Real Talk

Good morning,

Sooooooo yesterday in Life Studies we discussed Exodus. There were so many things that were running through my mind during this lesson. One thing that was pointed out is that when GOD wants you to move he will make it difficult for you to stay. For me that was a “Ding, Ding” moment. I've said this very thing many times myself. If the plan is for us to have the best life but we will not move out of a situation there will be times that you must be pushed. I know that I have been a “pusher” for some people. I am not always able to “woo, woo, woo” people when what they need is a “Thelma and Louise” moment. We have all had that feeling that it may be time to move on but for some reason we don’t move. All of the signs are there. GOD has shown us that it’s time to go but we won’t budge. Is it because we are comfortable in an uncomfortable situation? Maybe it’s the fear of not knowing what will happen if we leave. Whatever it is we stay. Well now that we have made the decision to continue to be disobedient and stupid I can only assume that GOD is like, “Real Talk, you are going to make me put the smack down”….O_O. So the uncomfortable conditions that we continue to live in become more unbearable. We are miserable all because we won’t move. It’s not the people. It’s not the circumstances. It’s us! We say we trust HIM but take no action. We say that we have Faith but are scared. We say that we have been blessed but we never remember those blessings in times of trials. Real talk we want to be blessed and have a great life but we will not do what we have been asked to do. GOD literally has to destroy the things around us to get us to move. It’s crazy. We are not the first…… Pharaoh didn’t move until GOD took all of the first born. I mean there were other things that happened but it wasn’t until it got really ugly that he moved. You know my mom always said, “A hard head makes for a soft behind”….(well she used some curse words…lol) but it’s not until we fall on our behinds that will we learn. If you scared say, you scared. Ask for guidance and be open to receive it. Don’t wait until it crumbs all around you for you to make moves. Pay attention to your surroundings. The answers are there……..

AND remember if you keep chasing yesterday’s questions you will miss tomorrow’s answers……. #RealTalk

MAKE IT GREAT
