As many of you can probably guess, Dennis and I are about to begin a new journey. ....we are going to pastor Lighthouse Church in Tulum, Mexico. It will be the God adventure of a lifetime.
Please allow me to share my heart....from my God to you.
We have prayed diligently during a very troubled time in our lives, a time that we never expected. We have been at the lowest time ever......nothing has made sense. Life didn't exactly go the way we had planned. But the Holy Spirit said "my" cloud is going this way....follow me...."my" fire is going this way....continue to follow me. When we stopped fighting the one who came to Rescue and rested in His arms, he began to pull us safely to His shore. Weary and exhausted, He said, "let ME defend, let ME provide, let ME take the pieces of your heart, cover them with my hand and bind up your wounds. I am the Great I Am....stop giving that place of honor to others who can never be the great I AM. It may hurt for awhile, but I will be your shield and cover you with my feathers......who els can do this? Stop putting a bandaid on the wound.... leave it open as the breath of my Spirit will blow over the cut, permeates it and heals.... It will be uncomfortable as the scab begins to form, gets knocked off, and re-forms several times. The scar will form as a reminder of my grace and mercy extended to you and to others. A reminder of the time that you quit struggling against the Rescuer in the turbulent waters....You will again get out of the boat,stay in the deep, look into my eyes and walk on the water with your eyes focused completely on me....miracles will begin again. The yoke must be broken for the anointing to begin (thank you Pastor Clint)
A dear friend I have never met personally sent me a message today.....the shards of broken glass will be made into treasured stained glass of the Kingdom of God. While I am not ready to say this is the reason this happened because man takes things into his own hands too often.....I am ready to say He can make good things come from bad. I am ready to walk away from "My" plan to "His" plan. The miracle is in the house....pour the oil! Lighthouse Church ..... keep the light burning for Jesus....we are on our way.
