Taking control

 There was a time in my life when I would live by what I felt, if I didn't feel like doing something I wouldn't do it this feeling was taking over me and it was limiting me, it was keeping me from growing and developing into who God wanted me to be.

"It is us who need to take this action" 
Until I stopped living by what i felt, controlled my feelings, and started to live by faith it was when my spiritual life started to grow and consequently my life started to take shape. The first step we must do in order to change the way we live is to change our inside to recognize that we need to change first so that the things or situations around us change as well. What ever is inside of us affects our exterior, if it is what we say or do. It is us who need to take this action, God cant take it for us we must show Him and take the first step and He will also take a step, if we take two towards him he will also do the same. So take action if you do not nobody else will do it for you and you will be stuck in the same situation. Take control of your feelings, live by an intelligent faith, take an act of faith before they start controlling you.


In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead."

James 2:17

Things we do

"The little things you do 

complete the big things you want to achieve"
There are big and small things in life that we do whether its giving, helping, or doing. Big things for example giving a present to someone, helping out a person in need, and doing a certain thing for someone else. You may ask, but where do the little things fit into all of this? without the small things big things wouldn't serve at all for example giving a present to someone wouldn't do anything if the giver does not give with all of their heart with a well thought out card or helping a person wouldn't help at all if the helper does not pay attention or isn't interested in helping and doing something for someone if you don't do it with all of your strength The little things you do complete the big things you want to achieve

 "Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much" Luke 16:10

One who executes the small things will also be able to do the big things but if we do not do the little things that are asked of us how are we going to be able to complete the big things?
