Change is Good

Two weeks ago, Pastor Walter Madera preached about change. All around me I have seen confirmation that God wants to bring me into a new place, a better place. For Him to do that, He has made very clear that the old things in my life has got to go. God is forming me and is changing me alot but I have been resisting most of the changes. But I know that God is not trying to hurt me, He is cleaning house. I know that this is the year God is giving me victory in every area of my life and he has. I had an amazing time through Re-Encounter, God revealed a lot of things I was trying to hide. But when I was confronted with things and let them go, I experienced a deep healing, something I have been seeking for years. It came when I let go of the past. Of the hurt, the anger, the sin, the love of the times in my life that I loved when I was not walking with the Lord, and so much more. When I left it at the Cross, God met me. But those were the things that I wanted kicked out of my life so bad. The responsibility, discipline, and leadership that God wants to bring into my life has been much harder to receive because I like the areas of my life where I am lazy. But I am not willing to love my life so much that I lose my soul. That I lose everything that God has for me. When I remember everything that God has done for me, I am willing to give those things up. This is my time.
