A part of me wanted to, yet a part of me didn’t want to toss the unsuccessful prepped canvas out.  It looked impossible to paint a masterpiece on! I did pay a high price for the canvas, here I messed it up!

While I thought about this, the Lord dropped something into my spirit. He doesn’t waste anything! Honestly, I have viewed myself as a waste, a wreck, and unfixable! I have circumstances that look like a mess! I have friendships that need restoration. I love my friends very much! God gave them to me. The enemy comes in and plants seeds of discord. The Lord spoke to me several weeks saying, “Am I not a God of restoration? Behold, I’m doing a new thing. What the enemy intended for harm is going to be a seat for angels because My glory will be evident.” I began shouting all over my apartment. When you receive a word from God there are no questions!

God promises that if we allow Him to work, praise, and thank Him for what is coming, the outcome will be glorious!

God has used it to bring my faith up to a greater level!

Yesterday evening I set the canvas up to paint my masterpiece. As I worked beauty and inspiration began transpiring!

… “he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:” Philippians 1:6 KJV

“Behold, I will do a new thing; now it shall spring forth; shall ye not know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.  Isaiah 49:19 KJV

Your circumstance is not going to end in despair! Trust God, pray, praise, and thank Him in the wait!
