An October morning of 2022 I had dreamt these words to the point when I awoke it was engrained in my mind.
"I see upon the way you walk and I will walk with thee."
It was like a reward for how I have been trying to live in His word and His ways and He was saying "I am walking with you and you with me." He choosing to walk with me. It was an emotional morning...
It was such a blessing.
I tried to google those word's and the only thing that came close to my feeling, was this song by Randy Travis. A new favorite, Just A Closer Walk With Thee.
But this wasn't the first time for me. As titled above, Adonai El Roi, The God Who Sees me. The first time I ever felt God saw me was as I said in my testimony, in Florida. Life was upside down, despair, felt my book had reached it's last chapter with where my life I thought was headed. A friend had suggested I go to a church in Florida and it might make me feel better. I was thinking about it and funny thing was while eating out, there was a table card for a church nearby and talked about baptism. Do you know I messaged them on Sunday and they were back to me on Monday to baptize me the next Sunday?!
When I arrived to the church, the pastor to baptize me wanted some of my history and to get to know me. Well, those who know me, I don't hold back! I shared the pain I had just experienced and back story. We bonded I guess you could say.
When all was done, I dried off, changed clothes, and sat alone to listen to the sermon. WOW. I cannot remember it to share now; and I keep thinking I want to see if they have the sermon that morning saved. But, it wasn't just me who was wowified, oh no. The pastor who baptized me...I went to thank him at the end of service, and as I approached him, he took his glasses off and made them cockeyed on his face and said "did you hear that message for you?!!!" Hahahaha it was an amazing morning.
Then I got home, dressed to walk the beach; my daily routine. As I was getting ready I had KLove on and a song I had never head began. It crept into my soul and I dropped to the floor sobbing. It felt as if God was singing this important message to me. That I am His and the past is now gone. I am His new creation. The song is 'Tell Your Heart to Beat Again' by Danny Gokey. The words and timing not uncanny, just God.
