Turning Point

Q: Was there a turning point in your life when you said, enough is enough, you turned your back on your old life and started new?

I personally can look on a moment in time when I could honestly say that I was tired of living the life that I had and I was ready for the future...a new future. I got lost along the way from that day, but have quickly been set back on the right path by the greatest people in my life that truly love and care about me.

There are trying times in every one's life that can either send them straight to the bottom or to that old life, or it can change them forever for the good.

Lately I have felt very distant from God and I don't really know why. Could it be that I have so much hate for someone or that I just don't want to hear what He has to say to me. All I know is that when God leads us to the edge of a cliff, we will either choose to trust that He will catch us when we fall or teach us how to fly. I wanted to let my friends and family know that God will shift things around for you today, and let things work in your favor. If you believe and trust in the only one that can close doors no man can open and open doors no man can shut...He can do amazing things in your life!I read this quote this morning and it touched me deep down to my soul "When you reach the end of your rope, you will find the hem of His garment" SO VERY TRUE! Life will throw you curve balls, life will bring heartache and sorrow...but know that through the stinging pain all you have to do is reach out and just simply touch the hem of His garment like the very ill woman in the bible. She was desperate for healing and fighting through the crowd she barely touched the hem of Jesus' garment and she was healed. In that crowd of people he stopped, turned around and asked who it was that touched him. It could have been many people just brushing up against him, but He knew the distinct touch of desperation!

I pray that today if you are in a situation of desperation that you will reach out to Him for healing, for peace. You may be holding onto regret about something that happened many years ago...the time has come to let it go. I pray as a friend that I will stand by you every step of the way, I will be here to help you. I will hold you up when you can't stand, I will wipe the tears when you need to cry.

Now is the time to look to the future and stop holding on to what you could not change. God has a plan for you and has known what is in store for you from the day you were born.

Today is a new day....embrace it and if there are changes that need to be made...DO IT!!
