More on the Prince.

MORNING THOUGHTS ☕️

When I wrote on the “prince of peace” yesterday, it reminded me of a convo I had with the Lord on my front porch about a year or so ago.

I was sitting there…honestly, kind of bored. I started reflecting on a season in my life where I was ON FIRE. I mean…I was having dreams, encounters, visions, prophetic words and more. I had several years that were just super INTENSE. I loved it.

Not experiencing all of that on this day, and realizing I had not experienced it in a while, made me question myself. I missed it.

Me: “Lord. What in the world? I miss the FIRE and feeling your presence in that way.”

The Lord: “Well, what are you feeling now?”

Me: “Peace. Tons of peace.”

The Lord: “Well, I AM the prince of peace. You are simply experiencing another aspect of ME.”

Oh my gosh.

Y’all. That helped me so much.

I mean…think about it…do we think anyone we hang out with should be the same alllll the time? Do we not have times with friends where we are belly laughing? Times when we are simply being together and even, perhaps, enjoying a comfortable silence? As we grow in our relationship with someone, a lovely, comfortable. peaceful rhythm can emerge. It’s not amped up all the time. Who could even handle that?!?!

The Lord has so many facets of his being and as we journey through life WITH Him, we get to learn about and experience all of them. What a gift from a friend to a friend.
