Well except that you may not mind that it bothers your maker to see you get trashed and being used as part of convenience for a festive period. But that's not who you are. You are a very special treasure, a beautiful work of creation and adorable daughter of the King.
I sat on the WC earlier in the day, getting tissue to clean up and as I dropped it in to press the flush button, I felt the Lord saying to me 'that is how some of my daughters are waiting to be used, drop off and flushed away' . That made me sad I must confess. I stood there and tried to re-process what I've just done and imagining that happening to God's daughter is enough to make the heart of any father bleed, how much more your Lord who died and paid the ransom for your beautiful and precious soul.
My beloved and darling sister, perhaps you are already making plans to go spend Christmas break with that guy, stop! think again. God is speaking ahead because He wants you preserved from being used like a tissue and dumped like a trash. That is not befitting for the daughter of the Most High.
You are a new creation, you are no more in any condemnation. Do not take the liberty of this new life for granted and the grace in vain.
If you truly understand what we are celebrating at Christmas, will Jesus be glad to find you where you are hibernating on HIS special day??? Is your presence in his house and sleeping over honouring to the name of Christ?
Does it really bother you that Jesus calls you special? God never lies. When He declared in Jeremiah 31: 3 saying:
"......“Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love;Therefore with loving-kindness I have drawn you.", He meant every bit of what He said.
If it has happened to you before, and you have been healed, it will not be wise to position yourself in that vulnerable situation. Satan has mapped out strategy of mass-molestation and you must not position yourself to be caught as a prey in that trap.
I can understand that waiting on God can be excruciatingly frustrating. Hopefully, your parents, family, and friends aren’t bugging you about how long they are having to wait for you to get married. Hopefully, too, your unsaved friends aren’t badgering you about waiting for marriage at all, as if living in sin is better than being married anyway. You would not have needed to wait nearly this long to to get it right maritally if you could marry just anything to change status.
When we trust that the good things God teaches us in His Word are better than throwing in the towel out of impatience; however, we realize that giving up on Him can only harm us.
Waiting can only be true agony when you don't trust the Person for Whom you're waiting.
Our God is trustworthy, dependable and reliable. He has shown His faithfulness to those who truly waited for Him. He is coming back again soon for those who have endured and suffered long to see His will done in them. You are not a hopeless case, why make yourself look like one. You have a father who never lost a battle, He is fighting on your behalf daily.
If you have to be with family or friends this Christmas, God's joy will fill you to overflowing. You may be a source of blessing to the people around you when you radiate the source of your strength which is God's joy.
May the Lord grant us the grace to wait as long as He would have us wait, and to wait with patience, hope, and even joy.
Spend Christmas around people who will celebrate your presence and not with a user whose sole aim is to dump you even before the new year.
Did I sound a little bit harsh? I love you so much my Sister but Jesus loves you best, He died for you.
