Are You Turning 40 and Looking for a Profound Life Change?
Have a great day!
Maybe its strange..but I wanted to “announce” that today, I turn 40!! At 12:28pm specifically….
I looked up the significance of the year 40 in the bible and it has to do with a time of trial…of purifying.
As I contemplate my life …my whole…long life.:-)…and compare it with the work that God has done in me during just the past year alone…I say in confidence of what God has done and in faith and in expectancy of what God is doing, that I am coming to the end of a trying time…and entering into a new time of freedom. Some patterns of old are being broken. Things that were once in the dark are being exposed to God’s light. Lies that were introduced and accepted when I was young are being rooted out and rejected to be replaced with God’s truth. Jesus has been so faithful, so sweet, so tenacious, so relentless in His pursuit of me and in His pursuit of my wholeness…sometimes whether I like it or not.
God willing, I will have at least 40 years more. There will be more trials, more times of purifying. There will be adversities and moments of darkness.
But I am firmly convinced that because of God’s work in me, and the ways He has supplanted what the enemy sowed for evil with His goodness, truth and light, that I will be more then a conqueror through Christ who will finish the GOOD work He began in me. OUR GOD IS A REDEEMER KING. May my life give testimony to His goodness.
Join with me in rejoicing in this truth, yes?
