Celebrate

It's all about celebration...

What you've done, who you are...oh mercy!

I know that some stuff is going on in my life that i wish i could solve and rectify in a heartbeat; relationships that are not smooth sailing at the moment. It was beginning to discourage me. To get me down and snuff my joy out. I've said things that i should not have, reacted instead of being proactive, been hurtful instead of comforting...and i need your forgiveness. But larger than that i need to know that you can still use me this weekend. Despite the dilemmas.

I am going to celebrate the fact that when people have shown faith in the face of delay that you ALWAYS came through for them. I know you will. I don't know if i have enough faith but i pray you'll add some to me.

You have taken nobodies and made them into somebodies. You've turned cliches into experience and the knowledge of you into a relationship with you. If i have nothing else to preach about then I'll just celebrate the fact that somehow and for some reason you have a heart for people like me.

I gave my life to you a while back and you've done nothing but grow and nurture me. It's awesome to see that along the way i didn't know what i was doing where i was going, but you've taken me to places i never dreamed possible, to meet people that have helped to define relationship and its value!

So this sabbath is another avenue to celebrate. I was planning on going on my own just to make sure that there are no distractions and that there is no room for any disputes to start....but actually maybe that is where i am wrong. If i am to do this, can i do it in a vacuum? Can i just try and leave some people behind just so i can act as if everything is all good? I don't know i haven't made up my mind.

Whatever happens, its an opportunity to celebrate. To shout you, big you up and let others know that you are still transforming lives today. If i can't look at my own life in the context of what i wanna say, then there ain't no point. So yeah I'm facing a few delays in my life right now...delays that I've prayed about and at times have not been as proactive and helpful as i should...but if i can hold on to faith in the face of these delays, i know you will make it well. I know you're on the way to help. I will not let these be obstacles in the way of my joy, peace or preaching this sabbath.

You do unexpected things, miracles, signs and wonders. I'm not sure most of the time about how you move and most times i am unsure of myself and why you've picked me. But you've done it! In moments like these i realise that i am so dependent on you...you're the one I'm talking about and the one who invests the power.

Do exceedingly, abundantly, above all i could ever ask or imagine or write...let your word become flesh again and dwell right here in the crevices of my heart, so that as my mouth opens only issues of life will spring out of it.

You're extraordinary and awesome. The faith that i have i want to give to you, even in the face of my personal delays. I know that help is on the way. That's why i can celebrate!
