Numbers and ages and numbers.

3 Nov

Approaching 30.  Things gotta get done.  All.I’m.Sayin. 

After not talking to or hearing from my Pastor of 12 years in forever, he called me out of the blue the other day just to tell me that God had put it on his heart to have me read Numbers 23:19-20.  He said that what may seem like luck to me is an ordained blessing that’s been placed on my life and that it’s in fact not by chance but by the “master plan” that I have favor, or should I say “divine favor”.  Anyway, I’m sure that my whopping 3 readers don’t believe in that stuff and have grown quite tired of hearing me ramble about all my Bible thumpin’ church background, but it wouldn’t surprise me if some greater power was at work on my behalf.  I remember receiving “prophecies” and whatnot throughout my childhood and early adult life claiming that I would be and do things that I would never expect or imagine and often referring to said favor.  Etc etc.  I have church stories that would fill a book and I need to stop constantly bringing everything around to them… point is, I’m thankful– whatever force it be.   

Numbers 23:19-20 

 19God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?

 20Behold, I have received commandment to bless: and he hath blessed; and I cannot reverse it.

I daydream about standing in front of this crowd.

    I need you to translate that bible speak to me! With that said…I like your bible thumpin’ stories. And I do believe in a little bit of the divine!

    :) The scripture is just saying that…Once you’ve been blessed by God, there’s no reversing it…(even if I’m not doing what He would prefer I do with my life/talents/etc). He’s not a God that He should lie, even if I don’t keep up my end of the deal. I have favor. ;) (that’s what it’s saying.)
