Come, Let Us Reason Together

Topic: Battling Disillusionment

This is the first entry of this new blog and I only have ten minutes to work on it. So, it may not truly reflect my deepest emotions today.

However, I am about to RUN to my private place (as private as I can get in one of the largest cities in America) with the Lord!

There is much I need to ask his advice about. Usually, I just ask my Lord in the name of Yeshua (Jesus Christ) his Son to "open all doors he wants open and close all doors he wants closed," and then I trust him to do just that. This method has never failed me.

However, on days like today when I'm feeling the battle between my flesh and my spirit, I reason with the Lord. Because I know my flesh doesn't want to submit to God's perfect will for my life. So, I go to my special place with the Lord and sit there reasoning with God until my flesh can't argue with him anymore. Hah!

Besides that, I need comfort today. My heart is a bit melancholy.

I want to sit beside the water and listen to its soothing ripples, meditating on my Lord, Yahweh, my Elohim, until I feel his loving arms wrapped around me and his feathers covering me (Psalm 91).

Yes. I shall sit by the water's edge and hide myself in my Lord, my "Rock," until I know I am firmly standing on his promises today.

Then disillusionment will have no place with me. It will run in terror from me. And I will rest in the peace of God which passes all understanding. And I will truly say from my heart, "Have Your Way, Yahweh!"
