God gave us the grace of free will. He will not impose Himself onto us for the Holy Spirit is a gentleman. In knowing this, I ask, are you willing to submit control to Him. Believe me, I am not perfect, and I am still struggling with this, but I am ready for change, for growth. Walking through life with a blind fold on is a scary thing, but faith will see me through. I am sure there may be some of you who may not agree with what I write on this blog, but that's ok. Because at the end of day, we all seek the same thing, growth and change. Everyone want's change, needs change. Change is the filter of our existence. Without it, life would not evolve. By faith, our level of change will grow and through our growth, we will inhabit change.

Finding my hope
The overwhelming feeling of hopelessness is an attack in itself. The lack of drive in seeking hope in more than just commodities sometimes seems like an unreachable goal. The privilege of grace and mercy enrich this new light, providing an everlasting sense of possibility. The possibility that things can change; the possibility that my husband/wife will change; the possibility that things will happen in my favor. As I mentioned in my previous post, the need for change is inevitable through the realm of growth. The goal is to continue to grow, not to sit in contentment with what you have accomplished for the day, but to continuously seek growth through change. One thing I've learned over the years, if you keep making the same mistake, you will continue to get the same results. So in other words, if you keep making a left turn,you will continue to turn into a dead end. If you noticed that change is non-existent in your life, then why not take another path. What do you have to lose? The Lord said, seek ye first the kingdom of God, and all His righteous. And all these things will be added unto you ( Matt. 6:33). If things are not going the way you planned for them to go, sit back and regroup. Ask yourself, what is it that God wants for you. Sometimes, we are so caught up in our needs, wants and desires, that we forget that we are not in control. Control...what a concept. Construction On Not Taking Roles Over the Lord. What does this mean? It means, through the lens of grace and mercy, we sometimes need to undergo construction in understanding our roles through the eyes of the Lord. " For I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord. Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future". (Jer. 29:11). In all of this, with change, growth, releasing control, it takes strong faith. Falling in Adoration into Thy Hands.
The atack is real...
Growth is factually inevitable in the world of trials and tribulations. Overcoming the exhausting battle of mental control has its limitations. The renewing of your mind serves a prerequisite in setting a strong foundation for growth. I have struggled in this area for as long as i could remember. The motivational aspect of all of this is to continue striving for change, for growth. As i find myself falling into a spiral of cluttered thoughts and confusion, i gained wisdom in understanding that it was ok to feel this way. These feelings are completely normal to feel, they are human emtions. The real struggle comes when u give up, when you say Im done. NEVER SAY YOUR DONE, because then the enemy has won. You are a child of the Most high. Remember, the battle is not yours, the battle is the Lord's. It's not over yet....believe that. This is all to strengthen your faith.

My Epiphany
How do you stand strong when everything around you seems to be falling short. You pray, you seek His face, you do all the things that you believe are what you need and should be doing, and yet, nothing seems to change your surrounding or your situation. How do you develop a level of faith in the midst of stagnation. The Word of God says, we need faith the size of a mustard seed...have you ever seen a mustard seed. Well, here it is....
This is how big our faith level has to be, in order for us to have the power to look at a mountain and tell the mountain to move.
How big is your seed?
