God... Let it be with me...just like you say!

Total obedience...
direction from the Lord
taken
without
fussing
arguing
deal making.

Life situations turned into a Judean roller coaster and thrown into irreversible change...
and there is
Mary
and
Joseph
taking direction,
without faltering.

Of course they are human and had the same questions we'd all have.
Questions and any fear didn't change their
obedience
to
the
Lord
God
Almighty.

"May it be to me as you have said!"

None of us will be having the Messiah...He has already come.
God puts life changing events in our lives...
for His glory
for our best good...
to bring His ends to pass...

"Let it be with me as God says!"

Hard changes.
Difficult circumstances.

I know my life has changed this year...
my first full year without my mother-in-law

Now I really feel like there is no woman
being my Aaron in the dessert...holding my hands up

but Lord...
"May it be to me as you have said!"

My husband and children are blessings
and struggles
sometimes simultaneously.

Lord...
"May it be to me as you have said."

My own walk with the Lord...
strong and steadfast at times...
weak and pathetic at others...

and myself and so many others are living
without less hours, less pay, and finding out God is still in control...
and it's OK!

but God is faithful...
and we MUST turn to Him in all situations...
good and bad.

Like Mary and Joseph...
not knowing what lies ahead for them...

Let Mary's reframe be on our lips...
God Let it be as you say!

Alleluia!

Its easy to get caught up in well..ourselves. Thanks for the morning insight. I am a young mother of 2 boys (my 2 year old has ASD and my 6 year old has ADHD). I am on a quest searching for mothers who would like to start a book/insight blog on ASD, ADHD, food allergies. If interested please email me at legendswife@hotmail.com

God bless
