Welcome back!

A few blogs ago I mentioned how much of a hard time I’m going through, but through it all, all I could think or at least make myself remember is the verse on Romans. When Paul writes how nothing in this world, above and beyond, will ever separate us from the love of God. Even if in those moments, that verse sounds like a lie.

A week ago I was blessed enough to get invited(or to finally say yes and go through with it) to go to a new church. Now, I’ve been trying to organize my thoughts to write it all, but for now, just deal with me for a little haha.

I’ve been to the same church for over two years since moving countries. While that place has been such a great blessing over my life, last week I got to experience God the way I did on my first retreat 5 years ago. Not that I haven’t experienced God in my current church, which I have. But if you know, you know. The Holy Spirit just moved… differently. Just like It did 5 years ago when I fell to my knees and couldn’t stop crying. I’m telling you this because I need you to paint a picture.

That night, God reminded me so closely, how much He was there when I wanted to stop breathing, He reminded me He was present the day my friend passed away, He reminded me how much He was there when I wanted to stop believing in Him. The way and words and even the expressions He used that night, made it for me, impossible to not believe that there IS a God, but not any God, Him.

During the service, one of the verses the Pastor shared was Geneses 4:10

“The Lord said, “What have you done? Listen! Your brother’s blood cries out to me from the ground.”

The Pastor highlighted the idea of the blood crying out from the ground to Him. Which, if you ask me, is crazy to think of. God heard the ground talking because of the blood that was beneath it. Now, why was it crying? that’s a whole other story in itself, but…

Reading this brought my heart to an interesting place. It reminded me, of me, of how I was like that blood underneath the ground, the ground which God heard crying from.

He really did knit us together, huh?

That verse will forever be a highlight in my life. It reminded me that no matter how deep I go, His love will bring me right back to Him. I want to tell you so much, and get into detail about so many things, but, that’ll have to wait for now.

All I can tell you is, don’t you ever forget He is a God of promises, He is a God of His word. The same way He said there was gonna be a flood and it happened, the same way He has promised there will not be anymore. The same way He promised a land to His people, the same way it happened. He is God.

A God that will go above and beyond to have us so close because He knows us so well, He knows we won’t survive a day separated from Him. As much as He is when everything is going well, as much as He is when everything goes upside down and up again.

I don’t have too much to share today, but I didn’t want more days to pass by without being a reminder to you that God is still good. He is just… so much more and greater and everything else in between. His love really is everlasting.

Now, before we close up. The title of this blog is actually the title of a song that I recognized that night at church. I hadn’t been able to listen to worship music in months, but my heart and mind clicked and recognized it because it was something constant in my life. It was something my senses were used to. See? the thing with us and God is that, there’s so much more to it. Remember when I wrote you about how I wanted God to make me remind me how constant and committed I was? Well, He did, with a single music note.

I went back to the heart of worship acknowledging that it’s all about Him. I went back and I want to go back to it as many times as I need because it’s all about Him.

And just like that, we have reached the end of this blog, being reminded about God. Just Him, no more name tags. Thank you for reading me once again, until next time, and may He keep you steadfast.
