Keep Moving Forward

Yesterday I wrote about people being judgmental. I didn't want to come across sad by writing what I wrote. I was just speaking of my current experience. I know there are others that may be experiencing the same type of situations and I want everybody to know no matter where you came from in life, no matter what anybody says about you, no matter how you feel at the moment, God loves you regardless. You are a child of God and you are worthy. It does not matter how you are feeling inside. As hard as it is, it is important not to follow your feelings, don't let them control you and your actions. If you are having any type of negative feelings inside such as sadness, depression, anger, worthless, weary or any other type of feeling that does not make you feel very good on the inside, it is not from God! Them bad feelings are from the enemy! The enemy wants you to feel worthless and keep your head down at all times. The enemy wants you to be alone; the enemy wants you to be the old person because he doesn't like when people move forward with their lives and get close to God. Keep moving forward!
Don't listen to anybody that doubts you. Don't let any of their negativity get inside of you. Some people say things to others to stop them from succeeding or stop them from what they are being called to do by God. People have a hard time changing and sometimes they have a difficult time seeing others that are close to them change. Why? They are comfortable with the way things are and because they have no intention on changing they feel everybody around them should remain the same also. Do you know what I say to this? Keep moving forward!

Romans 12:2 (NIT)
Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is- His good pleasing and perfect will.

Proverbs 24:20 (NIT)
Do not envy the wicked, do not desire their company;
for their hearts plot violence, 
and their lips talk about making trouble.

Don't Judge

People are constantly judging people everyday. It's funny because they don't want others to judge them but they are judging others themselves. Since becoming a Christian and trying to live as the new me, I've been watching who my close friends are because I want to be sure that I surround myself with positive people that aren't going to try bringing me down but, am I being judgmental? I find it very difficult because I feel like I am bring judged by the people that I would love to be friends with and grow in my faith with. Why is it so difficult to have healthy relationships? Can it be because nobody trusts me because I am a new Christian? Do I have to watch everything I say to people because they may get offended or they are judging me by what I am saying? So many people speak to me at church but that is as far as it goes. I see church faces and 'we should get together' but that is all. I feel very judged at the place most would think you wouldn't be judged. I know I am worthy and I know it is their issue that they must be so judgmental. Perhaps there is no room in their circle of friends. Perhaps I don't have a nice house or nice car or a wonderful job like they have. I am thankful that I have a place to live and a car that drives me to work each day. I have had a rough life for most of my life especially when I had to grow up when I was just 15 years old because I became pregnant and from there till about 28 years old I lived a pretty wild life full of sin from drugs, alcohol, promiscuity, homosexuality and more...That was the old me. I am grateful that God has forgiven me for everything and that He loves me unconditionally regardless of what I have or don't have. I love God so much! 
     I have come to the conclusion that the best thing I can do to gain meaningful relationships that actually grow is to pray about it. I have to ask God to help bring the right people in front of me. I have to trust in God more and allow Him to do His work instead of myself trying so hard to be friends with everybody and getting hardly any results in return. I am a child of God and deserve the best of friends for sure, everybody does! God wants us to love everybody and not judge because we will be judged. So next time when someone asks for you to join them for a coffee maybe you should be glad to join them even if your schedule is really busy, make time, spend 30 minutes if that's all you have at that time. It can mean the world to that person. Don't think you are better than anybody. We are supposed to be lifting people up, not bringing them down. We are supposed to be encouraging others, not discouraging. So, next time a new friend asks for some company, don't judge!

Matthew 7:1-2 NLT
"Do not judge others, and you will not be judged. For you will be treated as you treat others. The standard you use in judging is the standard by which you will be judged.

John 7:24 KJV
 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment.

Psalms 32:10 KJV
Many sorrows shall be to the wicked: but he that trusteth in the Lord, mercy shall compass him about.
