A Relentless Pursuit of Wholeness
2 Corinthians 4:8
We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair.
I could say a lot but this scripture explains my life right now. Never in a million years would I have thought that my life would be where it is right now but this is my reality. I lost my mother and then a week later I lost my grandfather and there is now further trouble ahead. I am pressed on every side but I am not crushed I am certainly perplexed but not in despair. God is a keeper!
There is so much that I do not understand right now, but I am in expectancy of what God is going to do in this season. I am expecting him to do something better than good I am expecting the great. I am not going to give you some Holy Ghost filled testimony of how I am making it, it is but by the grace of God and it sure ain't easy.
I have now this increased since of relentlessness. I will, I have to, I must make it!! It is something about loosing someone so dear to you ... it toughens you up. If you are at the lowest of the low where can you go but up? I am fighting an up hill battle to stay positive and let the enemy know that he can NOT have my family.
God has deposited so many ideas into my sister and I that we would like pour out to bless others. After surviving all that we have in the past months we now realize that there absolutely nothing impossible for God to do and we are in relentless pursuit of his wholeness and pressing forward to bless his people and to live life to the fullest. Every day has not been easy and I know it will not be... I have had some good days, I have had some weary days and I will have some hills to climb... but I won't complain.

ReplyDeletePatrice you are truly amazing. As I sit and read your blog for the third time, I realize that I feel the same way you do, but haven't been able to express it to anyone, I know that we may not understand why things happen, but God does everything perfect, I think he used times like these to push us out of our comfort zones and into an uncomfortable place in order for him to get the maximum glory out of our situations and our lives. I would be lying if I said it didn't hurt, or that its okay, but its never okay going thru what you and a lot of us have endured. I also think God is telling us to continue to praise him thru our praise he is going to nice us from the natural into the supernatural. This is our season, for all the HELL we been thru, all the losses we endured he is going to restore it all back to us. So keep your heads held high and let God do the rest.
