Start Where You Are

The past is in the past. You can’t change what happened. This may be a painful truth to accept but if you won’t let go of the things that you experienced, then you will find yourself living in misery. This is why the first step for you to move forward is to accept things as they are. Learn the lessons, and then allow God to walk with you along the journey.

Fix your eyes on Him, and He will teach you how to start with the things that you have. He will give you the wisdom that you need for you to overcome the situation that you are in. Just focus on the blessings that He gave instead of the wrong things that happened.

Keep the lessons with you and let go of the bitterness. This may not be easy, but you won’t be able to fully receive the fulness of His blessings if you are still holding on to what happened. Just do what you can do in the present. Focus on the little steps you can take, and you will find healing sooner or later.

God always gives us our daily bread. This means that the blessings we receive every single day are enough for our daily needs. So, trust that God will sustain you. Maybe you find it hard to believe that God will fully transform your life, but keep taking the small steps in front of you. Do not worry about the rest; remember that the grace that you receive for today will always be enough.

Learn to appreciate the simple journey you have with God. Sometimes, God doesn’t require us to do extravagant things. Instead, He just wants us to start where we are. We just need to be patient, especially when we can’t see any changes. We just need to depend on Him, especially when we can’t see what’s ahead. When we choose to take one small step at a time, it means that we are trusting that God will be there to hold our hands.
