Have you ever found yourself at a place where your past comes whispering to you, wooing you back?
If not, you are lucky.
If so, you are amongst most of us.
In the times where there are mountains placed before us, its important to remember how far God has brought us, the journey we have traveled, and the scars we have from fighting our way through the battle for a greater life, a more meaningful existence. Sometimes this is extremely difficult, and that is when we need to turn to God's Word for revelation. When we cannot find anything within us (our flesh/emotions/mind) that screams--this trial is going to be worth fighting through!! WE, as believers in Jesus Christ, must turn to His Word and let it renew us, let it draw us out of the self-focus and onto something greater. God Himself.
Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Philippians 4:8
He wants to transform you - mind, will, and emotions. My prayer is that your focus will remain on that truth, that nothing you are facing, is too large for God.
