Identify Your Identity.

Last week, I went through a really hard time. I was offended to the point of tears, to the point of reliving past trauma in my mind that shut me down completely for a few days. I reached out to a few close friends to pray for me which I know helped me, but I was moved to why I was completely shut down in the first place.   One, the human spirit is a complex thing. I, by no means can understand myself at times nor do I think in all of human history can anyone say they understand humanity completely. I know there are people who study the minds of others as professionals, and I, by no means equate myself to someone with that much knowledge on the mind, emotions, and human spirit.   When I go through things, after I’ve suffered a bit on my own, I read the Bible. I search the Word of God for answers. I pray. I seek the Holy Spirit’s counsel, and I ask others to pray for me.

"A Life Worth Living" versus "Living a Life Worthy"

As humans, (which we all are) we have a way of doing things- a way, a pattern, a routine, a schedule, traditions, celebrations, cultural similarities and differences that make us human; that make "life worth living", but sometimes we put these things in front of following Christ fully.

blind to the ties

When we think about giving our all to God, we may think He is going to shackle us with a burden too heavy to bear, but what   He does  is actually cut the shackles  off our wrists we didn’t know were there.  He removes what binds us and frees us from the prison we’ve unintentionally  created for ourselves.  His ways are pure and free.  We cannot fathom how He does right  when we are so accustomed to doing wrong and being wronged.  When He cuts away those ties,  we are free to live and love without sin, without our own selfish preferences keeping us from experiencing a full life.  Our own desires always get in the way and drag us away from the good things He has for us.  We must stop wanting things, but begin to want the One who made all things.  May our desire be Him alone,  because  He has  our best ...
