Moving Mountains {Guest Post by Annie Wiltse}

Hey Ladies, As my house and life are still a little chaotic....
I am leaving you with a couple of AMAZING guest posters this week.
Enjoy! And I will be back up and running this weekend hopefully.
Much Love,
L

i love the mountains.

i'm not sure what it is about them. maybe the fact that there aren't any in michigan, where i live. maybe because there's some sort of mystery surrounding their existence. maybe because there's a story buried deep in their hearts, some testament to all they've seen hidden beneath the weathered faces they present to us.

i've always believed mountains can be moved, that even with small faith, the power of God will make an insurmountable piece of earth get out of our narrow paths. i've seen Him work that miracle in my own life.

on a friday in late may, after a talk with L about plans to go to influence, Jesus laid a need strongly on my heart.

"i can't do that," i said to Him. "i don't think that would work."

but it wouldn't go away and i debated it all the way home.

that sunday i went to church.

there are times when the Lord speaks, and there are times when the Lord SPEAKS. and this was one of those latter times. everything in that service confirmed the calling He'd laid on my heart the friday before, and i cried the ugly cry in my overwhelm. and despite every argument i'd laid at His feet then, i obeyed.

i've always believed mountains can be moved.

i just never knew that sometimes, the mountain could be me.
