Do you have trouble changing? Many people resist change because they feel that the sum total of their life's circumstances is insurmountable. It just takes too much energy for too long of a time to turn their ship around. So they give up before they start. Does that describe you?
God understands this problem and that's exactly why he gave us his Spirit to power our changes. He understands that left to ourselves we are powerless. But with his Spirit we can do the impossible. That's why Paul prayed for us...
I pray that you will begin to understand how incredibly great his power is to help those who believe him. It is the same mighty power that raised Christ from the dead. Ephesians 1:19,20
What are those areas of your life where you feel like a complete failure? Kerry Shook tells us to do three things.
- Admit your weakness.
- Release your guilt.
- Receive God's strength to change.
Write out what's keeping you from each one of these steps and then meet with someone to help you start the process.
