| I knew you Before | |||||||
| The Servant had been traveling for many miles. He was given a purpose to fulfill and he was determined to complete the plan his Master had mapped out for him. He tired to dodge pothots in the road and sidesteppe falling boulders and fallen trees in his path, but occasionally he would fall. The servant reflected on his last fall. He'd sustained only minor bruises and was able to brush himself off and continue on the path...but it could have been avoided. He'd asked for wisdom for his journey and understanding to find the way. His eyes had become clearer from lessons he'd learned along the way. "Master, why is it that I know the way but I continue to stumble over the boulders in the road? Why can't I get it right?" The servant asked looking toward heaven.. The Master smiled, "My child, I knew you'd never be perfect with that human body you have." "You knew?" The servant asked in surprise. "I knew you. Before you were born, I saw your precious heart. I knew you desired to love and serve me in truth. I knew you would need a Saviour and sent my Son, Jesus. I made provision for your humanness at the Cross of Christ; who died that you might live. Your humanness will be remembered no more. I knew you would need an intercessor, and sent you my Holy Spirit. The Enemy tried to destroy you. He tried to cripple you to prevent you from completing the plan I designed for you; but continue on, My child. My Holy Spirit will interceed on your behalf. He will guide you all the way. Keep your eyes on me. I will keep you from falling. I will lift you up above it all, on wings of eagles. Stay close to me as I whisper my hearts desire to you. Call on me for all your needs and I will supply them all. Your cup will run over. I won't reject you when you stumble. I'll be there to pick you up and set you back on solid ground. I chose you with your imperfections to manifest My Perfection. When they see you, they will only see Me. I will be glorified!" The servant bowed his head, "Thank you, Father," he said humbly. "In falling down you've taught me how to stand. I love you with all my heart." Joy |
