...the Big in small packages...

Today's blip is about one thing in my life that has remained a faithful friend and a companion in all situations....my life bearer!

Its funny that this cup got given me the day I was to receive bad news in my life-its funny that God seems to have been preparing me to bear the bad news which in my spirit I had already saw coming.

Funny how even when I had seen it coming,when it did-it crushed me like nothing has ever-funny enough this is the 3rd time it was happening-in as much as I had been through it,my heart couldn't cope with all of it this time.

I have had cups before,but this one came at a perfect moment with a message from God for what was about to happen-unfortunately I failed to stand....but I'm learning to stand

Its my special reminder-at my retreat whenever I had a cuppa it reminded me of pain,tears,rejection,dissapointment,hurt...-but it also reminded me that God knows my life,He knows what I'm going through and He has told me what to do in this challenging season

Its a journey-one hard to forget but also one to experience the faithfulness of God. He is faithful to me all the times,and when man fail me,He will never fail me

Iv met people who cannot be still,people who are so task driven that the concept of stopping is a challenge-this verse has taught me to have time in the day to stop and hear from God-no tv,phones,friends,thoughts...just stopping so God can speak and we can hear him

I believe this is a Godly principle- an ability that anyone who seeks God must begin adopting.

Some of us fear the stillness because we are afraid to face the grief of emptiness in us that we keep stuffing with social activities or work. Iv come to learn that deafness in a Christian is caused by a Christian and not because God isn't speaking-when one loves their thots and other people's opinions and not God's ,then its hard for them to hear him

Through my cuppa verse I'm learning that the Psalmist advises that we be still so that we can truly know who God is and what God wants from us.
