Can I just start off saying God has just been really good to me, Even on my worst and horrible day, God is awesome. Every now and then we forget to just say thank you, God, for waking me up. Thank you, God for covering me in school, work even at the mall. I just had to bring it to your remembrance that God is still God even when everything in life seems to be falling apart. We should say thank you God even when everything in life is going great. Ok now, let get into this short blog. I like to get straight to the point! My grandmother recently passed away in the month of August, and my grandmother lived in Canada. My father used to take us to Canada to spend time at my grandmother house. During that time, my grandmother explains to us that my father had another son before he met my mother. My father did already confess that to my other sibling when my mother found out from her snooping around. However, my grandmother didn’t know that. I wouldn’t say my grandmother was trying to start drama, but listen, God bless her soul. However, I began to ask my grandmother what was his name and she gave it to me. The truth was my long lost brother use to go to Canada with my dad and spend time at my grandmother house. My grandmother was still hurt about my father turning his back on his son. My brother had my father original last name, so I begin to search him up on the internet as soon as I got back home from Canada. The search for my brother began. We didn’t have Facebook at that time, I was searching him up on myspace. I began to search him up, I think I found someone that looks like my dad and it’s 1:00 am in the morning it’s really late so I just added someone that may be my long lost brother and I told myself I will send him a message in the morning. I remember this dream so vividly I had a dream that my long lost brother met or father and he just went crazy on or father. He just started to beat him up. This dream felt so real. As soon as I got up, I went on myspace and deleted my friend request and for some reason, my long lost brother never crossed my mind, and this was back in 2006 and now it’s 2017. I believe at that time it wasn’t Gods timing for us to connect with or brother. And if I would of move out of Gods timing I wouldn’t of know what to expect. It’s been 11 years, my dad is not perfect but I believe God is truly dealing with him. I am truly starting to see the works of God manifesting over his life.
For some reason, God brought my brother to my attention in 2017 and this time I had peace about it. And finding him was so easy I began to search him up on Facebook and he was basically the first picture I saw, it was that easy. When its Gods timing everything will fall into place you wouldn’t even have to fight for it for the reason that its meant for you. For some reason, both of my aunts were already mutual friends on Facebook with him (that’s another blog). So, I added my brother and he added me back me less than 15min. One of the questions I ask him was what was the name of your father (that was the winning question) and soon as he types out my father name I told him I was his sister and he has four other sisters. To be honest I was really, nervous. That night we got to face time each other (team iPhone) and it was amazing. What made it creepy was that he looks a lot like my father. What really brought peace and joy into my heart was when I ask him a question and that question was, Are you mad at our father? And his response was no, I have a son of my own now and that was the past. Thank you, Jesus!
I am very excited that I got the opportunity share this with you this life changing story. We are all waiting and expecting something from God. Whether it’s a spouse, finances, even a new job. God timing is so perfect. When it’s time to for Him to present you with that very thing that you are expecting it will just come unexpectedly, naturally and in, His timing. You wouldn’t even have to force it.
Stay encouraged!
Part 2 will be posted soon!!!!

Scripture on God Timing
Psalm 27:14
Wait for the LORD; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the LORD!
Isaiah 40:31
But they who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.
Proverbs 3:5-6
Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.
