Treasure Hunt #1 Lesson
Don't be afraid.
Don't be afraid.
so i'm reading the Ultimate Treasure Hunt book and i receive a word from the Spirit to go to Starbucks and all of a sudden all these clues start flowing in. So I go to a Starbucks and immediately I am stricken with fear to speak to the first person that might match these clues! (Probably because I was alone) So after looking through one starbucks, and ralphs' coffee section I arrive at a 2nd starbucks.
Here I wait as I'm reading my book. One of the items on my list is a green dress and another is a caucasian female, possibly blonde. So a girl walks in, white, blonde, BUT wearing a green top and a plaid skirt. So im like this is it! (even though its not a dress) but then all of a sudden my mind comes up with as to why this might not be it and my mind begins to say "its not a green DRESS though!!" and all these excuses are formed in my mind.
but I know it has to be her because my heart is beating 2038950185 beats per minute and I feel like people at Starbucks can see the blood pumping throughout my whole body. I feel each pump of blood every 0.0005 seconds flowing through my body. and she comes, orders, gets her coffee and leaves. There goes my treasure, there goes a missed opportunity to share of God's love for her all because of my self-preservation.
This is harder than I thought, but I think today was good. God was just sharing with me, your flesh is fearful, but be full of the Spirit the next time, so that you are selfless and are willing to obey me no matter what the cost...
So maybe tonight my sister and i will go out to treasure hunt. Ha! let's see how that goes..
