Rising Above the Turbulence of Pain: A Journey of Faith and Vision

Life often throws us into the midst of turbulence, where pain and challenges seem insurmountable. But it is precisely in these moments that we find our true strength and resilience. Let me share how I have risen above the turbulence of pain and how you can too.

The Anointing of Faith

Is the pouring of the anointing by the pouring of the oil upon your head? For me, it has been about embracing the spiritual anointing that comes from a deep connection with the Creator, God. I have learned to use the Creator as my helper, drawing on the immense power of His existence to guide and uplift me.

The Light of Vision

Is it the light of your vision? Or is it the shining flame of His light? For me, it’s both. The vision I hold for my life is illuminated by the shining flame of His light. It’s this divine light that has shown me the path even in the darkest times, giving me the clarity and strength to move forward.

Faith Over Pity

Not begging for pity but using your faith is crucial. Instead of succumbing to self-pity, I have leaned on my faith. This faith has been my anchor, my source of unwavering strength. It’s a reminder that I am not alone, and neither are you. By holding onto faith, we can wait for the mighty wind to call us faithful.

The Power of Prayer

Begin to use your voice of prayer, and He will pull you up from the lion’s den. Prayer has been my lifeline, a direct line to divine intervention and support. In the face of adversity, I have found solace and power in prayer. It’s through this connection that we can rise above our challenges, knowing that a higher power (GOD) is at work.

A Path to Your Better Self

Through my journey, I have also dedicated myself to inspiring others. I create journals to help people evaluate their lifestyles and become their better selves. It’s a way of giving back and encouraging others to embark on their own paths of transformation.

Building a Vision

In addition to my personal journey, I’m excited to share that I am starting a bookkeeping business called Setpoint Data. This venture is not just about numbers; it’s about helping others organize their lives and businesses, enabling them to focus on what truly matters. It’s another way I am using my skills and vision to uplift others.

Embrace Your Journey

We all have our lion’s den moments, but it’s in these moments that we discover our true strength. Embrace your journey, use your faith, and let the light of your vision guide you. Remember, you are not alone, and with the Creator (GOD) as your helper, you can rise above any turbulence.

Faith Cometh

Believe it or not 2020 has come and gone, it brought so many people into 2021 a sad beginning, and our hearts totally goes out to those that are hurting because they’ve lost a loved one or a dear friend. Now we only have a memory of how things used to be, thinking on the good things we smile, thinking how much we miss them we cry. I lost an uncle, the life of every party, and a lot of close friends. But many of my family members got COVID-19; we were so blessed to make it through. Unexpectedly the virus still hangs around seeking whom it can devour.  

          Some of us need a visual presentation to have faith in God; oh the flowers are so beautiful this year, God is good. What level of faith in God is this? Because the flowers come back every year at the same time and they are as beautiful as the year before, it’s their due season and we are so thankful for them. But to see what has transpired in our world these few months shook everybody and God was our witness. Because it’s kind of hard to understand what has happened, never believe that God allowed this because he is angry with us.

          I’m asking God the Father right now to build our faith from little faith, to greater faith, then perfect our faith to be obedient to him as He helps us to learn what this is all about. I’ve thought about this long and hard, what has this done to our faith or for our faith? But the word of god has made it so clear that faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God.  So when we study to hear the word of God it builds our faith from little faith, to greater faith and then perfected faith in God.
