I recently had a vision of myself standing on a circular platform with my life ( in the form of a community) in front of me. As I stood there, God started trimming and removing things; including most of the platform until I was standing on tiptoe on the very edge of the platform. NO room to even wiggle it seemed. Then God started cutting out pieces of the "community", things I just knew I needed. As I opened my mouth to protest, God said, "Trust me, you really don't need it." In a instant I made the choice to trust God and I was at peace. I marveled that I did not even have trouble or strain to stand on tiptoe on the edge of that platform. All around the outside of my life was a nothingness, dark and fearful. Yet, I was not afraid and knew that I would not fall as God spoke to my heart that He was holding me there - not me. He had always been holding me up. NOT ME. But, I had to be willing to let God.... I encourage you to not fight against the pricks as God told Paul that he was doing, but ALLOW God to do what needs done to get you where you need to be in God's Kingdom. Allow God to cut and trim that which you may think you need. Allow God to remove those things that actually hinder you from His purpose!
Please take a moment to listen to the following message (all of it) - also about things that are gone!
