The Sweetest Break

 

I asked the Lord to help me and heal me. After all, Love rose from the grave. I don’t need dead things trying to consume me. I prayed that he would break the thing(s) that kept me in cycles of insecurity that encouraged disobedience. Break cycles of mistrust of His voice and my spotty filter through which my own understanding distorted the truth.

Something happened. Some word or train of thought had lodged itself in my heart and mind and I wanted to be over it and live free. I could not pinpoint it or define it. It just reared its ugly head to challenge me and enough was enough. Break it God.

God answered with overwhelming love just a few days later. In the moment, I shed a few tears unable to obtain the answers I thought I needed to settle my soul. I felt an eventual passing of the heaviness and decided that I didn't need to care anymore. It was time to Go in the strength I have... This was the break that I asked for in the way God knew I needed. Only, I didn't know that it would be the sweetest break, in that it simultaneously cut deeply and healed permanently. I am free and for this I am grateful. I chose ♡ Gods love.

Is there an unexpected, yet reoccurring roadblock that is somehow quietly encouraging disobedience and discouragement? Perhaps it's an insecurity based on acceptance as the desired outcome of your act of obedience. Does it make you question whether it's God leading or you speaking? Surrender to the Lord. The break might hurt but it will simultaneously heal. It is the sweetest break you will ever experience.
