Voices

It is hard not to listen to that voice inside your head sometimes. I know it's not God speaking to me but for some reason I listen anyway. After a while it becomes so believable that you think it's the truth. Little by little the voice will seep through and pull you down until you have to uncover a big mess to come back up. We need to remember that just because this voice is speaking to us doesn't mean that God is not. God is still right there speaking to us every day and we need to be listening for His voice daily. It's hard to find God's voice when all you have been listening to for so long are lies. Our God is the God of truth and He wants to share that truth with us every day if we will take the time to listen. We can't let ourselves get caught up in the lies because it will only blind us from the truth, the truth that will bring us freedom, peace, comfort, direction, and many other great things. So start listening for God and ignoring the lies you have been hearing for so long and you will start to notice a great change in your life. Weights will be lifted and spirits will be higher if you just stop and listen for God. He is right there waiting for you.

Change

I sometimes feel like i'm slowly losing you, like you are being taken away from me. I know in my mind that it's not true but my heart doesn't always know that. I wish my mind and my heart could be on the same page sometimes. Things are going to change soon and it hurts my heart to think about it. I have yet to find full peace with it all. I wish I could talk to you about it because I still don't fully understand things. This summer is definitely a time of transition, a transition from the old to the new. I feel like there is a part of me that is going from this little girl to this now more grown up girl. I don't know if i'm quite ready to grow up but I know that it is time in many areas of my life. I have relyed on others for too long and it's time for me to start flying on my own. It will be hard at first but adjustment will come, and with that adjustment will come blessings. I know that God has a plan for me but I wish I knew what that plan was because right now I feel like things are slipping away from me. I know that my life is in need of a change in many ways but being able to adjust to the change is never an easy thing. It takes time and a lot of prayer to be at peace with the change and to see the blessings that can come from it. God brings change into our lives for a reason and many times it's to teach us something and to grow us in our faith and trust in Him. He wants us to lean on Him when we are going through a difficult change in our lives. We need to cling on to the hope that God works for the good of those who love him. We may not see the good work that God is doing when we are right in the middle of things but we need to remind ourselves of his promises every day. I don't know where this change is going to take me but i'm going to do my best to embrace it with a positive attitude. I know that I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me and I plan on reminding myself that every day. It may not be easy and many feelings my be felt through all of this but with Chist by my side, great blessing are to come. God has many blessing in store for all and He want to give them to you if you will surrender all and trust in Him.

Peace and Blessings,
