It is so important to spend time waiting before the Lord. This allows time for you to be changed simply by His hand. Waiting before the Lord teaches you patience. The Lord may choose to teach you about what is going to happen in the future (prophecy), or he may shift around the core threads of who you and bring forth desires for you to suddenly want something else or a new standard. Waiting before the Lord is core to moving forward with God. He wants a relationship with you. One in which you make an actual decision to spend time waiting/meeting Him.
The Lord changes your heart-stringed desires as he continues to reshape and remold you. Just like the Potter is constantly reshaping His clay to make it more pure and larger to take in more water, so shall you also be changed. PRESS into His desires and GIVE your parts of your heart to Him, slowly as He asks for them. Watch as He teaches you a new thing or a deeper outlook on a previously set angle. Watch Him work and be patient as He changes the cards of a puzzle around you to look different, yet Godly. Pour more of you out, so He can pour more of Himself in. Set TIME for this process; this doesnt just come.
Allow yourself to be changed. Trust God enough to let Him change you. It can be hard to let anyone in (yes, including God) to revolutionize your life or even change you in the slightest, but through Godly strength (note, this strength truly is Godly....you must feel it in your Spirit and soul to trust Him) you will become a new creation.
If you want to make a difference in the world or if you want to move forward in ANYTHING, this is the process you must take. There is a plan here, and God is asking you to be part of it. For this to happen though, you must be willing to follow Him anywhere. Follow Him anywhere as in give up all of who you are to Him for Him to shine His glory through you. There is a plan here. Let's wait to see what He has in mind.
So what is He doing in your life? Why dont you see things from a Godly perspective 100% yet? This comes through prayer. God desires to make us 100% feeling individuals. God TRULY wants to wake us up from what we consider living and allow us to "really live". God wants us to feel ALL of our emotions to truly experience life. Life is a gift, and God wants us to enjoy it in His heart.
Goodness, what is God doing in my life next?
