Isaiah 45:2

"I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight: I will break in pieces the gates of brass, and cut in sunder the bars of iron."

Thank you Jesus for this word of encouragement in this season of my life. Thank you for setting me free so I can truly worship you in Spirit and in truth and SERVE you with gladness of heart.


THANK YOU!

Dearest Friends/Readers,

My deepest apologies for not having written for such a long time.

To be quite honest, I let someone's opinion about a blog I wrote stop me from writing. 

Yes.

I was so hurt by what they said and I felt that if they knew or truly cared about me, they would know that I am sensitive and somewhat insecure when it comes to "Is my writing good enough?"

I will try not to blame the person too much, but I am trying to convey to you how deeply this person's statement/comment hurt me. I re-did the blog (so it was no longer raw) so that it was a nicer, more sugar-coated version of what really happened to me, and that experience left me bitter and caused tension in the relationship even though I interacted with them on a daily basis.

What am I trying to say here folks?

I'm trying to say that people who don't TRY understand you, what you're about, where you've come from, who you are now and where you are going will be quick to preach or advise you on matters that they know nothing about. 

AND GUESS WHAT??

THAT'S OKAY!!!

Because YOU know what you're about, YOU know what God's will is for your life and YOU are the one who will have to carry the cross, not them.

So as my jamaican friends would say

"Nuh bodda wid dem business. Juss gwan fi yeself"

So I would now like to take this time to write a letter of apology for myself.

Dearest Lady M,

I am so very deeply and utterly sorry that someone you trusted, cared for, loved, appreciate, respected made a hurtful, unkind, unthoughful comment about your writting. I believe that it is because they did not realize or understand what your insecurities are, and how hard it already has been for you to muster up the courage to write in your blogs.  

All I can say to you cherie is that I'm glad that you've decided to get back up again and continue fighting this battle.

I am so proud of you cherie.

You have come quite far.

And guess what? This is just the best part; THE BEGINNING of the journey!

Time and Jesus on your side has helped to heal this wound so that it does not fester and affect other parts of your life.

Jesus loves you cherie, and He will never let you stay for too long in the miry clay or waiting on the poolside for 30+ years waiting for healing.

He loves you cherie and He wants you to learn to see yourself the way He sees you.

Remember to pray and forgive that person over and over again if ever the pang of hurt comes up again. And of course you know the devil will try and throw this back up in your face but  guess what? IT'S ALREADY UNDER THE BLOOD OF JESUS!

Congratulations cherie.

Welcome to the next level of faith.

I admire your passion, your tenacity, your lovingkindness towards those who you consider your enemies, and I know that you are not like this of your own unction. I know that JESUS has done and IS doing a wonderful work in you.

He has taken you out of the darkness and into the light. From a low place, onto higher ground. From sinking sand to solid ground.

Give Him all the honour that is due cherie, for HE is worthy. HE is Jehovah-nissi, the one who FIGHTS on behalf of YOU (because He CHOOSES to)

How blessed and highly favoured are you that He would take time to fight all these battles for you?

You can't say now that you don't know how much God loves, and even if you still need confirmation or a reminder, it's already in your spirit and you know where to go to remind yourself.

In the name of Jesus,

be BLESSED young lady,

 be BLESSED in the name of Jesus!

Grow, blossom, emerge from your cocoon, come out from under your juniper tree, come forth as a young lady and a young woman, and EXERCISE your faith in He who is ALPHA AND OMEGA.

Step into what YOU know God is calling you to be and do!

Jesus has already won the victory for you when He said "It is finished"

So without further ado,

GO GET 'EM TIGER

Lots of love,

the love that resides within you,

Mbula Mutheu Enobong (April 10th 2014)
