When I first joined SR, a couple of posters really called me out. They knew me better then I knew myself.
I was told...God gave me the oars but I needed to row my own boat. God was not going to just come and "fix" me. He would should me the way, walk with me, but ultimately I had to take the first step. I resisted!! Working on me was too overwhelming and I would want to go back to my "comfort" zone of denial and pray that God would perform a miracle. They continued to call me out (and still do). I needed it, I hated it, I wanted it, I listened, and I ignored, until I finally surrendered to the truth.
When I finally started working on me and saw small changes, I started getting excited. I have a long way to go, I still mess up a lot but I still have my oars and will keep roaring...at my own pace.
So get your oars in the water and lets start rowing.
