Jul. 7, 2006 - Change
I have truly been going through a soul struggle. I have struggled with many issues and most of them I am eliminating from my life. I am reading a book by Elizabeth George called Beautiful in God's Eyes and the scripture references in the book are causing a change in me. I am very good at hiding behind a strong will and I am good at manipulating. These are not traits I am proud of and they have caused alot of selfishness and pride. I am not angry or sad by this realization of myself. I am excited and refreshed because I truly feel free to be myself. I no longer want to hide and worry about others expectations. My priorities are in order and I am ready to be held accountable for my actions. I am praying for an accountability partner. It was so incredible to bring myself before the Lord and truly confess my sin in depth. I felt a connection with Him that I have been missing. I feel as if He is preparing to use me and allow me to serve Him. I know serving Him is a daily thing but I feel there is something special I am supposed to do. I am so excited. If this sounds strange I am sorry but this is me. I pray that you open yourself up for what the Lord is preparing for you. Do not be afraid of change and get to know Him through His Word. This is an exciting place to be!

I agree and I will be praying for you! It is really neat to see what God can do with brokenness. 'The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit and a contrite heart!'
