I've been on what I now know as a "sabaticle" .. about three months ago I gave an immediate resignation letter .. it was like a blanket was thrown over my entire life ..I didn't know what was happening to me .. felt like I was free falling into another demention, time , place . somewhere I have never known I can tell you That ...not scared or confused just didn't understand ..But now I do..
today the answer came.. I have spent the last three months back alone with God . No, I mean "alone" with God ..no job,no friends except on cc.. No going anywhere .. Just alone with God ..
I woke up this morning, said good morning to Him.
made coffee , opened the sliding glass door and sat with Him in the morning of the new dawn.. I looked around and the veil began to lift ...a whisper came "garden of Eden". I was like "HUH????????!!!!"
I looked around me , then looked out ... Lush green trees.. Water that circles the lake around me nearly full, ducks,geese, cranes flying in .. Birds singing ..
I asked God .." is THIS what it was like back with you in the beginning??"
I'm still trying to wrap my mind around it .. It would explain everything entirely going on
Not secular , but spiritually..
I began smiling ,I'm still smiling .. I don't have any stress, I talk to God like He's a real person ..right here in every aspect of my life ... how I've made it financially this long and how god has positioned me to get me to this point is beyond me . but it brings to full circle everything going on ... lol!!
wr are quite silly to think we wont get what we've asked for .. I asked .. What was it like with you in the beginning ? can you show me? Well.. Here i am. In it ... lol!! I can't help but lean my head back and laugh out loud with Him ..
Wow guys !! just wow!!!

The beginning was before we messed it up, worrying about what is good and what is evil. Then it was all blessing, just like that morning. Do you know the old hymn "Morning Has Broken"?

No I haven't heard that ... I agree with you .. In the beginning before we messed it all up.. but when God told us to transform our mind "our thinking " and believe Him..
Who we are
who is in us
That He will take care
He will guide
He will restore
he will rebuild
Etc...
Where He takes us In spirit , separately , in the areas He has renewed is amazing !!

Isaiah 51:3
The Lord will surely comfort Zion and will look with compassion on all her ruins; he will make her deserts like Eden, her wastelands like the garden of the Lord. Joy and gladness will be found in her, thanksgiving and the sound of singing.

Ezekiel 36:35
They will say, “This land that was laid waste has become like the garden of Eden; the cities that were lying in ruins, desolate and destroyed, are now fortified and inhabited.”

Revelation 22:1
[ Eden Restored ] Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb

22*Then the angel showed me the river of the water of life, as clear as crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb 2*down the middle of the great street of the city. On each side of the river stood the tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, yielding its fruit every month. And the leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations. 3*No longer will there be any curse. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in the city, and his servants will serve him. 4*They will see his face, and his name will be on their foreheads. 5*There will be no more night. They will not need the light of a lamp or the light of the sun, for the Lord God will give them light. And they will reign for ever and ever.

8*I, John, am the one who heard and saw these things. And when I had heard and seen them, I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who had been showing them to me. 9*But he said to me, “Don’t do that! I am a fellow servant with you and with your fellow prophets and with all who keep the words of this scroll. Worship God!”

10*Then he told me, “Do not seal up the words of the prophecy of this scroll, because the time is near. 11*Let the one who does wrong continue to do wrong; let the vile person continue to be vile; let the one who does right continue to do right; and let the holy person continue to be holy.”

12*“Look, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to each person according to what they have done. 13*I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.

14*“Blessed are those who wash their robes, that they may have the right to the tree of life and may go through the gates into the city.

16*“I, Jesus, have sent my angel to give you[a] this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, and the bright Morning Star.”

17*The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let the one who hears say, “Come!” Let the one who is thirsty come; and let the one who wishes take the free gift of the water of life.

1 Peter 2:6
For in Scripture it says: “See, I lay a stone in Zion, a chosen and precious cornerstone, and the one who trusts in him will never be put to shame.”
Revelation 14:1
[ The Lamb and the 144,000 ] Then I looked, and there before me was the Lamb, standing on Mount Zion, and with him 144,000 who had his name and his Father’s name written on their foreheads.
