A Journey With My Father

A Journey With My Father

Went on a journey with My Father last night
like a little girl, with my small tiny hand
i stretched it out to the Lord
holding His warm, loving hands
we started on our walk

First we came to the beach
where the sand is so thin and soft
i smiled at Him as my feet gently sinks into the sand
kinda took my time to walk slowly
enjoying every step i take on the soft, smooth sand
=)

Very quickly we came to another part where the sand got harder
and it's beginning to make me feel a little uncomfortable
trying not the show the frown on my face
i walked on

and soon we reached a rocky area
where big and small sharp rocks are gather
this time it's really painful
trying to minimize the pain caused to my sole
i watched every step i take
trying my best to bear with it
but it came to a point where i cannot bear any longer
so i asked
"Abba, why? Why do we have to go through this? 
isn't the soft sand alot better?"

Gently He looked into my eyes and said
"Girl, did I not created the different foundations of the Earth?
and look, the soft sand is good
but what can I build on it?
these rocks are essential to form the foundation 
of what I am about to build"

He reminded me of the foundations of the Earth
the different layers of sand that forms the foundation
and without the strength of the stronger rock
nothing strong can be built

so He went on
bringing me back to the soft sand
He showed me what would happen if He starts building on it
He placed a strong building on it
and it starts to sink in
as it sits gently on the sand
but as the storms and waves draws near
the building starts to waver due to the lack of foundation

Then with His strong and gentle hands
He took me into His arms and whispered
"Are you all not stronger through it all?
when the foundation is ready
I will come and build upon it
and you can be assured that 
you all can face through the storms and waves together
because of all that you all have been through
now, are the rocks not essential 
to have made you all stronger and closer?"

Wooo~
Holding on to Him
Tears just flowed down my cheeks
in my heart i just know that everything is gonna be so right
simply because He is in control
and His ways higher than my ways
His thoughts higher than my thoughts
=D
