Today’s revelation - In my walk I faced a lot of adversity and temptation and I fell, multiple times and kinda gave up, somewhat hardened the posture of my heart. The hardening of the heart is a terrible thing to do and very dangerous for a Christian.
But by the grace of God and in his glorious mercy he met me where I was and said I should be brave and come to him as I am in that very moment. Angry, fearful, feeling unworthy, shameful, sad, hard in heart and overall just not open to him.
“God will meet you where you are in order to take you where he wants you to go”- Tony Evans
In that space he cared for me, reminded me that I am forgiven for all sin, set me straight, guided me and blessed me. All to say nothing is greater than he is. Today’s reading was In John 15 12-27 and in this is so much but the focus of this is what u will go through.
You will go through pain, adversity, and temptation, but it is because “I chose you” Jesus said. So when you go through these things praise the Lord for it shows his clear favour in your life.
As you walk and concisely build the right habits and renew your mind you will see areas that need greater attention. PLEASE do not shy away or be afraid or disheartened like I was. It is uncovering places that the Holy Spirit is giving you power to put to death, so you may move forward for he has chosen you
