Backsliding to refocus

Backsliding to refocus

These past few weeks even months has been very hectic for me but I have been acting as if they are under control. I learned one should not speak too prematurely on things that are not certain, There is power of life and death in the tongue and lastly, Communication is very important.

 

I’ve battled with loosing my car home and dang near my job or my promotion at least. I have lost focus. Once I was so strong willed and tenacious that no one could stop me from what i was doing. Why did I let one small thing get me so far away. I used to be excited spreading news about my business and especially about God but now I feel so helpless and unworthy that I don’t feel that i can get back to where i was. But i know I can, Good wanted me to take this path for a reason and knew i would end up here. My free will is was got me to where I am now but he knew the decisions I was going to make prior to me making them. I feel like I am living in Hypocrisy. I don’t like it!On one hand I have radical faith that everything is going to be alright and it is working out for his good. One the other hand I am not trusting God so that he can move miraculously. I am trying to make sense of something only God can do; It’s impossible. I want to get back to where I was. II was to let go of all the things that aren’t serving me and yet I still indulge in thing that doesn’t feed my soul. It’s hypocritical, I know. I was so confident that I knew where you were taking me but now I feel as if i am back to numero uno. Necisito se vir. Ayuddorte mi, por favor.

 

Chileeeee, even when you think things are solidified don’t share the news, Allow it to speak for itself. I remember coming across a verse in Proverbs speaking on said topics but I didn’t understand it until now. When i tell you the book of wisdom never lies. - Proverbs 12:14The work of a man’s hands will speak for him.” - Theres also another one talking about letting others compliment or praise the work for you rather than doing it yourself. - Proverbs 27:2Let another man praise you, and not your own mouth; A stranger, and not your own lips.” I believe this will keep everyone humble and it also reminds us that actions speak louder than words. What’s done in the dark eventually comes to the light. Always be mindful of your actions and the work you are putting in because it will always be shown. Have discipline because regardless of the circumstance or how you are feeling you will continue making strides forward because the destination will always be worth it . Never let outside distraction or people stop you from achieving your goals. Remember Obedience is better than sacrifice. When you are obedient to God’s will on your life you are able to avoid a lot of sacrifices in the future. Never think that God doesn’t have our best interest at heart. He takes care of his children and provides for them. Stop trying to Take things into your own hands and trust the process. God will spoil you if you let him. He doesn’t want you going without but he also isn’t going to force you to do anything you don’t want to. To reap the benefits of everlasting eternity is accepting Jesus and submitting your entire life to him. Stop straddling the fence. Have the self control to not give into temporary satisfaction so that your future can be a lot more prosperous than you can ever imagine. Not vocalizing information until it is concrete can also be a form of protection from things that are not seen. Everyone doesn’t have your best interest at heart, the enemy can come in many different forms and packages, disguising himself as a loved one or relative be mindful and use discernment. Some people like to see you doing well but not better than them. Unfortunately not everyone will be happy for you, so instead of welcoming negative attacks from the enemy it would be who of you to just keep certain things between you and God until he allows it to com into fruition.

Back sliding can cause a numerous amount of things. From the less time intentionally spent in God’s presence to the lack of accountability partners. Following God is not for the faint of heart being that you have to go against societal normalities. One may find themselves Isolated often and doing things a lone. Being a lone is not always a bad thing but it is needed for growth and it builds strength of self control to be able to not give into negative pressure and temptations. Just like the Prodigal Son, Jesus will always welcome us back with open arms. Get back on track and Refocus
