I Corinthians 1:27-29 KJV “But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: That no flesh should glory in his presence.” I usually don’t use King James Version because it’s in the Old English, but it’s how I learned the bible and sometimes I just can’t find it unless I look there first. However, this particular passage seems to just leap off the page to me. 

All morning long I’ve been getting one revelation after another of some portion of Gods Word. It’s left me astounded! Yes, that’s the feeling I have; astounded and undone. Kind of like an unexpected blessing from a complete stranger that leaves you standing with your mouth open. The thing is, I had just talked with a friend this morning and my words were picked up by Gods ears; “I want more revelation on Gods Word this year.” How exciting that as soon as He heard my hearts cry, he responded to me.  I may not have an great education or a high paying job, but I have Him and that’s enough to make the words leap off the pages and become more real than what I see surrounding me in the natural.

Why should that surprise me? Didn’t he say that when I call he will answer and deliver me? Why than should I be amazed? Perhaps there IS a little girl left in me, one who still believes in the unseen and unknown. One who trusts that when daddy said he’s coming back for me, still believes he will. WHEN not if. He WILL return for me riding a white horse, a sword in his hand, calling out, “Will you ride with me?” And I’ll say, “Yes, Lord, I will stand up and fight. I will ride with the armies of heaven, I’ll be dressed in white.”

You’ll never marry someone you don’t love or who won’t fight for you. I know He loves me, deeply, unconditionally. I’m so convinced that I have given myself away to him forever. Who have you given yourself to? Spending time in His presence will change how you look at those around you because you’ll see through His eyes instead of yours.
