Sheetrock
Hi everyone! I was driving along on the highway yesterday when i saw a flatbed carrying what seemed like tons of sheet rock. It brought me back to my days of building a basement apartment with my dad. I loved those days. But I developed a love for sheet rock even more. Yes, Ana, loves, construction. I think it's the coolest. I love to be able to put the frames up that will divide rooms. Then insulating them. Putting up the drywall, and plastering where the seams were, and where the screws were put in. Then sanding the plaster down after it's dried, and even though you need a mask cause it can get kind of messy with the dust, it's still fun. Then the perfect painting. Yea, I'm ranting to y'all about what I love, that makes no sense to many of you cause you can care LESS about drywall!!! LOL!!!
But I bet you all know more about drywall than you think. I know I knew more about it than I thought. And I was a Drywall Specialist in my life. Anytime I felt like someone hurt my feelings just enough, or my heart was broken, or if I felt like something wasn't right. Or just because I felt less than to someone, I could build a wall very easily. But you know, there are people in your life that know when you are avoiding someone and will call you out. That's where the rest of that drywall expertise came in handy. I knew how to plaster the holes in my feelings, so people couldn't tell what was on my side of the wall. The insecurities, the hurts, the frustrations. I had it pretty seamless. But that wasn't enough, I had to wrap up everything in something that would NEVER show anyone that I had more walls than a prison compound. I needed to keep myself and my heart safe. That's where the paint came in. I would make sure no one could see the insulation, the seams, the plaster or anything else. A perfect mess in disguise!!!! Hidden from the world!!!!! "Protected"!!!!! BUT, I was so "protected"
God couldn't really get in either.
But one day, there will be leaks discovered, there will be renovations needed, and who can say THOSE WALLS MUST COME DOWN!!!!!! This, if anyone has ever done real demo work in a house, is very therapeutic and FUN! But that's how it is in the natural. Sometimes, some walls must come down. There is a strategy though. You can't let all walls down at the same time, at least not with just anyone. In order for this to be successful and long lasting, you will have to attack one wall at a time! But when we are talking about the spirit of God falling on you, those walls DO have the possibility of All falling AT ONCE. But that's the power of God, working within your desires! If you want all your walls gone, and you make that connection with the Spirit of God, WHEW!!!! It's amazing what can happen! He can have them ALL come crashing down! But you will have to be ready to be vulnerable. And that's not to be a bad thing. If you allow God to help your walls come crashing down, best believe that He will be there for you when you start feeling vulnerable. And as long as you stick to Him along the way, You Will Be Just Fine!
How many walls do you still have up? I know I still have a couple for sure, but I'm hammering away at those walls. I want them to come down. I want to solely depend on God. It's hard, yes, but no one said this journey would be easy right?
I Love You All! Have a Blessed Day!
