From Stubborness to Faith

As I evolve in my faith, I am always amazed at what I learn…I certainly am learning and growing daily in my walk with God…That He would even consider me is truly an awesome thought…I find each and every day that there is always room for growth…It is an ever-evolving quest to become a vessel of light and one that God could and would use…I personally fall so short even when I am unaware of my short-comings…It is only by His grace that I am and live from day to day…How awesome is His grace and loving-kindness…In my quest to grow in my faith and to be closer to God, I find that He reveals to me more and more of what would hamper my serving Him in the most honorable way…It is in the humility that He teaches me and brings me to an awareness that as long as I breathe, I will be dependent upon Him and that it is essential that I acknowledge Him, repent of my sins, and seek His face -- for He alone is worthy…

May it be that some of my thoughts here will touch your soul…In my journey, I find that I must humble myself, rely upon only God, and seek His face…It is my prayer that some of my thoughts in my own personal growth process will be meaningful to you in some way…Juanita Pittman-Brown

Thoughts to Ponder

If serving God is hampered by my own thoughts of my self-worth, what would I choose to do and think

How does pride affect my witnessing

Who am I serving -- God or me

What is perceived may be at odds with what I think

If serving is my goal, how does humility play a part

Should I expect to be healed over-night when the wounds of life are deep

If my heart is right, perhaps the eyes of perception will be changed

Should I expect healing of the wounds of my spirit to be pain-free

Would I dare to become a better me; and if so, how open would I be to the journey placed before me

Would humility be a door-way to wholeness

Would I dream of becoming what God wants me to be and do the work required to change…©
