He is Good

One of those days, full of destiny battles, where it clicks for a second in time that every fight you've experienced has mattered. Intentionally the battles found you to prepare, validate you as a warrior.  And you are ready for this fight because you know the value of your history and future with Abba. What you carry has been shaped by the battles and victories, the glory of God falling on you in new ways, igniting your heart to really know what it means to both crave and live abundance.  What you carry is so needed in the world, bringing beauty out of the ashes all around you, shining light in dark places.  If not for the battles, how would you have learned how to really shine?  

Flashback scenes. Sitting in a doctor's office, 19 years old, with a report that brought fear to my heart.  Poor hand circulation, according to this doctor, equaled a pending auto-immune disease.  As the doctor left the room, instantly spirit spoke to soul's fear, "I will live and not die.  I WILL declare the glory of God all the days of my life."  Yes.  Grab that. Agree with truth.  The doctor returned with prescriptions, predictions, but my heart was re-aligned with the Father's will for me.  Live and not die.  A life that declares with all that is in it, until its last strong breath, HE IS GOOD.  Knowing He is good, deep down, starts to take hold of your life.  Your thoughts, ideas, decisions form from a place where all is pure, lovely, good.  A life cloaked in kind of victory guaranteed by the kingdom in which we dwell.  A victory in that moment of spirit realigning soul, reminding the whole person, you will fulfill destiny.  And because you believe that, your belief will powerfully call others into that place of the God path.  

And He is good.  Through the battles, He is good.
