Achieving energies of spiritual transformation requires an important dedication of our day to day life. Learn in the following article ways to determine how you are today to that source of innovation.
"Then the disciples came to Jesus in private and asked, “Why couldn’t we drive it out?” He replied, “Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you." Matthew 17:19-21
In our quest to make positive changes in our lives and renew our spirit, it is critical to start with our thoughts and decisions. Throughout our day to day lives, the Lord presents us with situations and allows us to meet people who guide us and show us the way forward. If we continue on the path of light and the illumination of the Holy Spirit, we can nourish and offer peace to the Father, following in His footsteps.
However, if we ignore the trials and signs that the Savior sends us, if we do not exemplify love and understanding, we will find ourselves wandering in the shadows, blind and disinterested in that which truly nourishes our lives.
"The eye is the lamp of the body. If your eyes are healthy, your whole body will be full of light." Matthew 6:22
It is crucial to be aware of how the way we perceive ourselves, our self-image, influences our actions. Each of us has a self-image that has been built up over time with our experiences. Some may have a negative self-image, blaming themselves for past actions or believing they are always wrong. Others learn from their mistakes and see every situation as an opportunity to grow.
What many overlook is that the image we have of ourselves will determine the type of path we will face. Therefore, we must ask ourselves how we can achieve a goal if we believe we do not have the capacity, or how we can grow and reach our full potential if our self-image limits us from the start.
"But blessed is the one who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him. They will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.” The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it?" Jeremiah 17:7-9
Life in the way of the Lord calls us to transform our darkness into light under God's guidance. We must turn everything negative that disturbs us into paths of improvement, overcome the obstacles that limit us to achieve excellence in all areas of our lives. This implies giving more, serving more and giving affection through actions and words to those around us, humbly serving God.
When we begin to transform our darkness into light, we begin to witness God's wonderful blessings manifesting in us. As we make the wonderful decision to walk with the Lord and support our faith with words that reflect the presence of the Most High in our existence, we demonstrate in an irrefutable way the growth and maturity in our faith and spirit achieved through God the Father.
"We all stumble in many ways. Anyone who is never at fault in what they say is perfect, able to keep their whole body in check." James 3:2
When we are able to control our words, avoiding the impulsiveness to offend or take revenge, we are also taking care of those around us and, in turn, honoring God's glory with our actions. By exercising this control over our words, we can transmit love, peace and wisdom to others, generating an atmosphere of harmony and respect.
It is essential to remember that every word we utter has an impact, both on ourselves and on those around us. Our language can be a powerful tool to edify or destroy, to heal or to hurt. Therefore, we must choose our words with wisdom and love, always seeking to glorify God and be instruments of peace in the world.
In conclusion, by transforming our darkness into light, by walking with the Lord and reflecting his presence in our lives, we can experience the greatness of his love and blessings. By controlling our words and using them to convey love and peace, we honor God and build harmonious relationships with those around us. By following the Lord's path, we can grow and reach our full potential, trusting in his guidance and relying on his infinite mercy.
