are about to walk on. Does that make sense?

The same in your daily walk with Jesus. Staying in the word of God and hearing Holy Spirit promptings can keep you out of dangerous waters so to speak and can maneuver you in the midst of walking through a trial in your life. Now, the simple way out while walking on the beach is to just move further away from the water when the tide is in, but the same territory will not be walked for you are pushed out further then where you began. It is not such an inconvenience to stay on course just trust Holy Spirit. Why get further away from your divine destiny just because you do not want to be bothered by a slight hiccup in life. It is in those hiccups in life that Holy Spirit plants beautiful gifs and treasures just for you to find. Have the treasures always been there in those very same spots and you just did not notice them before. Sometimes the answer is yes but sometimes those treasures are planted there just for the moment you need them. The choice is do you choose to see them and be blessed by them or not. The other choice is to walk right over them or right past them and not know you just walked on a golden nugget given to you by God to glean in your life.

Why walk around or away from the blessing instead of weathering out the storm to see the glorious break of blue sky in the midst of storm clouds. Simple thought of revelation Holy Spirit shared with me early this morning. I had a choice last evening to either rest on my patio or not after using the hydro massage chair. I felt prompted to sit on the patio. I was mesmerized at the storm clouds moving in then in a really short second something caught my eyes in the sky. I saw a break in the clouds and the brightest robin egg colored blue sky peeked out with the sunlight behind it also. I watched and looked for more of those breaks in the clouds and they were there but only for moments then they were covered over again by the storm clouds. I can honestly say I was thinking to myself the sky is such a beautiful robin egg colored blue I do not recall seeing when looking at the sky when it is blue and no clouds in the sky. It was like it was a heightened coloring of the sky. It was there for anyone to see if they wanted to see it. I saw it and was intrigued by it. Whoever would have thought that that simple act last night would bring forth this beautiful writing this morning. Maybe a contributing factor may just be I watched an old-time movie that was in black and white last night, "Christmas in Connecticut" with Barbara Stanwyck that actually made me laugh out loud a few times. Proverbs 17:22 "A merry heart doeth good like a medicine: but a broken spirit drieth the bones." Do you agree. I think that movie was made before I was even born. Back then they knew how to make movies not like some of the smut out there today that people tend to call movies. Go back to making clean fun movies and you will be glad you did. The pictures I captured last night just do not do justice in capturing the shade of blue I saw with my very own eyes.
