Change

In the beginning it all started out like fun, I mean really seemed like there was no harm done. Until one day I found that I couldn't stop what I was feeling, some where deep down inside me it kept growing and growing causing other things to manifest. You may ask what is it? It is pain, pain from loving folks who don't love you. Pain from doing the best you can to live a righteous life and your so called friends turn there back on you. Even some family couldn't except the change, hmm want to talk about painful, OUCH! that really did hurt. But then as I sought a way to deal with the feeling of rejection, I came to realize NO CROSS NO CROWN! It wasn't until I really understood that I no longer live but Christ in me and because of that my life it not my own. Change is deeper then the metamorphosis of a Caterpillar. It is deeper then putting on clean clothes, and showering. Change is deeper then move from one end of town to another. Change is within, and change hurts. For you have to let go of old thoughts, old behaviors, old friends, even so old family and that itself can be painful. Nevertheless scripture says Be strong and of good courage, did you know it takes courage to change? I know I can go on with this but, to change into your GOD given purpose will sometime be painful, but in the end you will be grateful. LORD I am grateful for you did it, you already knew I cease from old behavior, putting on the NEW MAN. I can say this before you can put on the new you got to be rid of the old, and in that a transformation can take place to a deeper sense, a deeper need to be just like JESUS. ARE YOU WILLING TO SUFFER JUST FOR A LITTLE WHILE? ARE YOU WILLING TO STEP OUT IN COURAGE? I love what change is bringing to me, blessings to you all.
