Let Go, It's Not Your Source!

"As this day has been made for a perfect time such as this. I thank you father for the gift of experience that you provided to me for my growth in you. This is my good news to tell everyone who will hear with understanding that this shall not return void."


My story started about a week ago from this day on a Monday morning. I am unemployed at this monent and that morning was my appointment time to call for an unemployment check. Well that morning I was working on something that had my attention durning my scheduled hour. Now mind you that I haven't miss this time before as I would write the time down and/or set my alarm to remind me. Well this time I left my confidnence in the things that I have always done. Now, my rent was do on that week and it would be late after the 5th of November. It would have worked out the way I planned it if I had called in on my scheduled time for the money. I would have paid my rent on the 4th of the month and everything would have been in order with no worries. Well on that Monday morning I realized I missed my scheduled time and that's when my frustrations begin. Since it looks like I will be late, because I didn't keep my appointment time I will have to pay an extra 50 dollar late fee. So that monday evening I had decided that I wouldn't worry about when I will get this money, all though my thoughts reflected on this worry more then it should have. I prayed that night and thanked God for who he is. That Tuesday morning I asked someone else for the money to see if I can pay my rent on time, even though I felt that it was out of order to be asking someone else. It turned out they didn't have the money, which put me back into that same thought process I was the day before. I was debating on asking other people for help but I didn't feel that I should go that route again. I thought about another idea, I had some funds in my rent bank account I could to help pick up the slack when it came to the late fee and the extra money that would be need for the rent. But worry thinking started to show it's face, as I was thinking about next month and the one after that. If I used the rent bank account to pay some of my rent each month so I can kick more in my pocket. What am I to do know, if I use this money I won't be able to keep up with my rent payments. By this time I had just made it up in my mind that I will be late this month and I will be paying this late fee. As I was doing some of my meditation in the evening I was seeking some Word of peace from thoughts at that moment. After I meditated that evening, I heard God tell me, "Let Go, That is not your Source!" After I heard him speak to me I had the confidence that I was looking for. I spoke to myself and sought after my belief system to reflect that of the spoken Word of God to me. Now for the next two days I felt more confident that it will work out in a perfect way and in perfect timing. I just didn't know how nor did I know when. So I went throughout these two days doing my daily routines and seeking after more expereiences with Christ, then I had the day before. (Whoa I'm smiling and impressed about this story as I'm typing this, whether it's as small as a mustard seed or as big as a mountain the Power of God is always at it's BEST!)


YES! NOW LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT MY TESTIMONY


It was LATE in the evening on the 5th day ( mind you in my story my rent would considered late if paid after the 5th day) I was sitting down watching television and got up to take a shower. It was after 7:30pm and when I got into the shower I started talking to myself (although I can't remember what I was talking about this time) and in this conversation I said the word "Check" I said again "Check!", my eye popped opened and I said oh my Lord! That's it a check I can write them a check. That will allow me some time as the funds would guaranteed to be in my account on the 7th. And that 7th was a Saturday and I wouldn't have to pay a late fee. Wow! Wow! After I took my shower I went and found the checks to write out my rent payment. Now the reason this meant so much to me regarding the checks is. I DON'T care to use checks nor do I think about them when it comes to make a payment of any kind for anything. I was SO excited of my revelation of Christ in this experience and I got out into my car to take the money up to the main office. I dropped it in their mailbox and the time was after 9pm on the 5th night!


I WAS ON TIME! That next morning I got up to do my AM meditation and as I was meditating I heard Christ say to me, "I told you I would take care of you." WoW!


This experience has defined another part of who I am as I'm learning that even the smallest thing we think doesn't have a hold on us. It can be shown to have the most hold on you. I take this saying to heart even the more," Let Go and Let God". Reminds me of the scripture of the Widow women and Elijah 1 Kings 17:10 - 20 when he asked her "what does she have in her house?"



I have learned just as the Widow women learned that God will use the closet things around you to strengthen you in the storm. As the saying goes, " He doesn't come when you want him to, but when he does it will be RIGHT on TIME! Hold strong to what he has told you and you to will grow in your experience of Life. So that when you get to the other side of the storm you will not have to repeat it again, in the same way you did before. So dont' worry in the storm, Praise Him in a storm for it has come to take you to your next level. Jesus has taught us, "If we want to be like Christ, he will help us, but if we don't want to be like him, he will wait until our minds are changed."
