Give yourself the Chance to Change
There is still hope. You can still see changes in your life. All you need to do is give yourself a chance to try and take small steps one at a time. Change won’t happen if you won’t cooperate. No matter how much God wants you to experience new things, still, He will acknowledge your freedom to make decisions. He will move through the things that are happening around you, but He won’t usually intervene against your free will. He will present certain situations that will give you the opportunity to change into a better person, but it’s up to you if you will abide in Him or not. That’s…

Never Rely on your own Thoughts
Humans have limited understanding. We have so much to learn. This is the reason why we should never rely on our thoughts. Just because something is in our minds doesn’t mean it’s the truth. We need to carefully assess them first and align them according to the ways of God. Please do not depend on your own judgment. You need to learn how to weigh things first, and the Holy Spirit can absolutely help you. Seek His wisdom and before you fully believe in your thoughts, filter them first according to God’s principles; only then will you be guided. This is very important simply because your thoughts will affect your…

Take a Rest so that you will Gain the Strength to Fight again
If you are too tired and exhausted, then all you need to do is take some rest. Pause for a while and allow your body, heart, and mind to recover. Don’t be too occupied by your own goals and then forget about the things that matter most in the end. Reflect on the things that you experienced and try to review if you are still growing or not. Maybe the reason why your growth is stagnant is because you are always in a hurry, and you keep on chasing your desired blessings. Just because you are busy doesn’t mean you are also growing. You need to carefully evaluate your life…
