Starting a blog in a deployed location can become overwhelming. The access to Internet connect is limited daily, working, sleeping it all become motionless movement.  But we serve a God of life that's moving so have to press forward and work with what we have to glorify Him. Often we have a lot  to give but chop it up to be so small and motionless.  God the greatest of them all, capable of the impossible still our tiny minds place him in a box (He's  not capable of boxing ). Our yielding to move place a mind set of disbelief  of what God is capable of doing.

Months ago I was assigned to this jail cell size room, filled with a bunk bed, mini fridge, two wall lockers, 19 inch television and a covered window blocking any sun light from coming in. So  I sarcastically complained instantly as we all do , this living space is too small for me. It was like coming from a 2700 sq ft home to live in a jail size room.  I was sold into believing I needed something bigger to accommodate me as if  I was a queen leaving  my castle. God humbled me quickly showing me it's not about me but Him. The Lord showed me when I place Him in the room it's more than enough. I have all the things I truly need to draw close to Him and move through the impossible during my time here.

See to the human eyes we tend to examine our space based off what we have but not by how it can be used.  I had to ask myself is it enough for me to bow before our King? Is it enough for me to worship Him in praise? Is it enough for His word to meditate on my heart? The Lord shut me down in clear view revealing how faith goes. This is why faith is so important, it doesn't require our eyes to see, it only desires for us to hope and believe how big God is. If we were really truly able to see how big God is, I fear we would be instantly be blinded from the overload of His greatness. The Lord want us to see things from His perspective and through His eyes not by tangible things that can vanish in the  blink of an eye When we have faith in the things unseen we have no expectation and God makes the results more than we could have imagined. Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. For by it the elders obtained a good testimony. By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible. (Hebrews 11:1-3) When we are weak and tired feeling like there's nothing else let our faith move us beyond what we see or feel but who we believe in. 

Lord help us not to place you in a box but to have an imagination like a child giving you credit for everything great and big. Help us to understand the box we place you in only limit us from receiving the blessing you already has prepared for us. Souls are hurting because they can't see or feel you; open their hearts to acknowledge your presence.Thank you for loving us beyond our wants and needs. Move us when we become motionless, nurture us back to you. Amen.
