2 Corinthians 3:17
Where are you? Sometimes it’s hard to identify. But truly ask yourself, where are you? In your life, in your home, in your relationships, your job? Are you close to the Spirit of God or do these things pull you away? Do you feel deeply connected with your Spirit or are you sometimes not sure how close God really is to you? Sometimes it’s hard to know, because sometimes you want to believe He’s so close, but life makes you feel like He’s far away. You start to believe He’s not there with you. You start to ask, God why are You allowing this to happen to me? You start to ask, where am I really going? The kicker is, we must walk after the Spirit and never compromise. Otherwise, you get weaker. You become more vulnerable. More susceptible to temptation. Less in control of your flesh. And that’s not how God called us to be. With Him, there’s strength in our weakness. With Him, there’s endurance to resist temptation. With Him, there’s power and self-control. So again, I ask . . where are you? The Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is there is liberty. Wherever you are, there is a way out. And God is faithful to deliver you.
I’m living proof . . stay tuned for more.

“No temptation [regardless of its source] has overtaken or enticed you that is not common to human experience [nor is any temptation unusual or beyond human resistance]; but God is faithful [to His word—He is compassionate and trustworthy], and He will not let you be tempted beyond your ability [to resist], but along with the temptation He [has in the past and is now and] will [always] provide the way out as well, so that you will be able to endure it [without yielding, and will overcome temptation with joy].” - 1 Corinthians 10:13 (AMP)
