Spiritual Amneisa
Is what Bro Mike preached on this morning.
He "stirred up our pure minds by way of remembrance."
Never in all my life have I EVER had one single sermon that spoke straight to my heart in so many different ways.
Only God Himself knew what was going on with me. Not even my closest friends knew, because I chose to keep my battles within this time. Only, in time, it started showing.
Funny, how the people closest to you know something is going on when you won't even admit it yourself. Bad attitude, reserved, etc... alot of things that aren't normally me had become something that was common to me. Or so I thought.
I'm not stupid. I know when I need help. The thing was God couldn't help me until I was ready to let go. I've heard it described as praying to God to take something away from you while holding on to it with everything in you. Which is exactly what I was doing.
I needed ~ restoration, joy, peace, contentment, and many other things. All I had to do was let go and ask. How hard is that?
I've been holding on to alot of things that were starting to change my life, and not for the better. It starts with one song, one conversation, one step in the wrong direction. Give the devil an inch and he'll take a foot.
Maybe next time it won't take me hitting rock bottom to reach out for help.
God is still a prayer answering God :)
Even when I am a little stubborn...
