Life School with Reverend CoJo

The night before Jesus was crucified, he went up to pray, and asked the Lord to remove the task that was before him. You Annointing comes with a cost, and sometimes you have have to walk some things out that less than ideal, but that God, that trials work patience, and patience works hope. Where there is hope, there is life.

Often we trust a willing ear, but be aware who you're letting know your most intimate secrets. For the right price they may be willing to share the things you find most valuable. 

In seasons where God speaks, and I don't agree, I have found myself guilty of bargaining with God. So When he speaks it takes me far to long to move. In 2018, it is my sincere goal to be imeadiately obedient to the voice of God. I don't want to miss the rhythm he has set in motion for my life, I want what he has for me now.

Where do we draw the line, or do we draw the line? Can we truly have it all, and still have the pleasing appreciation of God. Do we have to give up things to gain acceptance with God. What do I have to do to get my stamp of Approval. Let's talk about it.

So you're ready to make a change. You're gung ho about making this life so much better. You're in this thing, and now you split down the middle."Why don't you know what to do?" You know what's right, but your body is telling what it wants. Why is this happening? What is happening.

Whenever we get ready to shift something in your life it creates a tug of war between your flesh and your soul.

Entering the end of the year, here in a few weeks everyone is about to start making new years resolutions. I want to challenge you to make your resolutions now. There is no better time than today. Why wait a month, when you could be a month in by the time the new year comes in. A new year does not automatically mean a new you. A new you is contingent upon you deciding to change. So will you change?

I grew up around firement, and handymen as well as businessmen alike. One cool thing about the firemen is that there is this tool called the Jaws of Life. The Jaws of Life can cut open even the most binding of situations. They cut through cars and entrapments as if it were child's play. 

Sometimes we need to be that for other people. Sometimes we need to be willing to cover those we care for. For some reason we are programmed to be all about ourselves, but every now and then we have to step outside of our own self seeking motives and hold it down for someone else why they try to regroup.

In a world where people can be unsure whether or not they ever found the grounds to terminate a relationhship, some of us leave things unsaid in the event we wish to reenter someone's life. IN relaity the best way is to exit in a way that a re-entrance would be accepted. When you just dissappear you stir up so many emotions that the you return probably will be received with a skeptical heart.

Have you ever gotten so upset with God, that you ghost him (or try to)? You don't want to to do anything because a few things in your life have fallen out of place. What if those were the moments that you truly could wax strong in God, or you could get further from him. The complete choice yours, what will you do with it?

Healthy relationship typically have one common ingredient, good communications. Inspite of this one fact we seem to run for the hills when comes to having hard, uncomfortable conversations. The conversations that are the hardest tend to yield the most fruit, that's why they are so difficult. As always say, if you can talk about it, you can fix it. Fixing it isn't always reconciliation. Sometimes fixing it is walking away. Sometimes fixing it is new beginning, and sometimes fixing it places you in a better place than ever before. You'll never know though if you don't sit down and try.
