Our constant Repositioner

Verses about how God can change/reposition our perspective, even though our circumstances might remain the same…

‘Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light.’ (Micah 7:8)

‘The former things will not be remembered, nor will they come to mind. But be glad and rejoice forever in what I will create.’ (Isaiah 65:17-18)

‘Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.’ (Matthew 11:28)

Whatever our situation, there is always another perspective – God’s. He will take us to impossible places and say, ‘Trust me that all things do work together for good.’ (Romans 8:28). He can reposition our hearts.

Can anything good come out of litigation?

NO and YES.

Exactly 8 years ago my memoir, ‘On Unclipped Wings’ was accepted by a major Christian publisher, but then threatened with litigation. And 4 years ago today, I self-published it. That threat was meant to silence me and it almost did.

But, all things do work together for good to them that love God (Romans 8:28). I learned that each of us has a voice, unique to us, and that God wants each of us to speak. I learned that no one can thwart God’s will in my life, or anyone’s life, for that matter. I learned that I was an expert at accepting failure, but now God wanted me to learn how to succeed.

My memoir is still barred from traditional publishing, but God is my constant comfort. For, even though he chose not to protect me from the threat of litigation, he is and always will be good.
