Changing for the Right Reason

About this ebook
The most difficult part of changing involves the exploration of your inner world. True change cannot just occur on the surface or your outer being. Change has to do with the renewal of ones mind and inner being. It has to reflect in your way of thoughts, deeds, and actionsa lifestyle. Change means not only understanding who you are but also why you are who you are and how to walk in change.
The first step you must take in order to be transformed is to identify the obstacles that are preventing you from changing. You need to look in the mirror, which is the Word of God. Its only through the Word of God that you can realize the need for God.
The Word of God is not to point ones floss but to reveal to us how God has already made us in himself. When we encounter the Word of God, it necessitates change and convicts us. It opens our eyes to specify what the baggage, habits, emotions, and environment are and how they are keeping us from changing; it opens our eyes to realize our downfalls.
Understanding these obstacles takes out the fear in you and what has been holding you back. It also gives you clarity on what you need to change and gives you the direction in your path of change. Then you can begin the change process.
These explorations of your inner world can enable you to fully understand why you have been the way you have been and done things you have done even when neither have worked for you. (So thats why Ive been this way all of my life!) This process will also help you to remove the obstacles that have stood in your path to change.
Isaac Val Ayisi
Most importantly, changes bring a new perspective; they give you the chance to see things from another point of view and with that advantage, assess situations with more clarity. The story is based on the Author, a boy who had a dream of becoming a pastor one day, who believed he had a calling from God at the age of 11 years. This same boy started drinking at the age of 14 years and started smoking at the age of 16 years and started fraud and credit card scams at the age of 21 years and at the age of 25 years, he felt he had the world at his feet. “If you hold yourself dear then guard, guard yourself well. The wise person would stay awake nursing himself in any of the three watches of the night, the three stages of life. First he’d settle himself in what is correct, only then teach others. He wouldn’t stain his name: he is wise”
