Speekhout farm - the previously under&dirty dog that became the Father's lounger where He can sit as our honored guest👐
It took 8 years for God's vision to reform this farm and with that, our hearts. Under the same tree that we made an offer to purchase this Pandora's box, is where God came to honor us as His beloved. This is our story, from miry clay to feet upon the Rock: it is either your stumbling stone or it is your Chief Cornerstone. This is our Revival farm, the place God chose to bring us low so that we could be Revived. For man in his fallen state it becomes simple, yield or become more abased. Eyes wide open yet sees nothing. Today I set before you life & death: choose Life!
Our friend, a salted boer from Bronkhortspruit told us too late, that the moment you put something behind a gate, it becomes your baas. Whether it is fauna & flaura, or people. We open and close those farm gates every single time. To keep this sort of thing in and that sort out. I can't agree more with good fences making good neighbors, it is as true as the Gospel!
It takes time to be with God. We need time with God. It's busy on the farm, even busier when its dry. Precious Life Giving Water keeps everything alive. Waterworks and sunlight. The sum of water pipes over distances with solar/electric pumps, or gravity fed relays. It rules everything, it governs life on the farm. We need to sit still and be still. We want to be still so that we can not hear our own voices reminding us of that thing that needs to be done before its forgotten. We just want to be ourselves here with God, without the tasks required to keep everything going that we have created since we moved here. There is a line for us all to choose consciously with our wills. At this point, we want nothing else than God's will for this farm and our lives on this farm.
Jesus said, “What can I do for you?”
The blind man said, “Rabbi, I want to see.”
“On your way,” said Jesus. “Your faith has saved and healed you.”
In that very instant he recovered his sight and followed Jesus down the road.
Mark 10:51-52 The Message
So for the new year, we want to take time to be with God and change our paradigm on this farm. Is it possible? We will never know now will we, unless we risk to find out
