Morgan Brittani Daniels: Miss. Morgan-Brittani

Valentine's Day is almost here. Some of us maybe feeling impatient and overwhelmed. Today I am here to tell you that there is NO NEED TO BE feeling that way. This week God has shared with me that he has handled everything that I think is challenging me in life. I am going to share today with you what God has told me in hopes to renew your hearts and minds.

I mentioned in my prior blog, I had changed schools. This transition has been both a fun and stressful one. As a new student, I had to go seek guidance from the transfer counselor about my credits when she told me that I maybe graduating earlier than expected. Some of you guys may say this is great news. However, it completely threw me off. You see I am a planner. Then, just like that God completely changed the plan. I was starting to feel overwhelmed by this and did not know what to do. I had started to doubt if I heard God correctly not only in the aspect of my life but other aspects as well.

The other morning, while having my morning devotion my mind began to feel even more overwhelmed. I kept crying out to God saying, “speak to me, speak to me.” I was starting to feel confused and anxious. God had told me of his plans, however, everything that he said would happen had not occurred and some things have even changed. I was beginning to feel impatient. In this moment, God led me to open up my bible and read Philippians 4:6 which says, “Don't worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need and thank him for all he has done.” Then I continued to read Romans 12:12 (I encourage you to read this verse).

After reading the scriptures, I told God, “I trust in you. I know that you still have a plan over my life and that you are trying to teach me to be patient and not depend on anything of this world.” The next day I went to the grocery store with my life in God’s hands. Walking down the aisles of the store I begin to see flowers. EVERYWHERE. Not only flowers but I also saw seeds. In that moment I realized something that truly changed my life. God has planted seeds within me. These seeds were planted within me from the day he decided that he was going to create a Morgan-Brittani. However, the seeds needed to grow. I need to be able to depend on him even when it hurts. No matter what the circumstances.

In this moment, I began to see everything that I have been through with God by my side. I saw every tear he wiped away and every wound he healed. He nurtured me the same way you would nurture a flower you would want to grow. What he has planned for me can not be done without him. He has told me, “With patience and dependence on me alone I will turn you into one of the beautiful flowers you see in front of you right now.”

In this season of your life, you maybe impatient for something that you feel God has promised you. Just know that God is handling it. The God we serve is a forgiving, loving and trustworthy one. God knows what your heart desires. He planted seeds in your life just like he did in mine. He wants you to be the most beautiful flower in the garden and that is why he is taking his time to put everything together.
