Hey Resonate! Sister Eliza here:) Really happy to see that our blog is alive and kicking! Do visit often and post your thoughts/TAWG whenever you can:) Anyways just thought I'd share something with you guys, it's a devotion I was reading today on Joyce Meyer and it really blessed my heart.

You have turned my mourning into dancing for me; You have put off my sackcloth and girded me with gladness.
— Psalm 30:11
On a Friday morning in February 1976, I was frustrated and desperate. I was trying to do everything the church said I should do and everything I thought God required of me, but nothing seemed to be working and I was quite disheartened. I knew I needed change in my life, but I wasn’t sure exactly what change I needed. I knew I was searching, but I wasn’t sure what I was searching for.
That morning, I cried out to God and told Him I couldn’t go on any longer. I remember saying, “God, something is missing. I don’t know what it is, but something is missing.”
To my surprise, He spoke to me in what sounded loud enough to be His audible voice, calling my name and talking to me about patience. From that moment on, I knew He was going to do something about my situation. Later that day, in my car, Jesus filled me with the presence of the Holy Spirit in a way I had never before experienced. The best way to describe the feeling is to say I felt someone had poured liquid love into me. I immediately noticed newfound peace, joy, and love resting inside me and flowing out of me, and everyone around me noticed positive changes in my behavior as I began to love others as I never had before.
I got up that morning feeling as though everything had come to a discouraging end. I went to bed that night knowing I was at a place of new beginnings. God often works this way; He speaks and moves suddenly in our lives. Don’t grow weary of waiting on God because today may be your day for a “suddenly.”
if you've forgotten what you read above, don't miss out the last sentence:) I may not know exactly how you are right now in your walk with God, but nevertheless, DON'T GIVE UP! For those of you who may feel like you've not been hearing from God in the longest time, DON'T GIVE UP! For those of you who are walking strong with Him, DON'T BE COMPLACENT, continue to seek Him and walk intimately with Him:) Because who knows, today may be your day for a "suddenly".
"You will seek me and find me, when you seek me with all of your heart." Jeremiah 29:13
