Uncovered Before You Lord...Just as I am!

"Remember how the LORD your God led you all the way in the wilderness these forty years, to humble and test you in order to know what was in your heart, whether or not you would keep his commands." Deuteronomy 8:2

Blessings my Beloved Sisters and Friends. It is an honor to come back and share with you after a while. This blog I have titled "Uncovered Before You Lord...Just as I Am" and I will tell you why.

I have come to the conclusion, that the way of the Lord must be truly transparent, as he has equipped us, we have learned to hide our feelings, or that we need to be strong before people, because we're Christians and we trust in God and can do everything, and it is very true. But that leads us to have "Crystal" smiles and pretend to be someone we're not or not have feelings at all. Yes, the word says: "Let the weak say, I am strong" but before God we must be as we are and how we feel.

Now, the Holy Spirit shows me these Bible verses that we see above and others that we will see in the development of this blog, and it shows me that God tests our hearts and at the same time of the process you stand uncovered before Him. You're simply you, the person that He created. Process or brokeness? Whatever it is, it is very difficult, hard, even painful, but if it doesn't hurt there is no transformation. It's like open heart surgery. There is a saying in English that says, "No Pain, No Gain" is a moment I would say, a dark moment in your life. It is difficult to see beyond, and to understand the process. You just have to wait and trust in God that everything will pass and while you wait and broken, cooperate with the work in progress that God does in you, the more you cooperate, more quickly you will pass the desert. Do not rush or get desperate, only cooperate, remember "is not just to win, is to reach" And while walking, trust that the Lord is with you. "³⁰ The LORD your God, who is going before you, will fight for you, as he did for you in Egypt, before your very eyes, ³¹ and in the wilderness. There you saw how the LORD your God carried you, as a father carries his son, all the way you went until you reached this place.” Deuteronomy 1:30-31

"Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord and He shall lift you up." James 4:10
