Give me a minute.

Excellent Morning!

So, in my reading this morning (still Exodus), Moses is still getting instruction from GOD and the people below are getting restless. They are really geekin’ out so Aaron makes a quick plan to pacify the crowd. Even though they have been given specific instructions and it seems are in no apparent danger they are still trippin’. GOD sees this and tells Moses, “Get yo people before I do!”

I learned a couple of things from this reading.

If you trust someone to lead you somewhere, why would you doubt him or her when they say hold on for a minute? I mean they got you this far. They have been a positive influence in your life. They are preparing something for you and it will be to your benefit. I mean really do you want partial instructions and end up failing in reaching your goals? Perfect example (at least I think so…lol) is Harriet Tubman. If she told you to hold on then you stopped because she was guiding you to freedom but that can’t happen if you are caught. She said stop so she could verify that it was safe to move to the next stop. There were no cell phones….there were no phones PERIOD so it may take a minute before you could go on. Be patient and I know that is hard to do at times. There is nothing wrong with getting an update but you have to be patient. Take this time to work on other things in your life. Your life doesn’t revolve around this one thing so get busy with something else. It amazes me how someone can do something you have been asking them to do and then you doubt them because they didn’t do the other hundred things you asked at the time that they finished that last task. Have you ever said well they did that but they didn’t do this, this, or this. I mean they are HUMAN so it may take a minute but if you see they are working on it give them a minute. They are getting the needed information to ensure that the goal will be reached.

When plans are being implemented and you are Moses’ right hand man then you need to hold it down while he’s gone. He gave specific instructions before he left and Aaron should have been enforcing those laws. If you are in a situation where you are in charge while the number one is gone then you need to act like it. You have been chosen. Moses didn’t just close his eyes, twirl around, throw a rock, and whomever it hit was in charge while he is gone. Unless I read it wrong…. So hold it down for your significant other. Be a support system. Stand up for them when others are in doubt. You know what they can do and what they have already done so be that strong back up. I tell you all the time that I believe in the Batman and Robin relationship. Robin can do everything that Batman can do but Batman is the leader. I feel that Robin is actually stronger because it takes a VERY strong person to let go and let someone lead them anywhere. Now if Batman is outnumbered or hurt then Robin swings into action. Aaron is Robin but he let the people of Gotham City to influence him from the master plan to save the people. (ok, ok, ok… I’m done) You are just as strong as the lead that’s why you are left in charge. Reinforce the goals. Personally, I think Aaron could have organized prayer sessions for Moses’ safety. That way everyone is unified in obtaining the goal. Just my thoughts on the matter.

Faith is believing in something or someone when it seems that there is no forward movement. Stand strong knowing that your best interest is being taken into account. Don’t always believe what your eyes are showing you because it’s what you can’t see happening that sometimes is the best for you. People and things will attempt to sway you from what you know is right because their faith is not as strong. When you listen to doubt you become rigid and attempt to implement a side plan. It’s when you let go of your rigid ways that you find that the world opens up to you. Let the calm wash over your body and KNOW that things will be ok. It may not happen the way that you think it should but it will happen the way that would best suite you.

Today do your part and let go. Check in but be easy. It will happen.

AND remember when you doubt your power; you give power to your doubt.

MAKE IT GREAT
