As I am visiting with my son on my 61st birthday, I am reflecting on the past few years...decades to be honest. I am in awe of God's fingerprints on my life, and there are a few things that stand out the most...
Spiritual Inheritance Is Greater Than Earthly Inheritance - I must remember who and Whose I am and with patience and perseverance, remember my inheritance in God. God is faithful to who He is and will take care of me no matter what! He is always faithful!
God Truly Does Love Me...Still - I now know that I am loved...really loved...by God. He really, and truly, does love ME - Lita Aleese. It doesn’t matter how I was born or conceived. It doesn't matter the ways or how many times I have missed it. I am now truly secure in God’s love and therefore I choose to no longer fall for, or settle for, less than His best.
Confidence Is Beautiful - This was a surprise revelation for me. I started following and acknowledging God in all of my ways and...my confidence grew! I started loving who I was. I had to do the work to get there and it didn’t happen overnight, but I now love who I am and that has given me confidence!
Boundaries Out, Boundaries In - For a long time I just took what life and people gave or allowed me. I had to learn to set boundaries for myself and stay firm because I oftentimes settled and consistently broke my own boundaries. Now I know my value, and I respect myself as a priority so it is easier to respect and defend my set boundaries.
NOT YET, Is A Hiding Place For Unbelief - When you come from years of low self image, procrastination becomes a task you have to continually work at overcoming. My growth, deliverance and salvation came through worship. I go to that place when I have thoughts or feelings of insecurity. In that place, I am revived and I can remind myself... "Lita, you can do all things through Him who strengthens You."
