I was writing to a friend to keep standing, surviving, waiting and praising. If God gives u a dream, to press on , hold on until you see that dream come true. To think Kingdom wealth, a part of the best kingdom ever, blessed in the city, blessed at home, blessed everywhere. The head and not the tail. Watch out for God when things haven't gone fair in our eyes. He has and always will be in control. Life and people can take what they want but you can't take away favor. We don't die, we multiply. We get double for our trouble. Double portions and blessings. Like David, I told her "just wait, wait on the Lord". the word wait did not leave me alone all morning so I looked it up. God is such a strategists.
"But they that wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint." Isaiah 40:31
"Wait on the LORD: be of good courage, and he shall strengthen your heart: wait, I say, on the LORD." Psalm 27:14
