The shape of things to come

Genesis 1:1-4 In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth. 2 The earth was without form and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters.

3 And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. 4 And God saw that the light was good. And God separated the light from the darkness.

It's been a while since my last blog and so much has happened, suffice to say I'm back with a vengeance.

God has taken me right to the beginning of things. He's been reminding me that where there is no form, He is the only one that can bring shape, where there is emptiness only He can fill and satisfy and where there is darkness only His light can shine and disperse it.

Life can be challenging sometimes where things don't go your way, your life seems to be so chaotic or it seems so empty, like something's missing. You look around for someone to help you, but there's no one, so you think. God's Spirit is always hovering over you, ready for action, just like in the beginning. Sometimes we have to begin again to realise that God wants you at that place where it's just you and Him.

When you come to that place where you say, 'God my life has no shape, it feels empty and there just seems to be darkness all around. His Spirit knows exactly what comes next, He's been there all this time, watching and waiting for you to surrender. Then God speaks, Let there be light and there was light. Wow! Suddenly, your life starts to take shape, God fills you with His Spirit and His light floods you.

The shape of your life is determined by your faith and reliance on your Creator, so when things are out of shape, let His word bring light and life.

My prayer for you today, is : "May our Great God and Saviour Jesus Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit bring shape, fulfillment and light to your life".

God bless you!

Love Heather
