As I began my journaling this morning I was reflecting on Christ’s presence during the day yesterday. Leaning into Him and trusting Him seemed easy. When the topic of fear and helplessness came up in sessions it was tied to childhood hurt in the life of the one seeking help. We were able to point this out and how to take different steps of trust rather than steps into the fear.
I was thanking God for the insights yesterday from His Holy Spirit when He asked me when I was going to take His insights personally? That little person I was helping others see in themselves which led the fear they were seeking to overcome, was also something I know well. However, in this morning’s journaling God was pointing out where I still have some of this myself. As I concluded my journaling I thanked Jesus for His insights and that I’d likely need to do just as He pointed out. It was then I was addressed one more time about “likely needed”. God wasn’t making a suggestion to me, I needed to do this, not likely needed to. I then asked for forgiveness and wrote that I will do this. Building my own complete TRUST is still growing. Little Earnie still shows up in me at times and growing him into me today will continue likely for the rest of my life.
HOW PATIENT AND FAITHFUL OUR LOVING FATHER IS!
