Over coming my stuff....

So as I prepare to leave town I have all this really nice stuff. I've been trying to sell it to no avail.
It's hard to part with beautiful things . I tell you no lies , you can pack it up and it looms over you, almost speaks to you . " oh your gonna be so sorry to give all this away " " you'll never make it with out us ," it seems to say.
Well I've been spending hours before god tonight just soaking in his presence . Suddenly I've got no peace . I'm agitated why ? Feeling blue.
Lord do I trust you completely ?
I must not after all you know my heart . I can't hide anything from you.
Help me lord I admit I'm scared . Why?
You've called me to this life. So I prayed . Well then it hit me . It's a test. Look at the rich young ruler . He asked Jesus what must I do to be saved ?Jesus said sell all you have and give the money to the poor then come and follow me. He was sad . He couldn't do it. He missed gods plan and provision for his life. Suddenly I felt peace . Like a big gas bubble was gone I could breath, no more angst . It's brilliant!
Ok so that's what I must do . So it's the pawn shop sell it and give the money away . Compleat trust in gods provision . And so I've successfully discerned gods will in this situation . Wow it's really that easy .

Slow hand churning

So I sit in a semi dark room with all my things either packed or stacked in boxes and bags. I await my assignment but tonight like last night and the night before consists of me waiting alone. It's cool ,can do . So I vowed to take communion for seven straight days got the goods by my bed so each night I'm down . My friend Kim says get still and align with god so he can raise you up and give you the victory .
To the humiliation of the enemy , y'all know who that is right ?
K so I'm down with receiving what god has for me how about you !?
I keep feeling TBN , the conference . I feel like I'm gonna get a job offer .
Ok reality check I have no job that I'm going to no where to live . Are you feeling me ?it's a faith walk .
Today I almost got nervous but na . Look Dan , I said it's like skydiving
Get out the door . You love adventures
Trust god for the rest !
So I will . I can't wait to show off what our god is going to do to reveal how much he loves you and me.
Serve him with all ! All you are ! Bank on him . Fall on him . Get ahold of him
Release all toxic emotions . Bend your will to his plan . Don't let your flesh win. Give in to god more than ever before . Trust him with your life .
Am I gonna be homeless? Hungry?
Penniless ? What if I was ? For his glory then it's still attributed as righteousness from faith and obedience . Can I say no to the potter who molds the clay ? I think not . If I suffer it's with Christ . But he is rewarding me for faithfulness this I know . He will open doors not me . For I am not god .
So Be blessed.

A soldiers will...

The solider will...
Readily obey his master
He will not leave his post
Or be found in compromise
Unable to perform his duties
Will not experience lack or be found wanting but will proclaim freedom and provision that is given to him by his superiors.
The soldier will not disgrace his leaders therefore causing discipline to follow.
He will not miss his mark
He will sit in silence when needed and be strong and of good courage
He will not allow the enemy to ensnare him in the entrapments of life.
He will not allow offense to breed with in and cause a poverty spirit to manifest . He is not his own for he has given up the rights of his own life to serve in the masters army of god.
He will maintain his health and spiritual disciplins so that he will always be in top fighting shape .
He will display kindness to all , even and especially those who disrespect him , for this compassion it the love of his master .
A soilder will wait when necessary
And charge when commanded
He will not give up or feel despair.
He will be a light in this present darkness. And show others to gods protection . He is for the lost the broken the rejected the hurting and the fatherless and widowed.
He is an offering .
"Forgive them for they know not what they do ."

Paying it forward

Ok so the other day I went to the u haul truck rental store to check on prices for moving . Met a really nice young man from Hattie . His name was JR
He was smiling and radiating life and joy . So I begin to tell him why I'm moving to Nashville . He responds with" I love what your doing "
We talked for a while and he told me that he plays guitar. He plays at a small church and he likes very much to play for god. Said he was trying to get better, but loved worship music . I went home . When I arrived home god reminded me that the day before I had prayed , god I have an extra guitar and I'd gladly give it to some young would be worship leader ... Well guess what I just met him. So I loaded up my car with this beautiful black fender telecaster , case and my old keyboard and proceeded back down to the uhaul store .
I motioned for JR to come to the car and when I told him the story his eyes lite up with joy . He was speechless and touched . I too was because I could see how much god loved this young man .
We talked a little . I prayed for him . And he managed. To say through a heartfelt smile " this is a really good day."
I drove home with chills and I believe all heaven was rejoicing.
It's so good to do good to others and pay it forward .

Backstory

I am blessed
At a time in my life such as this I find myself challenged and on a quest . A true" search for significance ."
An oath I swore to our heavenly father has led my to a path of twists and turns that would rival any back packing trip I've ever completed .( the oath spoken was God ,I'm your man I'll go where ever you send me . I won't question you. I will ask questions but will not question you. I am not God. You are. Not me . Make it where I can go and I'll play guitar for you and any artist you desire of me. )
This oath took me for eight months traveling 400 miles every weekend and sleeping on floors ,bunk beds ,and couches , to minister as a music missionary to the Orlando areas. While maintaining a full time job. The miracle was I had lost everything including my car . So I learned that god does provide.

My journey begins in south Florida
With many clients saying goodbyes
And a handful of friends offering love and support.
As a hairstylist of 20 years I realized that my interests have switched from hair to caring deeply about the needs of my clients. I began to minister on the job . So much that it gas led me to my new calling .
I have total peace as I pack my belongings. Eliminating what is too much and keeping what may be used in the future.
God has told me " the less of you you have the more of me you will have "
So i make the cuts.
My prayer is to sell It all in one swoop...
In three weeks I will drive to Nashville
Unload and begin at the TBN facility where I will attend a three day conference for worship leaders .
I am very pumped about this as I anticipate what god might do there.
I have learned much so far . One phrase I love is radical sacrifice equals radical reward.
My heart is for gods will to be done on earth as it is in heaven .
People are in denial about Thier fate
With out Jesus . Gods heart is to say as many as would allow .
I gladly give up my junk and " security "to help snatch them from the jaws if hell.
My good friend Robert always told me " find your purpose" " get on purpose"
"Find your passion and live it "
Ok ok I'd say until I got it . He was correct.
Breakdown:
I am to go. I am to trust, retire from hair dressing, travel light, serve at the anchor church in Nashville ,
"Grow where your planted ",
Allow them to bless a prophet ;stand back and watch god open doors . As he sees fit .
It's all very radical .
God will provide .
My ministry begins then. As Nashville is my promised land.
These next weeks will be tough as I anticipate but I am at peace .
For I am the PRESENCE. BRINGER!
