A Word

This will all make sense in The End…it’s the coming together of my blog entries, Journey to Us as well as a short story version of the Big thing I asked God for in prayer.

Tonight at church, I received A Word in my spirit that was not only for me but it was for her as well. See, there’s a woman that in my mind, is the person I had to compete with in order to gain you in my life. Years ago, I saw the two of you walking together and I just knew that there were forces greater than me that would keep the two of you together; even though I wanted you to be with me.

Somehow, I knew that should the two of you commit to each other, there would be no way that you’d separate; even if things weren’t the best in your relationship. You would find a way to make it work. Needless to say, from the first day I saw the two of you walking together, I started praying for her and her man – which I deemed wasn’t you because you were mine. Irrational I know, but at the time, I thought I had to fight for you because I couldn’t compete with her for you: she had way more spiritual guidance than I did.

Now on tonight, I got A Word in my spirit that I knew pertained to me as well as her. How did I know this? Because I realized that if those irrational thoughts that I had that said I needed to compete with her plagued me, I’m sure those same thoughts plagued her about me as well. Thereby, keeping the both of us bound and helpless and competing. So, I went to her and gave her the Word that I had been given. She said “thank you” and I went back to my seat.

I’m so glad that on tonight, years of silently competing with her for the attention of you because of the thought of not being good enough for you, pretty enough for you or having the right connections in order to engage life with you, all surrendered to A Word from the Lord.

Word:

It’s not a competition. God knows what He has prepared for you. You don’t have to compete for it.
