But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.
The concept of being far off is not hard for me to associate with.
Can you relate?
The time is now to draw near, trust in Him and He will guide our path
Father God, Your message is simple and clear, Your promises are true and real. You chose us, we did not choose You. Thank You for my new life, thank You for Your mercies which are renewed each day. Lead my heart and mind in Your way of unconditional love not only for You and others, but toward myself Lord, allow me to see myself as you see me. In Jesus’ name I pray…
Life is hard, and change is inevitable. Sometimes it is welcomed, and other times it is overwhelming.
As a child abuse survivor who has struggled with mental illness such as anxiety, PTSD, ADD, OCD, addictions and mountains of self-worth issues, I now find myself resilient, empowered and filled with gratitude most days.
But that doesn't come easy or natural. It takes intentionality. It takes faith. It takes patient endurance. It takes incredible amounts of self-awareness, honesty, humility, and courage to make choices that are the polar opposite of how you feel. It takes vision and determination, hope and healing.
I'm glad you stopped by my blog, I hope you found something of use as I transparently share my journey with others, the highs and the lows, the wisdom and the blunders, in the hopes that my mess becomes a message of hope, encouragement, and strength for even one person. .
The concept of being far off is not hard for me to associate with.
