In The Battle

And so the battle begins or I guess you could say, “Once upon a time”. This is a new day for me. It’s a new morning, a new night, and a new beginning all together. I’m excited yet nervous. I’m wondering, “What will my story tell now?” One thing is for sure, I won’t be going back to where I was before. Not if I have anything to do about it. I’m giving my heart, soul, mind and strength to God to lead me where he wants me to go. That is the hard part really. I don’t know where he is leading, but it’s going to be an awesome ride. I love the idea of God using me to go into battle. Up to this time I’ve been in a dream that played out like I didn’t even realize there was a villain. Now I know better and I would say that makes all the difference.

I was reading in Matthew the first couple of chapters today. After reading the genealogy of Jesus, I realize for him to be here, some really amazing things had to happen along the way. One mistake and we have no Joseph. Now, I get that God could have used anyone… but this was the way he was supposed to come. It can’t just be a coincidence that Jesus lineage actually came that far, and that somehow he actually had Joseph and Mary be the mother and father that Jesus was to have. Again, it was all part of God’s plan.

And so what about my story? What is it going to bring? The fact is, I can’t see into the future of what it holds, but I can tell you this. There will be an epic story. I’m going to have family, friends, and even the Holy Spirit by my side to go into this battle.
