A Sincere Admittance

I adore Jesus' lovely heart and His Spirit, who is always at our disposal and trying to release us from the chains of sin that choke out our souls, ruin our lives, sabotage our relationships with others, give the devil strength, and provide an opportunity for shame.

I absolutely adore how the Lord can use adversity to sharpen our spiritual senses and make us conscious of the ways in which we have permitted sin to enter our lives. He has taken care of me in this way, and I am really appreciative.

I have been harboring some unbelieving attitudes in my heart for a while now, but I have ignored them until recently. Until my current struggle humbled me, I disregarded the Holy Spirit's promptings to refrain from speaking negatively or judgmentally about other people. This is how I became accustomed to acting in an ungodly manner.

My heart was broken, and I'm so happy about it, as the Lord used my suffering to make me utterly dependent on Him for recovery and victory! Upon realizing my transgression, I started to reflect on my thoughts and emotions towards other people. I was made aware of my alignment with the devil and my pride-based admission of his presence in my life by my critical and pessimistic thoughts. Despite my grief, which stems from my desire to avoid hurting people or breaking Jesus' heart, I am incredibly grateful for the discipline. I've begged Christ to wash away all impurities from my heart and to constantly remind me of the easy way pride might enter.

I would like to give you encouragement. You can always rely on the guidance, correction, and advice of the Holy Spirit. He is always prepared to correct us and set us back on the correct course—one that honors Jesus, is safe and beneficial for us, and is brimming with love and holiness. You don't need to face a challenging obstacle in order to become humble and willing to listen. Make the humble choice now. Elect to pay attention to the Lord today. Inquire of Him whether there is any sin you should give up or any place where He isn't being exalted as Lord.

In order to become more like Christ, you can also ask a dependable friend or partner who cares about you and loves you what needs to be changed.

You will be free and love will take the place of sin when you acknowledge and release your transgressions. affection for other people. Love for Jesus beyond everything else. Love for yourselves.
