Transformation

For I will take you from among the nations, gather you out of all countries, and bring you into your own land. Then I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean; I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols. I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them. (Ezekiel 36:24-27 NKJV)

God can restore us physically and spiritually. No matter how ugly or sin-filled your life is right now, God offers each of us a fresh start...a clean slate and new life. He will wash away our sins and give us a new heart for him...if we accept his promises and salvation and allow him to do so. Completely surrender to him.

Quit trying to plug the holes in your life as you know it and let God give you a completely new one.

Stuck Between a Rock and a Hard Place

You know it's a weird place to be in life...between a rock and a hard place. It's that moment that life as you knew it changes forever for different reasons. I don't know that this is what I would call a season of life. It's just a pivotal point in life.

It's when you realize that maybe what you believed, who you trusted and relied on, or even what/who you thought you were wasn't exactly what it seemed to be. 

That moment that you realize you're alone. 

Can't say that this spot is pleasant but one thing is for sure...I can't stay here.

God is Faithful

"If we are unfaithful, he remains faithful, for he cannot deny who he is."  2 Timothy 2:13 NLT

Jesus is faithful. He will stay by our side even when we have endured so much that we seem to have no faith left.  We may be faithless at times, but Jesus is faithful to his promise to be with us "to the end of age" (Matthew 28:20).  Refusing Christ's help will break our communication with God, but he will never turn his back on us even though we may turn our back on him.
