"i believe destiny to be the best outcome based on our internal design & fate to be the furthest your destiny can take you. yet BOTH are based on certain set parameters that are informed by our choices..."
I posted this on Twitter on April 15th 2022.
Some of us are designed to be the greater engine that houses all the smaller parts. While others may be that one cog in the engine that makes sure fuel flows properly. Others...the frame that holds it all together and still others...the outer body representing its design. Not all of these are sexy enough to be lauded or seen but ALL hold true to their purpose in the end. For either the good...or the detriment...of the whole.
Now some may rest on this idea and say there is nothing for them to "do" but that is a fallacy. The effectiveness of your design is based on preparation. Preparation's unique course that is set by the choices we make in life. To understand this so young is dangerous but to learn this too old...foolish.
Yesterday I faced the pinnacles of faith and fear to depths I've not had to for awhile. Even with specific warnings of events, you are never prepared for certain things but how we advance in our perception and subsequent attitude make all the difference in the world. This not only serves to reveal us...but also to prepare us based on our design.
I felt it all...and still do. My heart in my stomach, the chaos in the air and the desperation of the unknown. For a few hours...fear. That is until my Lord reminded me in the sternest way possible who I was in Him but more importantly...who HE was in me. My heart beats heavy but is now in my chest where it belongs. Chaos is ordered as it should be and the unknown is in the hands of the One that warned us of this in the first place. This is how we grow. It's when the chisel meets the stone of our existence. Who we are is defined by such things and I pray to get through it at not MY best...but HIS.
"if the world spins on...so to then must we..."
