Why God Sometimes Says ‘Not Yet’?
by Rick Warren |
||
|
“You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised. For, ‘In just a little while, he who is coming will come and will not delay.’” (Hebrews 10:36-37 NIV) If you’re discouraged because of God’s delay in answering your prayers, understand the delay is not a denial. Just because the answer or the miracle hasn’t come yet doesn’t mean God isn’t going to answer or that he’s forgotten you or that he doesn’t care about you. It simply means “not yet”! Part of becoming spiritually mature is learning the difference between “no” and “not yet,” between a denial and a delay. The Bible tells us, “He who is coming will come and will not delay” (Hebrews 10:37 NIV). God’s delay may be a test of your patience. Anybody can be patient once. And, most people can be patient twice. And, a lot of us can be patient three times. So God tests our patience over and over and over. Why? So he can see how patient you are? No! He does it so you can see how patient you are — so you’ll know what’s inside you, and you’ll be able to know your level of commitment. God tests you so that you can know he is faithful, even if the answers you seek are delayed. You may be going through difficult times right now. You may be discouraged because the situation you face seems unmanageable, unreasonable, or unfair. It may seem unbearable, and inside you’re basically saying, “God, I can’t take it anymore. I just can’t take it anymore!” But you can. You can stay with it longer because God is with you. He’ll enable you to press on. Remember, you are never a failure until you quit. Resist discouragement, and finish the race God has set before you. |
MY FAITH IN GOD …….. Crees Blog Entry
Sometimes when you’re going through something, its okay to share. I have been so distant to my family and friends. I hate when I get like this. But I’m just a person who has to get in the presence of the Lord . But when I opened my mind to allow encouragement, its not bad. I don’t want to be prideful. Its okay to need help, its okay LaCrease to need to be uplifted and encouraged. I seem to always want to do the encouraging, but this time its me. Here is my FB post from yesterday.
Went out to my Van this morning… and it was GONE. I promise my Faith is being tested. MY FAITH IN GOD IS OUT OF THIS WORLD…NO CAR, NO JOB. I’m so numb right now to everything that has happened to me in the last year and a half. At the same time… I still feel like I CAN HANDLE MORE PAIN… Its so much.. I can’t even write it. Can’t even tell it, cant even explain it, can’t even think it, cant even talk about it. I’m not even mad… cause if you know ME.. you know I’m not the one to be GEEKED ON “stuff”. I just don’t know whats behind this. I LOVE GOD so much. I want him to always show up in my smile, personality, love for others, love for strangers.. NO MATTER WHAT IM GOING THOUGH. As many crying spells I had today…. I can’t wait to see what God has for me on the other side of this pain. Watch with me everybody Okay?

S Atiya Simm Wil Awww zee! Praying for blessings to come ur way! Thank u for sharing that. Its always something but dont let this get u down! Reinvent yourself. Try something new. You can do it!!!!! -
Veronica Herron When you think you’re down to nothing.God is up to something.you’re close to a break thru just keep your faith. -
Lacrease Walker just now got this email from my baby Nesha Hi Mommie!I love you! Like I love you very very veryyyyyyyyyyyy much!I just really wanted you to know how much you mean to me. And How you are ALWAYS there for me when I am going through something. Sometimes God moves us because we are so comfortable with the routine that we are in. We need to understand that He is always in control, NOT our daily routines, rituals, calendars, or appointments that we make to “stay in control”.He is. So! With that being said, I’m okay with this change, and I hope you are too J (I can tell that you are.) It’s a learning experience for everyone that we came in contact with today. I don’t know about you, but im inspired to CONTINUE to service the public and do what I’m supposed to do. Keep being nice! I believe that we are on the right track. I’m not even mad at the person who HAS the car. LOL I can care less about them fools. But I am still thinking about them officers was acting. I just can never understand how people want to be in the career of PUBLIC SERVICE, but is the exact opposite of the JOB DESCRIPTION! I don’t get it! Lol.
Anyway doe *Kat Stacks Voice* We are going to be fine. Lol I been to the mountain top!
Loll But baaaaaby Mark your calendar because we are taking a trip to ATLANTA. I wanted to go somewhere for our BDAY but the days are stupid lol just looked at the calendar.
I want to book our flights soon. Maybe in April? That way WE will definitely make a super effort to go! Don’t worry about hotel, money, or flight. ALL you got to do it plan the thing about where we will stay and what not.
Ok I love you! Plan the trip! Im serious! I want to go away for our BDay! We never did that before! Let’s do 4-5 days. Let’s GO!
Ok Love you babes! Talk to you after the show goes off to talk about how we liked it.

YOU AREEEEE MY CRE’ A WOMAN OF GOD! I’m sending a private msg. later. Right now I’m going to sleep I’ve read enough to make ME feel better… I’m back in my head. You’re a blessing even through YOUR STRUGGLES. I Love You Babe!!!! I Know Things Are Getting Better For You… I’m going to *watch* just like you said because I knowwwwww you’re going to have a testimony that will have me screaming for you.Tania Barnes-Patterson Cree… a lot of people don’t know but 2 years ago I was where you are, even worse. Not only without a job, car, etc, I was homeless as well. Literally! My husband and I lost EVERYTHING! We went from having a 4 bdrm, 2 bath, 3000+ square foot home with an in ground pool, to sitting in the dark, in January’s cold with no lights, gas, or water, no jobs, car repoed and an eviction notice right next to me with nowhere to go, and to top that off, was sick with the flu from hell and no medicines but… still clinging to my faith. CLANGIN’!!! So, trust me when I say, “BEEN THERE”! But I MUST tell you, there’s a blessing in the storm. He has restored at least 90% of it all so far and still working. Storms cause damage and destruction… but do you know what happens after it’s finished it’s destruction? The rebuilding of better things… New beginnings! God has a plan. Jeremiah 29:11…. ooh baby and it’s a GOOD ONE. Trust me on this one! I just hear PATIENCE! Activate every ounce of patience and faith you can muster up and hold on tight… for dear life… it’s about to be on and popping! Watch God work. Dig into the Word…pray without ceasing but most of all just believe. ..We need to talk. He loves you so much. HOLD ON!

Sandra Williams Holy Spirit, You were given to us as a special gift personally from Jesus. You know all things and the word of Yahweh our Elohim says that He will never put on us more than we can bear. The Mighty and Powerful never failing Word also states that Elohim is our Battle Ax in the time of trouble. Now, in the life of my dear sister Cree may God arise and her enemies be scattered! In the Name of Jesus and by His delivering Blood, we demand that everything the devil has stolen from her be returned 100 fold. Right now in the Mighty Name if Yeshuah Mesiah may the warring and ministering Angels of the Lord go forth in battle on her behalf and reveal every hidden thing and return to her all that Is hers NOW in Jesus’ Name. Let the thief be located and peace be the portion of Cree in Jesus’ Name. Amen.It’s hard to rest when your heart is heavy. So I’m praying that God floods your heart with peace in the midst of your pain. Don’t let what you’re going through take your life. There’s so much more to you than what’s trying to break you. You’re special and we need you. Keep praying, keep fighting, keep living! #RehabTime

Sheena West OOOO! I love you sooo much honey! I want you to know that the devil attacks us when we are at our best. When you serving others, loving on people, when you walking talk in the glory of God, and when you start living for others and not youself. I love you. You are a warrior in christ and all his followers are in a battle, but the beauty of it all is the war is already won. Remember that the devil only has lies as his weapon, and in a battle he will bring up things from your passed to stop you. He will bring up things that Jesus has chosen to forget. Don’t let him tell you what you already know. everything has been covered by the blood and jesus loves and accepts how you are. No matter what the devil throws your way always remember that jesus is with you for he never forsakes us. His will is always done in the end. Psalms 23 says “ye though I walk in the shadow of death thou art with me. Thy rod and thy staff comfort me. Thy PREPAREST a table in the PRESENCE OF THINE ENEMIES. You continue to do what he calls your heart to and if you and my sister ever need anything call me! Also, if yall run out of places to go for yall birthday I would love to show yall around California!<3! -
Lacrease Walker THANK YOU ALL SO VERY MUCH.. AWWW Sheena West * HUGS*

Out of My Comfort Zone Crees Blog Entry
Sitting here thinking about my life. Who would have guessed it would be this way? No…… not that its bad. What I mean is……God knows me… so well…. LOL He knew if someone had asked me the end of 2012, would I have moved out of my 4 bedroom brick home for the life I have now? My answer would be NO. Never in a million years.
See…. that’s the beauty in God.
He knew that if I had a peek into my NOW future, that I would have stayed in my comfort zone. He knew it. He knew it. He knew it. He knew it. He knew it. He knew it.
I have “narrow down” my closet of friendships that does not fit me at this time in my life. I have realized that I have changed in my way of thinking, and looking at things. God is moving me forward and preparing me for something GREAT. I feel it. I know it. I’m being prepared for GREATNESS. I’ve been tried in every arena this last year and a half. If I think about it too hard.. I’ll either cry or FLEX my muscles. LOL God has really moved me COMPLETLY out of my comfort zone. I cannot go back to life as I once knew it. I can never get so comfortable that its hard to “move” again. I am officially on the move. I am no longer doing things LaCreasea’s way. I am no longer in charge. God has made that CLEAR to me. All I can do right now… is throw my hands up and surrender. And as “tired” as I am fighting…. I GLADLY SURRENDER. *smiling*
For a woman such as myself… who has always been in charge… this is really… I MEAN REALLY a humble beginning. I have totally surrendered myself to the fact where I am blindfolded, walking with a cane, and God holding my right arm. I can’t even explain this like I want to… some will get it. God has shown me that everything I have asked for he gave to me. Jobs, homes, my one and only daughter, the best friends, the best parents, the best sisters and brother. I’ve never been without.
God has truly been good to me. I can never Thank him enough for sending someone special into my life. This person has told me time and time again these things that’s going on right now. Um um um… smh.. I didn’t get any of it then. But I get it now. Still learning.

Women & Relationships *2* Crees Blog Entry
I had to have been around 15 when I read this from the Bible.
2 Timothy 3:6
New King James Version (NKJV)
6 For of this sort are those who creep into households and make captives of gullible women loaded down with sins, led away by various lusts,
I was horrified that one day this could be me. I remember thinking…. God please don’t let me seem gullible to a man where he comes into my life/home and make this Scripture true for ME. Still till this day… I believe with all my heart this is the reason why I NEVER let a man move in with me. Not only that but I never lived with him either. Its bad enough I’ve had my share of “clowns” without living together. And I will say this, women in these types of relationships are breaking up with these men….. after having their babies. That’s when low self esteem comes in, and the woe as me syndromes. Women we’ve got to pay more attention.
This can’t keep working. When it comes to these types of conversations and my friends come to me for advice. IM BRUTAL….. with LOVE. I am Zero Tolerance for this type of relationship behavior. MY advice to this women is this
-
find something about YOURSELF that you LOVE and ADMIRE
-
find out what it is that you like to do , that brings out your personality
I love and enjoy quiet time near The River. I have to make that kind of time for myself. Being near water for me brings a peace and calm…. I’ve never known. Make sure that you PUT THIS TIME ASIDE. It helps me to see life clearer, and the people that’s in it. What brings out my personality is… making small talk with strangers. I enjoy talking to people who are different than myself. They interest me, and I can always learn something new.
The more you get to know YOURSELF…. when “The One” does come along, he will appreciate you more for being YOUR OWN PERSON, not someone who needs HIM to come and “complete” you.
I know its hard being single…. but be a WOMAN who refuse to deal with any and everything, for the sake of “having a man”. And I noticed the SAME WOMEN.. who chose these types of men, are the first ones who will say…. my momma aint trying to help me, my friends aint there for me, don’t nobody care about how I get from A to B. Wont nobody come and pick me up. And I’ll say to them… YOU’RE REALLY MAD AT YOUR BOYFRIEND…because he’s not doing his job by providing a way for you to do those things…… HOW DARE YOU TURN THIS ON YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS!!! These type of women will blame all the names in their cell phones, before they’ll ADMIT… they made a wrong choice in their relationship.
Its okay to live alone, or with your children. Date a man for dear life if you have too. Stop be so submissive to the first man who tells you….. your hair is pretty. Know your own hair is pretty FIRST…. then let him put his AMEN with it. Compliments you’re hearing for the first time from a man… YOU MUST HAVE NEVER TOLD YOURSELF FIRST. So yes… of course it sounds good and special. Get to know YOU. A person is willing to help a single mother faster than they would a woman who has a NO GOOD MAN , sitting on her couch…… PLANT MANAGING A REMOTE CONTROL
Don’t wait around for other people to be happy for you. Any happiness you get you’ve got to make yourself. –Alice Walker

Life Lesson………….. Crees Blog Entry
*Me driving in the video one Summer * Without going into details.. For the last year and a half… I have been though a lot. Mainly with life changes nothing concerning my health, just life changing things to get me out of my comfort zone. My family is fine, and my daughter. It was ME… who needed to learn the LIFE LESSON.
I see things from a different eye. I’m not as sensitive. I feel so strong and so BOSSED UP. Where ever God is taking me… I know for a fact… that I have to be a Strong Woman of God. I am so strong, and so not into the mess and small talk. I am really proud of myself. I am really strong.
I’m so sick of Whining Wimpy Women… attention needing to be on them Women. I’m not dealing with a lot of stuff no more. I’m just NOT!! I’m not putting ANY ENERGY TO ANYONE OR ANYTHING that takes me out of my square.
So……. with that said…… Thank you Jesus for where you are taking me. Thank you for the Life Lesson and the Experience. Its been a bumpy ride…. but you know ME…. I DON’T/WON’T GIVE UP. 🙂

Understanding Misunderstanding….. Crees Blog Entry
There are times when, like job we are misunderstood by people we thought would understand and comfort us. Sometimes even the people who are the closest to us do not understand our struggles, our dreams, our personalities, or our callings from God.
Before my ministry became established. I remember when people misunderstood me because I was too serious for them, They did not like the same things, I did or do things he way I did. Instead, they would ask me, “Why do you act the way you do?”
I look back now and realize that everything I needed to do the work of Joyce Meyer Ministries was already in me. The personality type and qualities that God wanted me to have were already there. God just had to polish me and get me in good working order.
As God is preparing you for His use, and as you are discovering exactly what He wants you to do, you might also feel strange and out of place. You may feel that you do not fit into the regular regimen of what is gong on around you. If you are already feeling strange, you may be tempted to be confused or bothered when people say things such as ” What’s wrong with you? Why do you act the way you do?” Part of your training for leadership is realizing that people will misunderstand you. You have to make up your mind that you are going to stand with God and do what He says even if nobody understands you, agrees with you, or supports you.
I believe He wants to do great things through you, so stick with Him when others do not understand. Most often people who do not understand you do not mean to hurt you, they simply do not understand. ~~ Joyce Meyer

Tery Wilson Im just a straight-forward person who just so happens to be a logical thinker. I was not trying to be rude. I also offered help to her after her friend said the other obsticles she was facing. And I apologized
-
Kat-y Royale Just spoke with her! We’ve got water and pizza on the way! ETA ~15 mins. She’s got a survival pack so I think she’s got blankets and other essential gear.
-
Ashley Leach I’ll ask some students I know that attend GT. -
Tery Wilson Thats just awesome! Glad she’s ok now
-
Tanisha Howard Yeah Tery Wilson apparently they build cars, there are medical supplies, and other “important”things in the building that can’t be left unattended. I don’t know…I just couldn’t leave my friend in that situation
-
Kat-y Royale We’ve got this covered! Thanks guys!!!
-
Tanisha Howard Ashley Leach she has been helped
-
Ashley Leach Ok good, thank you
-
Kat-y Royale Trey, thank you SO Much for your offer! As someone who has to be Gluten-free, as much as I would appreciate the offer of pizza, I wouldn’t actually be able to eat it! SO thank you for offering an alternative if she needed something other than pizza!
-
Kimberly Baker thats awesome…. so now we should delete all of this so those who still need help will rise to the top of the list…maybe? just sayin…. YAY for the helpers!
-
Carol Tomaras FYI, we may be going through all of this again the week of Feb 8 or so. according to TV WALB….please be prepared everyone. Just in case. -
Amy Williams Awesome everyone!! -
Aviva Vuvuzela Are we sure she doesn’t need anything else?
-
Kelly Shelton Evans FYI there are several buildings that do research that are on campus but not exactly part of campus. I think 575 is one of those buildings. Tell Tara she’s doing a great job! If she needs more help just post. GT c/o 1997 -
Kat-y Royale I spoke with her on the phone. She says as long as relief shows up in the morning all she needs is food. She said she had a couple bottles of water, but he offered to run by Kroger to grab a gallon just in case! Will update when the food and water has been delivered
-
Tanisha Howard Kelly Shelton Evans yes that’s it!! Yes I’m going to delete the post…you guys have been so helpful and I truly appreciate you all! You too Tery Wilson lol!!

Autumn Martin Page Tanisha Howard, I tagged you in another comment. I found the list of people by name and area and with numbers to contact them. I am not familiar with the area she is in so if you want to look at it and see. There are a lot of people listed!!! More people have posted assistance as well! Sure do hope you get something to her! Let me know if I can help in any other way!!!! -
Kat-y Royale She’s getting lots of food, apparently! LOL Not sure what Chris brought her! But at least she won’t run out of food
-
Tanisha Howard She actually just called again and said 2 ppl came so whoever else brought her food thank you!!!!

Tanisha Howard Autumn Martin Page someone has helped…thank you!
-
Autumn Martin Page Here is the link to the page with a lot of people listed and how they can help! …. Here is a page to post ONLY what you are able to help with. This group is so clustered with people giving and asking that it is confusing. Here people can go and see listed what is available to them! From individuals helping to any help!https://www.facebook.com/groups/481796348616836/
-
Kat-y Royale My friend said he could help others in the area if needed, so hoping to get a link to that post you were referring to Autumn
-
Kat-y Royale Ooh, so it doesn’t list people that actually need help still?
-
Kat-y Royale My friend was the second person who brought her food. Chris was sneaky! Thankfully she’ll have plenty to eat tonight, and after not eating for 32+ hrs, I’m sure she can use the food!!
-
Chris Davy Yes its done, and hopefully she can fill up. She looked so tired. Anyone else need help in the area, let me know.
-
Kat-y Royale The eagle has landed!!!
-
Autumn Martin Page No it is just a list of people who can help and how they can help… food, bed, tow, phone calls, money. That way people in need can go and just look through for the assistance they are needing instead of having to search for help
-
Tanisha Howard Ooohhhh I thought Chris was the pizza guy…lol!
-
Kimberly Baker there is a map for finding people who need help in the post from admin above^^^^ in the “READ THIS FIRST” post pinned to the top of this page

David and Tamela Mann Crees Blog Entry
I’ve always been a huge fan of David and Tamela Mann the star of many of Tyler Perry plays and movies. Today they uploaded their 25th Wedding Anniversary that was actually last year!!! And it is all that I expected it to be. People will say Beyonce and J-Z is a POWER COUPLE.. Steve Harvey and his wife Marjorie, Will and Jada… but to me this is a “Everything” Couple…. and I just LOVE and admire them dearly. Enjoy.
BE BLESSED

Why Women? Crees Blog Entry
Why Women?
Why do some women… PRIDE themselves on knowing information about someone. Doing research, talking/listening, finding people who are close to the source for * personal* confirmation. EITHER TO JUST KNOW IT… OR TO SHARE IT WHENEVER THEY FEEL THE NEED TO “PULL IT OUT”.
Watching NeNe Leakes pull out Natalie Christopher Williams wife/gurlfriend is a prime example of wanting to put Kandi and Kenya “out there”. There is no way, Nene want the viewers to believe that Kandi’s record is squeaky clean. #sowhat People like this…. make sure that if you like someone, and find them to be cool good people… THESE TYPE OF PEOPLE will make sure they share with you what type of people YOU THINK they are…because in their minds…… they’re making sure you’re not being “deceived”. When in reality its not that serious….. but it is to the person who is telling the story to you. They cringe at the fact that YOU find this person to be good people.
Why will some women…… do anything in their power to let others know… that they were their for YOU… and you wasn’t there for them. Many times people will PRIDE THEMSELVES on making sure that they’re always there for YOU… RAIN, SLEET AND SNOW…..so when they need YOU… you better be there for them. Sad thing is… when Nene tried to make Porsha feel that she’s not a good friend, no matter what Porsha said to her about going through a rough divorce, trying to find a house, moving away from her mom and sister when they clearly wasn’t ready for her to move yet. Nene disregarded the fact that Porsha was having a hard time in her own life….. why would she expect for her to call her with so much going on? Why women fail to just fall back sometimes? I’m very close to my family, and when I’m going through something… ALL I WANT IS GOD. THEY KNOW THIS.. THEY RESPECT MY SPACE. No person can help me. And if you’re going through and you’ve always been there for me… and I share with you MY ISSUES and why I can’t be there for YOU…… FALL BACK.. Let me regroup. Let me get myself together.. I PROMISE to “do you” when I get through my own issue. Women need to STOP depending on PEOPLE SO MUCH to pick up THEIR pieces of their lives, just to hear their stories. I know how it goes…. I use to be the first to call a friend to tell them “what happened”. God was standing in the background begging me to talk to him about it. And when I realized that NOBODY OWES ME NOT ONE OF THEIR EARS….. that’s when I turned to God.. and never turned back. Please get some where on your knees and face to seek God. Nene feelings were either “really hurt”….. because she realized that Porsha didn’t look at her as a “go to person”.. or she just wanted to run a guilt trip in her vulnerable state of mind. I’m proud of Porsha.
