Blessed Sunday 2024,
How did your last Sunday go? It’s been chilled vibes this side. I’ve embraced fatigue at this point. It’s the new normal…
Let’s go to church.
I didn’t really have a theme this year. Not sure how this happened but, I was just set at “Lord help me”. A number of scriptures came through for me but one sticks out. Your timeline has made me look at Psalm 23 in a different light. Look, this scripture showed me flames. You’d swear God used this scripture to speak (read reprimand) to me. I won’t have the strength to go all of them. Let me touch on the few.
First of all, you were valley that verse 4 refers to. Yes. Homegirl you were something else. You had me questioning what they mean when they say “even though I walk”. Walk? Who walks through that valley? I crawled myself through there on your timeline. On days when I wasn’t just sitting still, I just crawled to move ahead. My knees are a few shades darker!
Secondly, I had a bone to pick with verse 1. My biggest want of the year was not to be on that strong persons list. It was a desperate need and an even more desperate want. My prayer is for whoever is in charge of this list to remove me for next year. I am just a girl shame.
My last reflection point is on gratitude. I heard the back story of why shepherds pour oil on sheep - as a means of protection. Heyi, the Lord is my Shepherd! He literally greased these locks with oil and made me slippery. Call Neo and Trinity right now - I’ve dodged way more bullets. You’ve made me the one, 2024 🙏🏽
