Let go and let God!

Hello everyone! Okay I'm going to attempt to make this short, and sweet. lol I have been fortunate enough to be surrounded by some amazing God fearing, Light bearing women and men of God. The only problem with this is that light reveals everything.... Even the stuff that you want to keep hidden. What I realized is that instead of guarding my heart I have been attempting to build a wall around it. The difference, The bible says, "Keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life." (Proverbs 4:23) This scripture I believe has been often taken out of context... to keep something or guard is simply to protect it from being hardened by this world. The Lord revealed to me though that once were born again, and receive His Spirit were no longer working alone. Therefore, at the gate of my heart I have a night watchman who whispers, discerns if someones not good for me or has il intentions. So I don't have to try to convince myself that I'm guarding my heart... when in reality It's a trust issue. I had to come to terms with the fact that I hadn't fully let go of what a person had done to me. Crazy huh? The Lord showed me how I can potentially block blessings when I build walls.... No one entering into our lives should have to tear down a wall. So once I acknowledged the issue the only thing left to do is to humbly, surrender it to God.... allowing Him to mend what's broken in the area of trust. I was saying, "Lord, I trust you" when in reality I did'nt because anytime you have to say something its because you're are trying to convince yourself that you do... Trust is an unspoken confidence in God's abilities. So Ill be the test dummy... don't wait until someone comes in your life, and sheds light on your heart issues... hand them over to Jesus, and let Him correct them so that they don't fester. I love you guys! Till next time.. be blessed! :) Taira
