"Naked Humility"

One big colossal mess, The Lord had to undress, address and redress, when He happened upon the "homeless existence" that used to be me. Homeless, not in the sense of me not having a roof over my head, but irrespective of my former behavior, not residing within the confines of my Lord and Savior's Sanctuary. Yet, He saw fit to keep me protected and sheltered from all that I brought upon myself and probably deserved.

After having been stripped naked of that attire that I used to adorn, He commenced to cleanse me from the inside out, before He dressed me in His Unmistakable Garments, re-identifying me as His Own. Although His Love did not compel Him to disown me, I was in much need of His Undeniable Markings in order to reestablish myself within His Identity, the One that He has always had for me. Walking around in "Naked Humility."

Looking at old pictures, pondering, albeit briefly, "what was I thinking?" Revelation has a way of revealing things to you, when you once thought that you were "too cute for correction." I stood in much needed correction.

When your thoughts are no longer those of your own, maturity in the Greatness that is The Lord, indicates just how much you have grown. The Beautiful thing about Growth lies in the fact that it never stops Growing. It beckons you to Grow with it, dismissing the stagnancy of the illiteracy of non-growth, compelling a Greater Understanding in the realm of the continuation of more of the same. Growth.

"Naked Humility" has a way of bringing about a supernatural sensibility, whose Ownership is as undeniable as the markings on the New garments that you adorn, after having been formerly dressed in the ways of the world, ripped, shredded and torn.

No, new wine must be poured into new wineskins. (‭Luke‬ ‭5‬:‭38‬ NIV)

Thanks to "Naked Humility," and my New Supernatural Sensibility. It is not that of my own, for it comes from The Lord, and in Him, I have Grown.

"God Never Fails"

When my back was pressed squarely against the wall and I was being attacked, defenseless and injured, waiting to die, yet still alive, I felt the magnificent Presence of The Lord swoop right on in and rescue me from everything that salivated in destroying me. It is amazing to live out the scripture of God's Amazing Gospel: "I have never seen the righteous forsaken" (Psalm 37:25).

In those moments, God kept reassuring me that my Life was not that of my own, but that of His. And only "He" has the final say in what ultimately happens to me. Oh, He saved me from myself and the mess that I got myself into. Then He had the audacity to save me yet again, picking me up from my Prostrated Position of Praise, and told me to continue to serve Him and only Him.

His reassurance in me facilitated a Stronger and immeasurable belief in Him. You see, when you get and Become closer to God, you are innately pulled further away from the ways of the world and because of that, the world will hate you for it. No servant is greater than his master (John 15:20) and since they did it to King Jesus, I should expect nothing less to little old me.

I serve an awesome God!
I serve a merciful God!
I serve a relentlessly Loving God!
I serve a permanently Victorious God!
I serve the ONLY living God and I will Praise Him ALL the days of my Life, irrespective of.

In my weakness, I am made strong (2 Corinthians 12:10). Therefore, I declare every weakness that composes my existence, knowing that through my Heavenly Father, I have been made strong and my realization of such enormous Strength have been revealed during the tests that He has allowed me to endure, thus compelling the Highest Praise unto the Mighty to Save, solidifying the Greatest Testimony, authored and orchestrated by the Greatest!

Only You Lord!

I beseech Your Wisdom, Knowledge and Understanding by way of drawing even nearer to You, that I may be in the Presence of Your Holy Greatness and afforded the opportunity to just touch the hem of your garment in order to facilitate the impartation of Your Wisdom, Your Knowledge and Your Understanding, not with the intent to be You Lord, with the intent to be more like You Lord. In Jesus Name!

Through it ALL, I know first hand, that "God Never Fails."
