 Has this ever been you?

 
getting caught gazing out, allowing lies to creep in. . . thinking things are so much brighter on the other side?
 
Or. . .

 
wearing the shoes that are too big . . . so badly wanting something you aren't quite ready for?
and then before long. . .
 
 
You find yourself in a STICKY mess!
 
It wasn't that long ago I lived here. . . a place I never want to take up residence again. . . I still find myself visiting every now and then.
So thankful God is faithful. . . He is ALWAYS there.
 
"The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure." 1 Corinthians 10:13
 
 
reminding me that he is a Promise Keeper! Fixing my eyes back on him.
 
"Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect." Romans 12:2

"For the wisdom of this world is foolishness to God. As the Scriptures say, “He traps the wise in the snare of their own cleverness.”  1 Corinthians 3:19

I feel like a spiritual toddler much of the time. . .
 
being caught in a potentially dangerous situation and having to be redirected.
 
"The LORD directs our steps, so why try to understand everything along the way?" Proverbs 20:24
 
Thank you God for never giving up. . .
never letting go of your children.
