Seasons

Tonight, as I was cleaning my home, I heard clearly “Start putting away your summer wear and shoes.  I won’t lie, my only task that I had for myself this evening was to deep clean my kitchen. 
 
I grumbled a little, knowing that the task that was being requested of me would take me a while to complete. I immediately began sorting through my shoes/clothes and heard God speak.  HE said, DeVita, I need you to pack away everything placing them on the top shelf out of reach--they’re not needed in this season.   The time for those items has come and gone.  Just like the old you.  I placed you on this reset to focus on who you’re becoming.  Layers that once kept you comfortable are now uncomfortable.  I’m doing a great work in you.  I’ve taken off so many layers that were keeping you bound and gave you comfort and strength to keep going.  No one knows but you and I what you’re experiencing.  
 
The pieces of the old you that are falling off, is revealing the new you. One that will bring more souls to me.  They will see what I’ve done and continue to do through you. Do not lose focus, this season of awakening will hurt.  You will experience unimagineable pain and great losses, but I am and will be there with you.  I will send you a great comfort and you will release it all to me. Do not be afraid.
 
Now, all day today I kept feeling as if my heart were breaking.  I mean, I can literally feel it.  A feeling of anxiousness came over me.  
 
Once I finished cleaning, I was instructed to open a package that I received months ago from my brother.  I had purchased some woodwork when I visited Colorado 3 almost 4 years ago and he finally got around to send it to me…LOL.  My mind went to my big sister, I had started to text her when she actually called. She confirmed everything that I had been feeling all day.  I didn’t share anything with her prior too, other than I felt like my heart was breaking. 
 
We chatted for a while as I opened the package.  I shared that I had forgotten what the woodwork said.  As soon as I opened the box, the sign appeared brand-new and it read
“Hands to Work Hearts To God”  The irony of it all, a few months back in July, I met a women who said from the first time meeting me “That my hands were blessed to write”.  Tonight I declared that my hands were/are my ministry. God has blessed me with the ability to cook/bake and write.
 
I don’t know what God is doing, I just know that I need to be obedient in this season and each one thereafter.  


 #BecomingMe requires a level of solitude, patience with oneself to truly hear what you need for the next level! I can PROMISE you this, MY people, MY tribe KNOW how important this is to ME! And even if they do not, I’m STILL focused on what I need in this season! Some may be able to join me, many will not. There is absolutely no love lost, there is actually a greater love there. Everyone and everything cannot go! And it’s OK. 


Every day is a challenge and a reward at the same time!
