As believers in Jesus Christ, we are called to reflect the character of GOD in the earth.
How can you expect me to let go of all the cruel things he did to me?
Like a candy jar, you have filled me with sweet things. Each piece of candy is like a testimony of the joy you bring.
It was the sweetest thing for me to hear, that you were willing to sacrifice what you held so dear.
For 15 years, I worked at a correctional facility for men, in Atlanta, GA.
Be silent devil! How dare you try to intimidate me. You thought that when the LORD called my momma home you would break me.
A few years ago, my finances were under extreme attack. No matter how frugal I lived, it was as if I had holes in my pockets! So much so that I couldn’t afford to buy food, clothes, or the basic essentials for everyday living. Thank GOD for the Food Pantry at my church, and other community resources that helped me during that season of my life.
As I reflect on that season, I think about the “one thing” that I esteemed to mean so much, that GOD allowed to be taken away from me because I couldn’t afford to buy it: Clothes. I love fashion and costume jewelry, and I know that there’s nothing wrong with that. The issue was attaching my identity to it. GOD allowed me to walk through that season to reveal the vanity in my heart, and to teach me that my identity was not in “what” I have but in “who” I am!
