People cannot change if they do not acknowledge that Satan is here to subjugate and feed you lies to make you feel small. The promise of Jesus Christ was, and always is, to see His children prosper. Sin brings us further away from the glory of God, our Father, not if, but when, you feel alone and separated from the Father's love. Pray and ask for guidance. He will save you and make you feel unstoppable. Proceed in silence; you have friends and family. Friends and family seem well, but remember not to tell everyone your plans. When you tell everyone your plans, they have a way of sabotaging them. It may not even be conscious, but everyone is out for themselves. They don’t want to see you be better than them. It sucks, but it's true. Stay in prayer and ask for guidance.

A history not remembered is a path to be repeated. I don't want a repeat, I want change. My story is so familiar. Boy meets girl, has a couple kids, gets married. Has a lot on his plate now! Wants a bright future, anything would be better than where he came from. He will not compare apples to oranges. He just knows what he wants. To dream big, keep your mouth shut to not let others affect the outcome. When you tell people your plans they have a way to sabotage your efforts. You also need to remember “closed mouths don't get fed.” Like a baby bird does not get fed if its mouth is closed. So continue in silence, but stay vigilant. The vigilant part is the "mouth open” to take opportunities when they come up. You learn the first time so you do not repeat the same mistakes. You grow from obstacles along the way. Remember your past so you can build a better future.  YAHH it was a BBQ, but that is all it was. It doesn’t even feel worthy of writing about it. But, by going deeper, it was nice to just chill, eat food, and see people in their normal state. I need to get out of my head to not just focus on being bored. Trying to see the greener pastures. Not so doom and glum. If you get stuck in that mindset, you can be there your whole life. I want to challenge that. When I find myself in this place, I need to step out of that lens and see what is different. Think of opportunities, not obstacles. Also, going to your mom’s house or a friend's birthday party is not about what the event is; it is about how that event might make the other person feel. So go and be the light and let the light shine. Be a good contagion. Life starts as you learn to step forward. You start to go to the monotonous stuff so that you can see what life could be. Go to the dumb BBQ.   I hate the man I used to be. He was harsh, and I was being self centered. The person I look back and see had a big ego. NOW I try to see His face. It is because I am human that I sometimes fall short. So now my ego is being replaced with Grace.
I need to let go, and let God. I strive to take a moment before reacting, and let Him guide me. Take a journey with me, don't allow other people to stress you out. Don't let yourself care what other people think. Do not compare, let God guide you. If people are thinking negatively about you, you can't control them. People are going to do this either way so you can’t change what they think. Do not react or change your emotional state. Just be your best self, let His light shine. |
