Stirring And Shaking
Do not fret, as you do not understand what is taking place in your life. Have you not given yourself in reckless abandon to Me? Your life is not your own. You have given it to Me to turn upside down and put back together the way I see fit. Your soul is safe with Me -- your flesh is what I am after. Cling to Me! Grab hold of Me. Read My word when your heart is heavy absorb My promises. I know the plans I have for you --plans to prosper you -- not to harm you. As I turn your life upside down you will feel the rumble, the insecurity, the fight to hold onto what you know, but I say SHAKE IT LOOSE and hold onto Me. I am your sustenance. You will have a tendency to fight with old methods but I say HOLD ONTO MY PROMISES alone! This is a time of stirring and shaking. I am shaking loose what you have built on your own and the dust and debris will go into the mortar that I am stirring to refashion you. Yes, what the enemy has meant for your detriment I will use to strengthen you for My glory. I will re-build you as a mighty fortress and no weapon formed against you shall prosper!
Today's fires develop in us Spiritual muscle to endure tomorrow's flames!
Respectfully,
Ginger Gardner
