This was a place in my journal where I would evaluate myself before God based on the revelations from my personal Bible study. I would seek intervention from God and express a desire to be better for Him. I was humbly seeking help from the Lord. Each entry was a humble plea that reflected a deep need for self-development and maturity.

At random points in the day, a thought will come to me. Sometimes it challenges me. Sometimes it tries to shake me. I pause. I speak. I correct it. I say what needs to be said, like I am standing on a podium, but it is just me, and I am listening. This is an opportunity to pour back into myself through the help of the Holy Spirit. And now, you get to read them here.

Sometimes, you just need a verse. It feels like an extra push, a hand stretched out, or a strengthening of the very ground I walk on. God never misses with these verses. They shift my perspective, speak to exactly where I am, and remind me that He sees me.
