That's what my spirit told me. Growing spiritually and walking in love and light will have you feeling like you have to take every single person where God is taking you. Wrong.
God's been showing me that sometimes a blessing is like this big party that He's throwing and you don't always get a plus 1. Often times when you bring someone with you to a party, you inadvertently give that person your attention instead of the event at hand. God won't chance that. He loves you too much not to help you realize your purpose. God will call you apart to come alone, just so he has your undivided attention.
And another thing...
The people along the way that you meet, that you help, that you pour into are all very important but that doesn't mean you spend your time continually connected to them. Your job is to show them God, and let God do the rest. You can't be God. I'm learning unless my spirit leads me to do something, I'm out of order. I (Shardae) can want to pray for someone, I (Shardae) can want to assist with something, but when God says no, I'm acting out of my flesh and connecting to something I'm no longer supposed to be touching.
I was in prayer today and God revealed to me that not everyone allowed in my life will stay there. Often times after the season is over, those people will be released. He said to me, "Have you ever seen a tree mourn it's leaves?" ...and the answer is no. More leaves will come. I will connect with them, but like a tree, I am constantly rooted in God. And as they fall, I must remain rooted and in expectation of the new growth that is about to take place...

Honey Child Listen! This just blessed my life. All year, I was mourning my dead leaves. I couldn't figure out why I was losing so many people in my life, during a very important time in my life. When I began to seek his face, he showed me that this was a time of purification. Throughout my life, I have always tried to take my friends and family on my journey with me. I also put friends on a pedestal. God really showed me how jealous he is for me, and how He is number one in every part of my life. I was too busy mourning what I lost, that I didn't notice the new leaves that were on my tree, that he was trying to cultivate. Now I have learned not to get too attached to people or things, because when they don't glorify God, he will remove them or they will die. Thank you so much for your transparency. Love you big.
ReplyDeleteWOW! Yes! It's so hard to leave things behind, but you are so right in saying when we mourn we miss out on rejoicing what's ahead! Love you more!!!
