More Visions

God reminded me of his part in my decision making. He imparted his wisdom to me. Decisions are no until God says clearly yes. And I pursue righteousness not by works but by faith.

I was running the race in my lane. Fog covered the lane, the entire track, in fact.

Do not sell yourself short in a work. I am worth much more than that. You hunger for something more. For "Jacob I loved but Esau I hated."

What happened yesterday was matter of trust. I have trouble trusting God about his preparing me and my spouse to be together. And then I realize that I have an even more difficult time trusting that God is preparing me to be a super husband and father!

As I was walking down the hill this afternoon, I realized I do not know how to love people in a way they can understand. That was a humbling revelation. I wanted to cry.

God then spoke to me. He gave me the word, renewal.  I am entering into a season of renewal. My mind is being renewed to be like that of Christ. My heart is being softened. Compassion and stewardship are returning to my life. Praise God.

In sum, a lot of breakthrough during this fast. God moved the prophetic spirit in me by visions and words of knowledge. People were blessed and encouraged. The first two weeks were a smooth, connecting flight with my father. The last week was rough. I was difficult, and placed my desires ahead of my relationship with God. (I realize now how much pleasure I get from these things.) Yet, I am being renewed. Praise God. 

Finally, one vision after the fast: I have mulled over "pulling the trigger" in my relationships with girls so that, at last, I will select one. As I was walking down the hill (I am always walking down hills, aren't I?) I saw my hands clasped on a revolver, my finger on the trigger. And then I saw Jesus behind me, his arms stretched beside mine, his hands holding mine, his finger on this trigger. I only need to let the Lord help me to aim, and to pull the trigger. He will help me to select. I can trust him that with him, my aim will be true and straight. I will select the right girl for this season in my life.
