I had a beautiful about page on my previous site and if you want to know how I started on my writing journey, you're welcome to check it out on https://orderingmayhem.co.za/
However, yesterday, 7th January just before I got the download of my calendar, I was contemplating who I am... who am I ... what are the nuts and bolts that make up Asnée... mmmmhhhh
Boy did I start off on the wrong track... I went straight in there for mother of 2... yes I am that, but there must be more... what happened before that... Uhhh yes.... wife... I'd had to have been a wife before I could have become mother of 2... yes... that's it, then I realised, no my life actually existed before I was married and so I went on to another obvious, like sibling, but more fundamentally a daughter to my parents... and then it hit me... I existed before that...
First and foremost and this is my most favourite place on earth,
first I was a daughter of the Living King, singing and dancing in His almighty Presence and knowing Him... was my first place, my perfect place... my place of rest... my happy place... my place of being... exactly who I am and who I was created to be... and it resonated with me so deeply because that is truly my happy place on earth...
Every morning I love to relish and linger in the Presence of my almighty King and sit at His feet and drink in His Presence, sometimes dancing, sometimes crying (don't know about you but this last year was more crying than dancing) but you get the picture...
I find it hard to move from there into the day, I have to tear myself away and draw myself harshly into the realities of life and the day after having spent hours lingering and relishing the Presence of almighty God... not everyday is hours, somedays it's 10 or 20 minutes, but those days all my other days carry me...
So, who am I, daughter of the most High King, lover of all things created by Him, working out and walking out the nitty gritty everyday fine details of life with a fine toothed comb and the Master leading and guiding me... no day is perfect, but I like to think we're getting a little better everyday... God help us, we will fight the good fight everyday of our lives until we die and meet Him face to face where we dance with Him for an eternity... (that is my dream, perhaps yours is different, neither is wrong), because He made the desires of our hearts and when we align our hearts with His, He gives us the desire of our hearts (Ps 37:4)...thank you Jesus it's also not up to me, cos I would never live up to any of His standards, it's all based on the fact that He loves me, loved me first and will never stop loving me... even to the point of death of 1 third of Himself... Jesus, coming to die in anguish for us... thank You Jesus, thank You God, thank You Holy Spirit.
I love people and I love hearing how they relate to the Lord, what their struggles are in relating to the Lord, I love hearing praying and sharing if the Lord tells me anything that could be helpful to you. Let me know your thoughts on what I've mentioned here... would love to hear back from you!
