Proverbs 13:20 NIV

Proverbs 13:20 NIV
He who walks with wise grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm.

Since you can not please everyone, you are better off trying to please God. You make choices, and pretty soon those choices begin to shape your life. That's why you must make smart choices......or face the consequences of making dumb ones.

It is hard to walk away from old friends, old habits for the fear of being alone. Once you have made up your mind that you would rather "WALK WITH GOD", instead of walking in the flesh. Some people will not get you. They will put you down, because they knew you when. Have no fear, for God has forgiven us our sins, and remembers them no more. You may change everything about the way you live and they will not understand or think you are using God or church as a crutch. Do not be discouraged my friends. Once we make a choice to put "GOD FIRST" in everything in our lives things will take form. We need to be spiritually full and God will walk along side of you during the storm.

I know my old friends and people in my past, say "she has not changed" and some will say "she has not changed". There are those who still can push my buttons and steal my joy. But like a friend said " don't let them steal your joy, they didn't give it to you". How true is that? I am still a work in progress and God is opening my eyes to so many things. Right now in this season of my life, God is taking me back to places I never wanted to go back, but in the process I am being healed from old wounds,things and people I never thought I would have to see or deal with again. Healing me in areas of my life that I did not even know I needed healing from. He is using me and my "life experiences" to minister to others, especially the ones in my past.

It is so wonderful an awesome to hear and see so many people have turned their lives over to God. Praise you Jesus for that. I know life is hard at times especially when you are wanting to change and others want to stay right where they are and have been for years. I encourage you all to cling to God's promises and he will bless you. When you are low and down and out call out to him, talk to him, tell him the desires of your heart.

I pray for each and everyone of you. I will be in much prayer for all of my friends and their needs. There is so much prayer that needs to happen. Just pray, pray, like the saying goes.......PUSH........pray until something happens.

Be blessed me friends.....
