Going Up

Today as I rode on the train into work coming out of a tunnel, while meditating on how in life we go through tunnels of darkness, I saw a plane taking off. It was a site to behold and the coincidence of happening to be coming of a dark tunnel as the flight was taking off made me marvel in wonder at God's goodness. I heard a voice repeat to me that the same way as I have seen a plane taking off while coming out of a tunnel my life is taking off to higher heights.

I recently celebrated my birthday and as I took time to rest and wait on God, He made it clear that the tunnel of darkness was behind me. While studying the scriptures I came across a scripture that has blown my mind away over the last few days. As I read this passage I could not help but marvel at God's love. Whatever has hindered my progress I have news for it, your time is over and God's time is here and now. I hope this passage will be a blessing to you as well. May His promises over your life come to pass. May you possess all that He has ordained for you. Here is the portion of scripture that has really blessed me especially the tail end of it Isaiah 41:11-13(Message Bible).

“Count on it: Everyone who had it in for you

    will end up out in the cold—

    real losers.

Those who worked against you

    will end up empty-handed—

    nothing to show for their lives.

When you go out looking for your old adversaries

    you won’t find them—

Not a trace of your old enemies,

    not even a memory.

That’s right. Because I, your God,

    have a firm grip on you and I’m not letting go.

I’m telling you, ‘Don’t panic.

    I’m right here to help you.’
