As a few relationships in my life have been a struggle, I ponder the events of the past and the consequences temporal weakness has brought me. Honestly, I'm more disappointed in myself then anyone.
Its been further difficult to realize and accept that although I'm certain of my feelings and thoughts on a matter, I'm still to fast and pray without ceasing. To be quite honest, I don't want to. I want things to change and I want to have peace about this but as I often prepare to move ahead on my plans, the Good Lord finds a way to whisper, 'trust me'. Trust me. I thought three little words had an impact...whew, not so much as those two. The next moment I usually imagine my life of decisions with and without walking with the Lord and my faith is renewed. 100 out of 100 times He has never failed. I was given the advice to listen to testimony to help me see the work Jesus can do in us when we follow...it was the best advice ever! Nothing beats knowing someone who experienced something you may be going through, other than hearing the scripture they clung to and you know it too! ;)
So, pray without ceasing. Fast if you are being called to fast. Obey because you trust and if He says Be still, know that you're dodging a bullet. Because a renewed mind on God is a powerful perspective.
1 Peter 1:13 NASB
Therefore, prepare your minds for action, keep sober in spirit, fix your hope completely on the grace to be brought to you at the revelation of Jesus Christ.
