No one likes change, No one likes leaving what has become comfortable. But what if you came to realization that this season has come to end. You have come to the end and you MUST see what the season has taught you. Come to means with it... And what I mean by that, is you don't necessarily have to regret or like everything you have done. You learn from the mistakes, you learn from the memories, you learn from the hate and mainly you SEEK the love that was given.
The season that I have come to "end" really hasn't come to an end.. its more like it's shedding layers of old skins and finding the original layer and foundation of "TIA"... The Tia that was in love with missions and being a counselor and being involved in church.
I don't know what has happened. I lost sight of a lot of things. I handle things the wrong way. I spent WAY too much money on things that didn't last. I'm finding my way back. I may have made mistakes, but there are many things that I would have never changed. They were meant to happen. They made me think outside the box, and made me see things in a different light.
Lord, I Need You- I need your guidance. I don't like change. I don't like feeling like this. I don't know what is coming next. I don't know where I should go. I don't know what to hold on to, or let go? I want to know where I should go at this fork in the road. Move me in the direction I need to go. Put a passion back in me to seek your will and not my own personal plans. My plans have lead me to worry, pain, and exhaustion. My plans have failed me. God, your plans ALWAYS prevail over mine and everyone else's. Lord you know my heart and where my true passion lies. I pray I become the woman of God I was. I pray I lose these chains I have to areas in my life. Lord I want to learn from them and move on toward better things. Please tell me where to go. I'm lost without you. I need you to take this pain, this hurt, this exhaustion. I'm weak and need your strength, no one else's will do for me.
-I'm ready- Are you? ( Proverbs 19:21 Many are the plans in a person’s heart, but it is the LORD’s purpose that prevails.)
I know this is a random post, but this verse has been on my heart all day:
A Time for Everything
1 There is a time for everything,and a season for every activity under the heavens:
2 a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
3 a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
4 a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
5 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,
6 a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
7 a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
8 a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.

Where are you in this time?
Very nicely written, Tia. I'm entering a new season of my life as well... The change is both scary and exciting. I know God has great things planned in both of our lives. I will be praying for you as you enter this new season. <3
