Awww, today, yes today was better than yesterday. Have you ever said those words? I’m not going to go into detail but I’m certainly glad that today is today!
I love my prayer walks, each day He speaks to me something new, or gives a word in inspiration, why? Because I have allowed myself to be undisturbed, by anything…. no texts, no phones, no list of things that that need my attention this very second and the list goes on!
Today I didn’t hear as may birds singing or see many flying in fact I probably could’ve counted on both hands how many I saw. It was strangely quiet. Normally I can hear cars, the school across the way, but nothing except…I could hear the sound of sprinklers coming on, it sounded as if they were right in front of me. There’s a new housing track that was built a few years ago that I can see when I get to the end of the road, standing overlooking the valley.
It was deceiving, I panned the houses thinking it was right in front of me, but it was actually a several houses to my left and then I heard water spraying and I looked to my right and saw another set of sprinklers doing its job of watering the parched ground.
It’s been unusually hot these several days. The more you water, the grass, it seems to drink it right up and you find that it’s still in its original state!
Now, I’m no horticulturalist but I do know that if you don’t water something that requires watering…what happens? If you over-water, well it can be a total wash out..no pun intented!
You say to yourself...”what is she brain-less, of course when it’s hot things seem to dry up faster, especially if your not taking care of the grass or any living thing that requires watering.” Get where I’m going with this.
Water what needs to be watered. Has He required something of you lately…are you that person that is sprinkling someone else’s life or are you overwatering them. Sure you intentions are pure and good, but sometimes in our act of doing His will we find we can kinda get in the way…not that that’sall bad but I think we call that being overzealous?
Don’t over water for fear of drowning and destroying what could possible have life. For life is very precious and fragile, don’t give way to something you feel needs attention... timing is so important. A word spoken in due season, how good it is!
Don’t be deceived by hearing something, thinking it’s coming from the direction you think it’s coming from.
Focus, concentrate know that He provided all your needs from yesterday and gave new life for you today as He will take care of your tomorrows, as He will theirs.
He takes consideration in every single person ….just as we take into consideration, when and how to plant in a garden, the amount of sprinkling or watering and the right seed for the right season!
Isaiah 55:10 As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish,
so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater,
Doing their work of making things grow and blossom, producing seed for farmers and food for the hungry, So will the words that come out of my mouth not come back empty-handed. They’ll do the work He sent them to do; they’ll complete the assignment He gave them.
