Ways of God

"Trust in Him at all times: ye people, pour out your heart before Him: God is a refuge for us. Selah." Psalm 62:8

Just recently God restored a a wounded friendship of mine. And it was such a beautiful thing, so beautiful I had a hard time swallowing the truth that was happpening right before my eyes. But before that, the crisis.

You see, I vividly remember the few steps I embarked entering her church. I loved another woman whom I deeply believe is the "one" for me, but she was a friend of mine. A friend deserves to hear the truth. This was my conviction, and it led me to draw lines between me and my friend because of my love for my "one." It made terrible repercussions and it really hurt the both of us.

Somehow, my integrity was on the line. And shame was a word I kept hearing in my head. But then, this verse kept me strong. I didn't hear it verbatim, but its soul, its heart, its message glowed within me like the surface of the moon when faced into the sun.

"God is a refuge for us." That was the essence. That this really is a new chapter, about what God, not Caleb, can do for me.

Wisdom, Jesus said, is proven right by her actions. The wisdom was found scattered all throughout the psalms.

"In God I have put my trust: I will not be afrain what man can do unto me." Ps.56:11


"Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear Him, upon them that hope in his mercy; To deliver them from death, and to keep them alive in famine." Ps.33:17,18

And my eyes testify these words are very much true. They reflect the new chapter, and God is establishing the foundations of this new chapter in my life.
