Rude Awakening BY: KB 6.25.15

Man oh man oh man…..I’ve consistently shared that I get up at about 2:30 am every morning. The practice became habit when I started dating someone but before that I would keep a notebook by my bed because I would wake up all through the night and write down things that plagued my dreams. Well, last night I was up at midnight, knowing full well that I get up at 2 am….I’m up texting conversation with two of my friends…… I’m saying all this to say that I woke up with a revelation from God.

After one conversation that left me second guessing, assuming and full of presumption I was fixated on this thought while I was driving into my office “People who don’t pay attention are in for a rude awakening….” I mean, I was like a hamster in a wheel with this thought. I just kept coming back to it over and over again because I have tendency to check out and get into my thoughts and my head; living in the mental abyss…hence the term rude awakenings. But, the Spirit of the Lord revealed to me that I was looking at the situation wrong. I was playing the victim and not looking at my part in how things play out in my life. The Spirit revealed that I was living in “comatosia” and praying for utopia.

Colossians 3:2      Set your minds on things that are above, not on things that are on earth.

Proverbs 4:25      Let your eyes look directly forward, and your gaze be straight before you.

Matthew 6:33       But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.

2 Peter 1:10      Therefore, brothers, be all the more diligent to make your calling and election sure, for if you practice these qualities you will never fall.

2 Timothy 1:7      For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.

Galatians 6:5      For each will have to bear his own load.

My ability to focus and fixate is not necessarily a negative if I lean into my faith and trust God

How ya livin’ ?!!!!
