There were many years that I hated looking in the mirror at myself for fear and disgust of what I would see looking back. Though I was not still bound and caught up in the actions of my past, my past still had me caught up. Many regrets, guilt and shame riddled my emotions and kept me bound within myself. It took years of God pulling back the layers of my life and making me whole. Change didn't happen over night. It never does. I had to embrace my process and allow God to show me ME, not just my mistakes but purpose. I needed to see me through Him! I am so thankful that now after years of learning how to see and love me through my brokenness I can say that everything that I went through, the good, the bad, and the ugly ALL worked out for HIS Glory! I am not perfect nor am I finished being processed, but I am so much better than I was. I can now look back at my pass and smile as I embrace my present looking forward to my future knowing that God was in it all! He never left me and He never will! It was all necessary for the assignment He sent me here to do. looking back now, ready to cross over to a new year in my life, all I can think about is how GRATEFUL I am to have a Father that loved me so much He didn't leave me like I was. Instead He walked me through and taught me what true love is every step of the way. Stay encouraged! God is no respecter of persons. The same Father that is walking with me is there to walk with you too! Just embrace the process of what we call life and know that it is ALL working for the good of US who LOVE the Lord! Stay focused and KeepPUSHn! The Best is yet to come! P.U.S.H.-Position UrSelf Higher.
