From The Dust Arise

Shake yourself from the dust and arise; be seated, O Jerusalem; loose the bonds from your neck, O captive daughter of Zion. Isaiah 52:2

Walk it Out

Walk it out

Now Walk it Out

Walk it out

Now Walk it Out

Walk it out

I said do it how you do it gone and walk it out….

If you are like me, this highly catchy yet inappropriate song by UNK reminds you of America’s Best Dance Crew. Nevertheless it gets stuck in my head every time I hear someone say (in serious conversation) something along the lines of “you need to live by faith and just Walk It Out daily.” I always snicker at these improper times and then find myself awkwardly trying to explain how the mental image of JabbaWockeeZ dancing to praise music is bouncing around in my head. It is most uncomfortable.

Well this song has been stuck in my head all day because it’s what I am doing. Walking it out with Him. God is dealing with some tough insecurities in my life right now, and the more I work though it the harder it gets. My only hope is in Him, I am clinging to Him and His word and taking it step by step. (ok great, now I have New Kids on the Block stuck in my head) UGH!!

But really, in all seriousness I am clinging to the hope of brighter days to come. Days when this battle is over ad God has come out victorious. I find small comfort in the fact that I am not running away or blaming others for this, like I usually do. I am choosing to trust the Lord with my heart, when in the past I would question him and just take matters into my own hands. I am aware that these difficulties stem from me and my own insecurities and incorrect perspective of the situation, and I am working through it.

I am trying to rely on Gods promises and not dwell on my circumstances.

Proverbs 3:5-8 Trust in the lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths. Be not wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord, and turn away from evil. It will be healing to your flesh and refreshment to your bones.

And Just in case you are wondering; what the heck is America’s Best Dance Crew and the JabbaWockeez. I have attached an awesome compilation I found on YouTube. And yes if I ever end up in Vegas again I will drop the dough to seem them live!!! They have shows twice daily at the Monte Carlo on the strip in Las Vegas. Tickets are $52.
