TODAY GOD PROMISED ME A FEATHER!

I have been having ongoing conversations with God for about a month or more. I can hear Him speaking to me, and I answer back. It is as if I talking with my closest friend. Some significant things have happened in my life with feathers. One of the first and biggest was on 9-03-08. I walk and read my Bible at the same time. Just as I read the story in Luke 8:40, where the woman reached out in Faith and touched Jesus to be healed, I looked down and there was a big feather on the ground. I heard God say all you need to do is reach out to me, and have Faith that I will heal you. Ever since then, the message of Faith has been attached to feathers for me. Because of these things, I know that when I find a feather, God is healing my faith, letting me know He is here, and letting me know I have angels watching over me. God has been working overtime on my request from a couple of years ago to heal my Faith, and move my Biblical knowledge from my head to my heart. It is incredible! We have been working on renewing my mind. and allowing me to see myself as God sees me. I have been learning to cast any negative thoughts aside, and concentrate on His promises. The devil lies, and I throw Truth at him just like my Lord and Savior did, and boy has this been working! On my walk today at lunch, I had the thought what if I am going crazy? Maybe these words and promises that are being made to me, are just what I want to hear so, I am making them up? God said, how about I give you a feather to let you know it is me talking? the first thought that ran through my mind, what if I don't find...immediately His Truth came to me, anything is possible for he that BELIEVES. With God all things are possible. I gave the Lord a resounding I BELIEVE LORD!! I BELIEVE that what you have promised will happen!

I began to look for my feather. Keep pressing on, I told you that I have it for you, are you going to believe me? Look for it as you would in an Easter egg hunt. You know the eggs are there even though you may not see them right away. You know because someone has assured you that they hid them. I began to feel like a little child as I was looking everywhere for my feather. I was excited! What will it look like? Nope not there, not there either! As my walk back to the office from my lunch break was almost over, a part of me wanted to say, oh well maybe next time (like in the past). I am running out of places to look, and the door is only inches away. Nope, I said!! I am choosing to believe your promises God! I choose to BELIEVE! Faith is believing in His promises, even though your natural eyesight tells you otherwise. It is hearing His promises and seeing with your spiritual eyes, it coming to pass! This is called Earsight! The Lord told me a couple of years ago that I did not have earsight, and revealed to me the meaning of that long ago planted seed today! Isn't it wonderfully fun the way that He works? Where was I? Oh yes, my feather hunt! As I was ready to open the door of my office, The Lord let me know that the day was not over and I would still get my feather. Thinking back, I decided in my heart to KNOW without a doubt that this feather was going to be there. I never let myself think otherwise (IT IS A CHOICE). After work, I was to walk with some friends of mine before our girls meeting. I had no idea where we were walking to but it turned out we were walking through neighborhoods. It dawned on me that, HEY maybe this is where my feather will be! As we were walking and talking, I was seeking my feather with all my heart! My friend asked me what are you doing? What are you looking for? I said a feather. She was actually really cool about it. She just said, ok I won't ask but I will help you look! I looked everywhere on the ground, nothing no feather and we were almost back to our starting point. I still was not giving up, God said I would have a feather and for the first time in my life, I BELIEVED with all of my heart and was not going to let the devil steal my joy by lying to me about God's promise, or letting doubt sink in due to my natural eyesight. Nope, this time I was all in!

There it was! In the grass on the ground, just like an Easter egg. It was a grey feather probably from a goose. I had my feather just as God promised. About 3 min before our destination, I was also blessed with a second feather of a hawk's in a blacktopped parking lot. Not only did God do what He promised, but he gave me double what He promised! I hurried and put my feathers in the trunk of my car so that I would not lose them. Our other two friends wondered why we were walking the wrong way rather than to the door of our church, again without judgement, my friend just said, she needs to put her feathers in her trunk. I am going to paste them in my journal as a reminder that God is the one talking to me, and I can BELIEVE in His promises. You may ask why I am so excited over a feather. The feather is only symbolic of some really big promises that will be coming to pass, that He has made to me. The small tests of our Faith, are what get us through to the bigger fruits He has in store for us. We must prove trustworthy with the small things, before He can move us on to the bigger things of His Kingdom.

Question for you....What is your feather, and are you BELIEVING without a doubt that God will deliver? {Selah}
