RENEWED

And then it hit me...

For the longest time, I have been earthly and selfish. I have been away from my spiritual family and I haven't attended church religiously.

But this year's Holy Week has made me realize how neglectful I have become and has sparked the dire need for me to start living according to His ways. It is the Holy Spirit at work, I should say.

Looking back, I have devoted my life and surrendered everything to HIM. But I felt guilty of my sins that's why I moved away from the Christian beliefs. I should say that I also lost those people whom I have walked the Christian life with that was why it was easy for me to turn my back.

I am working on quitting smoking. I used to quit because a person would tell me to do so. This time I am doing it for me, since our body is the temple of the holy spirit. Prayers will be my shield whenever I would have the urge to smoke.

I have to sustain this fire in me. Otherwise, I would end up going back to being earthly and selfish again. After all, he deserves all the praise and worship.

I am not completely renewed but I am a work in progress. And I pray that you also have a very meaningful Lent Season.

Psalm 51:10 "Create in me a pure heart, Oh God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me."

HAPPY EASTER!!!
