  • 1.  People Pleasing Is a Trap! 

When you truly surrender your life to God, you are going to have to say goodbye to some people, places and things. God will refine you and test you.

When I am exhausted, it is a red flag to me that I’m striving to please someone other than God.

  • 2.  Show You Are Sorry! CHANGE!

Don’t be afraid to change. I’ve had to change my friends, the places I hang out & the things I do.  I’ve changed my clothes, my attitude, my calendar. Seriously, people do not recognize me. I am a stranger here.

Change is hard but good. Every step has been against my human nature, and God has strengthened my every step. He will help you too! A lot of my prayers have been,

“Help! Grace! Mercy! Thank you! I Love You!”

God’s ways are different than ours. Don’t try to understand when He doesn’t make sense. If He tells you to do something, just trust Him. He has a good plan for your life! Old habits die hard. Change is good if it’s for God.

You are a new creation. Butterflies don’t crawl on the ground, Butterflies FLY!

  • 3.  Narrow is The Way! It is difficult to love some people.Pray for them and remember, their minds are darkened.  God will give you grace to love them.
