Has someone close and dear to you rebuked you? <\/p>\n

Have they pointed out your mistakes and flaws?
\n<\/p>\n

Has this made \u200b\u200byou think and get angry with yourself?<\/p>\n

Did you change?<\/p>\n

Maybe you\u2019ve even realized your mistake and how it has caused you problems and you\u2019ve even began to change, but over time when problems and challenges arise you begin to become desperate and ” forget” the reason for the change and return to be the same way.<\/p>\n

Actually, you didn\u2019t really change, it was pure emotion, you were like a balloon that loses air little by little and then deflates.<\/p>\n

It’s like a vicious cycle, you become frustrated and worst of all now you\u2019re aware of your mistake and aren\u2019t able to change.<\/p>\n

Until when will you be this way?<\/p>\n

Until I see my mistake, my state, my inner being with my own eyes and how it really affects me and realize how much I need to change.<\/p>\n

If anyone tells me about my mistake, they may even convince me of it, but if I don\u2019t recognize it and see myself as a “soul ” I won\u2019t truly change. I won\u2019t remain.<\/p>\n

I will only change and transform my situation if it\u2019s revealed to me by God, and I recognize my mistake and need to change. It’s something personal. I\u2019m the one who needs to change! I shouldn\u2019t change because someone else wants me to, but because I need to.<\/p>\n

Then yes … When I realize it and see with my own eyes I become an eyewitness of my mistakes, my flaws and I will also be the first to witness my transformation. This is the result of an intelligent, perseverant and personal faith.<\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
