Cancelled a word that brings a great deal of emotional baggage with it.
Many times when I was younger I would be excited about events or meeting with friends and then I would get a phone call and it was cancelled. How my heart would drop.
This year has been different, all the regulations and rules around covid have made life a bit disappointing, yet God whispers, “I’ve got this”.
So I rest.
The Government may be able to cancel gatherings, limit our social life but they can never cancel God’s movement in the earth. They cannot cancel life for Jesus is Life so, life will go on and it will be what it will be. God will still be on the Throne, the Head, the Ruler no one can cancel His power and authority.
God’s people can still gather, in smaller groups, but still they can worship and praise God, listen to his word and spend time with each other encouraging and praying for one another. Fellowship is not cancelled, creativity makes a way to stay connected.
God’s got this, He has got a plan even in all cancellations.
Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you, They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.”
An Adventurous Life 
Amen to all of it! #7

I’m visiting from FMF. I purposefully wrote my post before visiting the links, but love the common thread our posts share. God is in control and we can trust His plans are good. What a beautiful and inspiring post!

It’s funny ’bout the alphabet,
change cancel’s last ‘L” to an ‘R’,
and you’ve got my life all set
and you’ve found my shining star
for cancer may just seem a curse,
and ‘terminal’ a vicous fate,
but I see it in reverse,
and I can enjoy this plate
of blessing which God has provided
for my last and bright repast;
good and bad are not divided,
and I’ve not been built to last,
but in my life His love is known
ere the day He calls me home.
