The Secret Place

Some days, I want to hide.

I want to turn off my phone and delete all my e-mails.  I think about how wonderful it would be to say goodbye to all the ugly.

Some days, it’s hard to face the unlovely.

But then, I remember.   I remember that God didn’t say all my days here on earth would be pretty and peaceful.   I remember that there is work to be done, and if I give up the fight, who will stand and protect my piece of the battlefield?

I gain strength when I remember that I am not facing the ugly on my own.   I gain hope when I remember that others before me have stood their ground and stayed the course.  I gain courage when I remember that the Creator of this universe is my Hiding Place.

Like Moses, I want to stand on the Rock and watch God’s glory go by.  But first, I must position myself in the secret place.  I must stand still and look for His splendor.

My song of deliverance is coming.

King of Glory, I wait for you.

This year, my desire is to lift up holy hands and “Pray Big.” Want to join me? I’ve created a private “Pray Big” Facebook group for like-minded sisters to share their stories and surrender each one to our mountain-moving God in prayer. Let’s cry out to God together.

 

 

 

I am sharing “The Secret Place” and joining like-minded sisters at Recommendation Saturday, The Weekend Brew, Spiritual Sundays, Faith-Filled Friday, Blessing Counters, Live Free Thursday, Tell His Story, Coffee for Your Heart, Woman to Woman Wednesday, Three-Word Wednesday, The Soli Deo Sisterhood, Testimony Tuesday, Purposeful Faith’s RaRaLinkup, Rich-Faith Rising, Sharing His Beauty, and Playdates with God.
