I try my best to be the person that God wants me to be. There are times when the evil desires of my heart try to seduce me into the darkness. As long as I am standing on my solid rock, I can cry out for help at any time - and He is faithful to answer me. I do have in me an inner peace that comes from within. A perpetual spring that when unhindered, bubbles forth and fills with joy those who are around me because of He who is working within me. I am in this race to win a prize. I am conditioning for a race and am daily beating my flesh into submission hoping one day to cross the finish line and take home the cup. The prize - the heavenward call that beckons me like a sweet sound in a far off distance - luring me closer and closer - guiding me to where I need to go. Leading me into fiery furnaces, and testing me, refining me, purifying me. I thank God for all that He is and what He has done in my life - and the work he is continuing to do.....
