You know something has to change. You must walk the path yourself, but you are not alone. He is here. Let Him help. Allow Him in.
At first it will feel like a dark, heavy trap.
All the ownership on your shoulders, no more blaming or complaining.
As you wrestle through those first few miles of this new journey, you have to come to terms with what has been as a new way is revealed.
You realize that the freedom and peace you desire, requires you to go right through the darkest and scariest parts.
As you arrive in these spaces, stand in them fully and look around, you realize they are not what you imagined them to be, or maybe just as you imagined but you are OK.
You see things for what they really are, without all the drama.
As you continue to walk this path, things lighten up. You start to see yourself and the world around you in a brand new way.
The responsibility and agency no longer feel like a weight or a cage, but like pure freedom. How in the world did you live in that trap for so long?
Blaming and complaining are no longer an option because you know now they are a trap, stripping you of your power to choose.
You resolve to allow this new truth and this freedom to change your thoughts, words and actions.
All those things that got to you no longer spin you up or let you down.
You care deeply but the residual feelings tied to how things play out are no longer stuck inside you, they just dissipate. You are lighter. Liberated
Even in the darkest and toughest moments, peace and joy and love are present.
You are new and you see the world with new eyes.
This is the journey of transformation.
You made the brave choice to start the journey. God did the big work of transforming your heart.
Surrendering to love, staying connected to God and allowing Him to lead is the path to unending joy. We know ourselves best and live our best life through Him.
