How free do you want to be?

Before you step into a situation, look in the mirror at your own heart and see if you are not the problem.

We are all amazing at avoiding things. But what happens when avoiding turns into consistent running from issues that are inevitable to repeat history in our lives?

Usually when we are facing areas in our life that seem to be out of immediate control we try to tell ourselves well this part of my life is amazing and epic so I'll just stay over here and if that other part shows up, I'll just numb it with something else.

You see the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak.

Our minds and body want to run from everything that is uncomfortable , painful and difficult in every moment. Which seems like a great strategy for temporary band aid issues for relief.

But in fact what these types of continuous decisions do is conform us to a life of running.

And if we keep on the run we never learn to deal with what's inside or right in front of us. This being at the mercy of our fears and strong holds.
